43.
Gianna sits down next to Tej as she types in 'Dominic Toretto' on God's Eye. The screen quickly begins searching for him showing his location in London. "Got him. He's in London." Tej announces wrapping an arm around his girlfriend's shoulders. The computer starts rapidly beeping. "Wait. We got a second match in Hong Kong." Ramsey says "Beijing and Seoul." Rome adds "And Tokyo."
"And just about every other major city on the planet." Gianna sighs. "And so... God's Eye was where we started. But Cipher's already created an evasion that masks their location by pinging random spots all over the globe, but it was a good thought, Roman." Mr. Nobody compliments. "So, she's made my program obsolete."
"And that, Ramsey, is why you're here." Mr.Nobody tells her as he walks towards her "See, simple solutions aren't gonna cut it here, slick." Little Nobody says to Rome as he walks by. "Why you look at me when you say that?" Rome asks stepping down from the stairs. "Wait a second. Simple solutions might just cut it. You see, in order for God's Eye to give off all these false pings, means they have to be using a FLEA relay." Tej explains making Mr. Nobody tell Little Nobody to watch the three hackers.
"Which means it has a decaying sync randomizer." Ramsey adds on. "Which we can reverse.." Tej says. "And track it back to the originating source and find Dom's true location." Gianna finishes making Rome snap his fingers. "I'm telling you, they got skills." Mr. Nobody laughs. "That was my idea. That's what I was saying. Remember in there?" Rome says pointing to the room they were in.
"All right. Let's try this." Mr. Nobody says before Tej and Gianna get to work to reverse the randomizer. The cities that were once on the screen begin disappearing "It's working." Gianna says. "Time you want to check your manual and start organizing a force response." Hobbs tells Little Nobody. "All right, they're not in China." Tej announces "Or Russia." More locations continue to disappear "Europe's clear." Ramsey says. Gianna zooms into one location "This one's not going away." Mr. Nobody smiles "This is interesting."
"Why?" Little Nobody asks. "Because that's here." Mr. Nobody says before windows start exploding causing the team to fall. Deckard watches as grenades are thrown into the room, he catches sight of Ramsey jumping into her and knocking her down before the grenade goes off.
The team is left with their ears ringing as Dom and a woman walk into the room. "Did you all enjoy that? Next-generation concussion grenade. It scrambles your senses. Don't worry, it will wear off in an hour. Probably." Cipher's voice echoes as they all hold their heads groaning. "Hello, Deckard. Nice to see you again. Look at this. Body's not even cold, Dom. Your family's already replacing you. You chose the losing team. I guess your brother is smarter than you."
Dom begins shooting all the windows in the room causing them to shatter. Letty looks up to see Dom looking down at her, he looks at the rest of the team. "Smart move embedding God's Eye into the mainframe. Irritating to me have to come all the way down here to get it, but..." Cipher takes the device out of the computer before walking away.
"Dom!" Letty yells out making him stop in his tracks and turns around. "You gonna turn your back on family? Just like that?" Letty asks slowly getting up. Cipher stands in front of Dom staring at Letty before pulling him into a kiss. Cipher glances over at Letty and smirks before whispering "Let's go" into Dom's ear. Dom looks back at Letty who frowns at him before he walks away.
The team finally recovers from the grenade's as they all gather around the table except for Letty who sits on the stairs. "You okay?" Hobbs asks grabbing her arm "That wasn't him." Letty says. "I don't know what she's got on him, but that wasn't Dom."
"Brian would know what to do." Rome chimes in. "No! We can't bring Brian and Mia into this. We agreed on that." Letty tells him. "I know." Little Nobody types on his computer "Damn it. She wiped it all. Took God's Eye. That was the one thing we could use to find them. We lost everything." Deckard focuses on his computer which draws Hobbs' attention "What you got, princess?"
"Finding Toretto. But I got a couple of minutes to spare, if you want me to send you to the hospital, again." Deckard replies making Hobbs laugh "Yo, Rules." Hobbs says to Little Nobody. "First off, that's not my name." He tells Hobbs. "Little Nobody." Rome says. "Don't call me that." He points at Rome. "Oh, that's definitely sticking." Tej tells him. "Great. Do me a favor and tell Your Majesty over there that we're gonna find Toretto. We find Toretto together as a team. And when this is all over with, I'm happy to slap that whisker biscuit right off his face."
"Wait a minute, guys. I think Deckard's actually onto something. How do you think Dom and Cipher got into the country without us knowing? Ghost flights." Ramsey tells the team. "I thought untraceable aircraft was all internet conspiracy stuff." Tej says confused. "It's not. Satellites and radar grids all across the globe. shift like an ocean. And they've got channels that open and close. And theoretically, if you know the right people who know the right patterns..."
"You can fly right through the blind spots completely undetected." Ramsey finishes. "So, you know where Dom is headed?" Letty asks "Yeah. New York." Deckard answers making Mr. Nobody laugh getting up. "You see there Luke? You guys are gonna get along just great. Which proves rule number two, you never lose everything. Fire up the chopper. Well, guys, have a ball in the Big Apple."
📍New York City
"And why are we traveling like this again?" Rome yells "Because Dom took God's Eye. So we need to stay off the grid." Tej responds calmly. "But like this?" The door to the back of the truck opens as the team takes in a breath immediately covering their noses. "Look here, man. Before I throw up in my mouth, let me ask you, what are we doing here?"
"That's a good question, Roman. Let me show you." Little Nobody says as they walk out of the truck in front of a pair of doors that open to reveal a garage full of cars. Gianna's eyes widen in awe "Welcome to our new base of operations." Little Nobody tells the team. "No, seriously, what is this place?" Letty asks looking around.
"This... is heaven." Gianna and Tej say in sync. "It's the agency garage. They call it the Toy Shop." Hobbs says "This is what I'm talking about." Gianna says excitedly. "This is where we house every vehicle seized from drug dealers on the East Coast. Now, Mr. Nobody said, 'If we're gonna have a chance at catching Dom we're gonna have to be damn fast.' Figured this would help."
"We got a tank. 750-horsepower, 6.6-liter V-8 Duramax engine with a M153 CROWS remotely operated weapons station on top." Tej explains as he walks around the tank. "You didn't get this from drug dealers." Ramsey says walking closer to Little Nobody. "No. No, that, uh that the United States Army lent me."
"See, the Army's developing machines like this that soldiers can drive from a mile away so they can stay safe and alive. But luckily, there's a backup driver's seat for those of us that like to get more hands-on." Tej looks at Rome "I'm sitting there wondering this whole time will this thing feel like valet at Cheesecake Factory."
"No one is getting hands-on. She doesn't go on city streets." Little Nobody tells the two. "Wow." Rome says as a car is lifted "I'm in love." He starts walking towards the lift. "Again. No, no. That's a million-dollar show car. The point is to not draw attention." "It's reverse psychology. Dom will never see it coming." Rome tells Little Nobody who stands in his way. "It's neon orange. The International Space Station would see it coming. Go choose anything less conspicuous."
"No, no, no. Calipers are my... This is ridiculous" "Not happening." Little Nobody points in Rome's face. "Hey, my man, you can put that down right there. This is a gift, a real gift. I know what you're doing. I like your beard. You're Blanta. Black Santa?" The man driving the lift looks at Rome with a straight face "No. I'm serious. Put it down right there."
