The police van doors slam shut, sealing Jet in the darkness. He is dragged from the vehicle, cuffs and shackles clinking, into the sterile garage of the mental facility.

Jet offers no resistance, his spirit broken by despair. Finally, they guide his limp form into a wheelchair, ready for transport.
