Scarlet Meets a Friend & Can’t Start Car

After meeting an old friend of mine, I’m glad to be leaving.  He wasn’t anything like I remembered.  I turn the key to start the Bronco, but it only turns over without catching.  Just great!  I’m ready to get back home after wasting all this time, and now I can’t get the vehicle to start!  I really pump the gas and hope it’ll start for me – soon.  I don’t want passers-by stopping and asking if I need help because it’s already embarrassing enough.
