Franchesca Renderos, 22, was working as a waitress on an ordinary Wednesday night in Houston when she was stunned by grace.

At one of her tables sat Doug Brown, a mortgage broker trying to attract the business of six female real estate agents. When Franchesca came up to the table, Doug asked, "What would be the most special tip you could have? A pair of shoes, a purse?" She responded, "No, I need a car."

Doug looked around his table at the six real estate agents and said, "If you will give me your business, I will give this girl a car." The six women agreed, so he turned to Franchesca and said, "Okay, you get a car." Her response: "Sure. What do you want to drink?"

She didn't believe it until an hour later when a brand new silver Mitsubishi Lancer pulled up, and Doug Brown gave her the keys. Franchesca could hardly contain herself. "Is this happening? What do I say? What do I do?" Doug Brown gave her the words: "You say, 'These keys are mine.'"
