Pitch-black night. you’s racing suit is snagged on telegraph wires, leaving them dangling. Static hisses in their headset. Sheriff’s flashlight reveals them. Mater rumbles in, grinning. His hook snags you’s belt. With a clank, he hoists you like luggage, arms splayed. He drops you unceremoniously onto the dirt. “Caught ya a big one!” he laughs. you scrambles up, brushing mud off, sniffles. Sheriff: “Save it. You’re coming with us.”
