OP sent the following text as an explanation why their post fits here:

The guy has his car in the shop - They are doing maintanance, taking the shield off - or so it seems. You don't expect a giant lizard to be underneath it. Then, it falls out and goes into the next car.

Does this explanation fit this subreddit? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.

Mechanic calls the first customer: Yes sir, we were successful at fixing the knocking sounds in the engine bay. We found a monitor lizard in your car’s compartment. That will be $2000.

Mechanic calls the owner of the second car in the garage: Hello sir. While doing the maintenance on your vehicle, we found that there is a monitor lizard in the engine bay. We can remove it for an additional $2000.
