Mr. Meek:

"LOL, nobody buys radar detectors. They've never kept up with police technology ."

The Shark:

"You're right. It has become an arms race. And a bloody one at that. The quiescent status quo days of the 90s, where a Valentine One and some plate mask would get you on a cannonball run from San Fran. to NY in thirty-six hours flat, only you and the road and the sun and the moon, cool as ice inside the cockpit of your jet black NSX, the roar of its V6 the chorus of your conquest -- they're long gone. In 2014, you need to have some form of offensive signals capability on your vehicle to be truly safe. That means active radar jamming, signature misdirection, even supersonic incapacitation."

The Shark:

"Sure. Follow me."

{Exits out onto the tarmac near the bay for his jet. Walking in unison now.}

"I have an old friend I want you to meet."

{Mr. Meek's mouth agape}

"That's my girl. Did the run in 36 hours back in '94."

{Traces a finger lovingly over the surface of the car. Pauses in reminiscence. Then resumes.}

"She's been retrofitted with the latest technology. Derringer X Activescan. Stealth Camouflage Mark V. And the Raptor Active Intruder Interdiction System -- she'll pulp a brain from 5,000 meters out -- that one's my own invention. She's ready for another run. Are you?"

{Silence}

{laughs derisively} "Get in."

{They enter the car}

"Let's fire her up."

{The engine starts to life with a glorious roar.}

"Hope you don't mind -- I like driving music."

"Old school, as they say."

{http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAgnJDJN4VA starts up; the car jets away down the tarmac to the waiting highway}
