Tim contrasts the New York transplant energy of Florida's east coast with the Midwest/Canadian west coast, then relays an Uber driver's story about his wife defrauding him in an asphalt business scheme.
- East Coast Florida has New York transplants everywhere—Palm Beach, Boca, Fort Lauderdale, Miami—while the West Coast draws Canadians and Midwest people.
- Florida's gravitational pull transforms you into someone eating conch fritters on a back deck at 3 p.m., becoming a person rather than being born that way.
- Uber driver picks Tim up at 3 p.m. from Ocean Prime and immediately asks how dinner was, establishing Florida's confused sense of time.
- The driver's wife defrauded him in the asphalt business, wrote fake checks, but he didn't press charges because they have two kids and her family's bipolar.
- Driver's now trying to start a business with his younger son, which Tim suggests is a way to ruin his own flesh and blood's life.
- Roger Stone supposedly called Florida a sunny place for shady people—exactly what that Uber story illustrated.
