Synopsis

Bright lights descend from the night sky, tracing routes over four desert highways, eventually converging on an isolated crossroads. Lightning flashes and blue smoke are the result of their high-speed collision, revealing a sleek, all black Dodge M4S Turbo Interceptor, driven by a black-clad and helmeted figure.
