Sequence of events

The sequence of a story is always the same: Hook and Lightning McQueen stand together and see a certain situation, an object or a vehicle in Radiator Springs. Hook then says he once had a corresponding profession or activity. Lightning then doubts it, whereupon Hook begins to tell the story. From then on, the viewer no longer sees Hook and Lightning in Radiator Springs, but the story unfolds. Then at some point in history the situation worsens with no prospect of success. Then we see Hook and Lightning again briefly in Radiator Springs where Lightning asks: “And what happened then?”, To which Hook replies: “You don't remember? But you were there! " Now the viewer sees the story again in which Lightning suddenly appears. Together they live the story to the end. Finally, the viewer sees Hook and Lightning again in Radiator Springs, where Lightning says: "Hook, that never happened!". Finally, one sees a key element of the story in Radiator Springs, suggesting that the story (at least in essence) may be true.
