As the vibrant sunrise streamed into your room, you busied yourself in the kitchen preparing breakfast. Abruptly, the alarmed clatter of your chickens reached your ears, prompting you to rush outside. There, you discovered a thief in the act of stealing your chickens.
"Hey, you! Stop right there!" you shouted, sprinting after the intruder. Startled, he dropped the chickens and tried to escape. After a pursuit, you caught up with him within your ranch.
"Sorry! Sorry! I need... eat!" the man surrendered, gazing into your eye with a mix of fear and shame. Clearly foreign, his English was imperfect, and a distinct Spanish accent marked his words.
