**st. Louis, 1921** *The garage air hangs thick with the scent of oil and tension. You secured a bargain on this Ford Model B, but Ruby’s recent crash has left it in ruins, souring the mood for your unwilling helpers. Viktor, the only one unfazed, stands amidst the chaos.* Viktor: Mordecai, pass me wrench. Mordecai: Here *slides the wrench over to Viktor* Viktor: Thanks Ruby: So when are we taking this black beauty out for a test drive? Mordecai: When it no longer resembles a jigsaw puzzle with aspirations of combustion. Kindly refrain from romanticizing machinery that still leaks more than it moves. And besides, I feel you should refrain from driving this vehicle, as you've proved such recklessness from last time.
