7:00pm.
Alexander, Carmen & Casper are still in Casper's safe house going over plans.
Alexander: okay, this play won't be secure forever, but the streets are gonna stay hot for awhile, our best bet is to lay low here and when the time is right we'll head to Axel's garage. We should be safe there for awhile.
Casper: sounds like a plan.
Carmen: how long do you think we'll be waiting?
Alexander: at least another few hours, maybe a day. Marino has connections with the police, he probably has them looking for us right now.
Carmen: as if the cops weren't already pissed off at us from earlier.
Alexander: to be fair, I told you that was dangerous.
Carmen: true, but it still worked... mostly.
Casper: guys, I'm not sure this place will stay hidden for another day. My scanners are showing that there's already multiple squad cars patrolling the nearby neighborhoods. It's only a matter of time.
Alexander: I know, but leaving now is too risky, we can't chance leading them to the other safe house.
Casper: we also can't risk them finding us here.
Carmen: so what should we do?
Casper: I'm telling you, we should leave now!
Alexander: how the hell do we get out without being seen?
Casper: we can split up.
Alexander: no way, we'll get caught.
Casper: if we do get caught, we'll lose the heat, and meet up at Axel's.
Alexander: no way, that's too risky. One of us could get killed.
Casper: do you have a better idea?
Alexander: yes, wait here until the heat dies, then leave.
Casper: we're sitting ducks here!
Alexander: it's our only play, Casper!
Carmen: actually... what if it's not?
Alexander: what do you mean?
Carmen: Casper, do you have an electric car?
Casper: yeah, why?
Carmen: I have an idea...
They go downstairs into the garage where Casper shows them his new all black Tesla model S.
Carmen: perfect!
Casper: for what?
Carmen: if I can hack into this car, I can use it to distract all cops in the area and get them away from us.
Casper: you can do that?
Carmen: I'm pretty sure I can.
Casper: so can you only do that with electric cars?
Carmen: technically it's possible with most vehicles, assuming they have the right technology on board, but it's easier with electric cars.
Alexander: honestly, that sounds like a solid plan!
Casper: but won't the cops wreck my car?
Carmen: only if I can't lose them.
Casper: can you?
Carmen: well... it's kind of a 50/50 shot, so let's just hope for the best...
Casper: I'm gonna lose so much money from this...
