Beowulf's response to Blowtorch
I can't believe you have to ask me this.
This guy was coming up the ramp when his car was
finally forced off the road. You didn't see the other
car that had forced him off the road because the
sable black 3Z had already raced off into the night.
Clutching his shoulder (which ached from the bullet
wound where he was grazed during the shootout at
the world bank building), the guy leaned over to
pop the trunk. Releasing the trunk not only caused
the back to pop open, but
A) triggered the satellite tracking system located in the secret compartment
in the glove box,
B) allowed the small carrier pigeon in the trunk to escape and return to
the V2 headquarters bearing a short encoded message vital
to the national security of botswana, and
C) gave the man access to the trunk.
He opened the door, taking care not to trip the wire
that would blow up the 4 sticks of C4 wired to his
seat (the rig had been placed there by the secret
underground society of nigeria, which isn't all that
close to botswana but that's not important right now).
Closing the door, he went back to the trunk and took
out the blow torch and was just about to go around to
the passenger side and weld the door shut so nobody
could get to the teeny tiny eentcy weentcy itty bitty
bottle containing the cure to cancer which, without
the proper combination of chlorine, alkalides and
bananas, could simultaneously cause a species-jumping
variety of ebola rockville to break out.
But that's another story!
You mean that wasn't obvious to you?
