I feel like the insurance company tracking device being disconnected at the gas station is the biggest clue. She had to have done that on purpose. For some reason, she didn't want it known where she was going.
Maybe she really did tell people she was going to the Shady Lady and *she* was the one doing the misdirecting.
And why be "adamant" about going to the gas station? That's a weird way to phrase it. Even if she was low on gas she'd just say "First thing I've gotta do is get gas, my gas light came on 30 miles ago", not "I'm going to the gas station and you can't stop me! I will absolutely be at a gas station!"
I think she went away on purpose. But, she may be staying
I've been out for a while and just caught up. I read several posts suggesting it's weird that Toni was "adamant" about going to a gas station or a specific gas station.
However, I think it depends on the conversation.
Let's say a manager says to Toni, "Ice is in the forecast, you're going right home, right?"
And Toni responds, "No, I have to get gas."
The manager pushes her, "Can't you get it tomorrow?"
"No, my tank is low...I'm just going to go quick down to [location] and then get home/wherever I'm going."
Earlier in one of the previous threads, some KC locals said that many gas stations in the area wouldn't be considered safe, but QTs were usually well lit and busy...making them safer. So I could also see the manager being concerned about her safety and trying to ask/suggest where she might get gas quickly/safely.
In high school and immediately after graduating, I worked in a restaurant (a legitimate restaurant; didn't even serve alcohol) that was open 24 hours a day. I am a petite female and when I left alone, to drive out into the night for any reason, coworkers, customers, and for sure managers regularly advised me to "be safe" etc.
