[Rob Voiceover] This is my fortress of solitude.

Anonymous couch.

anonymous room,

anonymous hotel,

a gauntlet of trolls.

I must be hungry

I always get these thoughts when I'm hungry.

The city,

this city is a labyrinth

designed to mock me.

No.

Don't try to get out.

Look, I have to leave

I'm starving I can't stay in here all day.

I can leave, I can leave.

Who's that man?

Is that a hot dog?

New York hot dog,

the kind that makes you fall in love.

You don't need a hot dog,

there's some ham in the minibar.

Where?

Look in then, you already ate it?

I already ate the salami, but I'm starving.

(multiple overlapping inner voices)

(match flaring)

(midtempo music)

Oh my god!

(frightened wail)

[Rob Voiceover] Who was that man?

Where was that man?

(inner voices whispering)

The man with the hot dog.

Walk of shame, walk of shame, walk of shame.

It was Teen Wolf.

No, he was definitely--

[Rob Voiceover] She's mocking you.

I need to find the man with the hot dog.

You don't know where the hot dog's from,

you don't know anything about hot dogs,

who're you trying to fool?

It's fine, just hail a taxi.

He can't whistle, he wasn't a kid.

Just put out your hand,

put out your hand like a normal person.

You can be like a real New Yorker.

How does this happen to me?

Where am I?

Just use use my phone.

Use my phone and make it come to you,

make it come to you, no confrontation.

This was supposed to be easy.

Seal myself back in the bubble.

(sighing with relief)

Now I can breathe.

I'm going to die.

You could have eaten in any of these places,

look there's a brunch place right there.

You can have pizza, you can have anything you want.

Come on, stick to the plan, walk to the hot dog store.

Where is the man with the hot dog?

Does anyone know where to get a hot dog?

Just ask someone.

That's an ice cream, do you not know what an ice cream is?

You don't know where the hot dog's from.

(inner voices garbled)

(triumphant music)

Wait, wait, is that what I think it is?

It is, this is the place.

It looks just like I imagined.

I've done it.

I've done it, a New York hot dog.

I found it for myself.

I knew it, I knew it,

I knew I was just a normal human being.

You can call me Rob, I eat hot dogs!
