Alison thinks she is just making pleasant smalltalk while waiting for the bus. Something about the weather, something about her favorite TV show... yada yada. What she doesn't realize is that the only words spilling out of her mouth are "I am deeply brainwashed" and that the "stranger" is her hypnotic mistress Kate. In her mind, she is outside sitting on a park bench. But in reality, she was naked, hidden deep within Kate's lair. Alison is still jesticulating like she's having an actual conversation, oblivious to her own mindless droning.

"And, Bus"

Kate snaps her fingers.

In her mind's eye, she sees herself waving goodbye and getting on the bus. The imaginary bus of hypnotic trance pulls away, leaving Alison's naked body abandoned, vacant, staring off into nothingness while sinking deeper into the couch. Alison never even knew she was hypnotized.
