Annie also tries to prevent Helen from leaving the bus, and Helen says that she can't stay.

Specifically the earliest passing conversation I noticed was between Annie and Helen (not counting their initial interaction where they simply say “Hi” to each other, but that technically would pass too). The conversation that definitely passes is 0:33.38-50:

Helen: “I just couldn’t handle the freeways anymore. I got so tense. This way I can just relax all the way to work.”
Annie: “Yeah, well, I love my car. I miss my car.”
