Meanwhile...

"Finn, I have good and bad news," Sid interjected.

"Oh? The good?" Finn asked, waking up from a nap instantly.

"We're about to touch down in Paris," Sid said. A brief jolt upon landing confirmed it.

"Excellent. And the bad?" Finn asked.

Sid responded by gradually turning up the volume on their police radio.

"Tous les officiers de la zone, la Banque nationale de Paris a été violée. Dépêchez-vous et venez ici immédiatement." the radio blared.

"Translation?" Finn asked.

"All officers in the area. The National Bank of Paris has been breached. Dispatch and report here immediately." Sid translated.

"Damnit, we're too late." Finn said to himself.

"W-whats going on?" Dash said, waking up from a loud snore and stumbling.

"Sid, what's our best ETA?" Finn asked.

"Together?" Sid asked.

"No, alone. Yes, together." Finn barked.

"An hour." Sid notified.

"Damnit, we won't get them on time," Finn exclaimed.

"What happened? Damnit, did they do it already?" Dash questioned.

"It would appear so," Finn confirmed.

"What?!" Dash yelled out.

"Huh?! I'm awake, I'm awake!" Demetria stumbled, waking up herself.

"Well, what the hell do we do?" Dash barked.

"We can't get there in time." Finn notified.

"What? What do you mean we can't get there in time?" Dash exclaimed.

"ETA is an hour," Sid interjected.

"An hour?!" Dash sighed, thinking to himself.

"Look, we need to think strategically here," Finn affirmed.

"I should refrain that ETA together is an hour." Sid refrained.

"Sid!" Finn barked.

"Damnit, I'm gonna have to take matters into my own tires," Dash whispered to himself, getting up.

"Uhh, Dash? What's going on?" a jetlagged Demetria asked.

"Boltarius, sit down." Finn requested sternly.

"None of us will get there in time together... but I can." Dash reckoned.

"Boltarius, no! It's too dangerous. We'll be compromising the mission! Besides, you're in too uncertain of a state." Finn warned.

"I'm the best chance we got at stopping them from escaping," Dash affirmed.

"C'mon, hot rod. Don't just race off. We gotta think this through together." Demetria perked up.

"Look, the more we sit around and think it through, the less of a chance we'll have at getting a lead. I won't let that happen." Dash stated.

"Mr. Boltarius has a point," Sid added.

"Why are you agreeing with him, Siddeley?" Finn asked sternly.

"With his immense speed, his personal ETA to Banque Nationale would be a quarter of the time it'd take for you to get there together." Sid notified.
