Wiper motor runs, but wipers wont move (wtf)

Long story short, was on the way home night market with the GF...

Half way home the wipers get stuck at highest position.I pull over and restart the car, turn wipers on...nothing.

I get outta the car, I can hear the motor working; but the wipers just wont "connect" with the motor. So yeah, had to drive for awhile without wipers. Hoping for anyone with a similar experience to shine some light on this.

Car is a '99 infiniti G20...
