Fortunately there were other states. Ginger was rolling in her shiny red muscle car down the super slab toward the state line.

Unfortunately there was a State Highway Patrol roadblock waiting for her as she had been speeding at velocities exceeding 113 MPH and had out run and unlawfully evaded five different sheriff's deputies making her a wanted fugitive from justice. Justice being Sheriff Buford T. Justice of the Collier County Sheriff's department and noted relentless speed killer.

Fortunately, she was actually a detective, and they recognized her.

Unfortunately they recognized her too late as they had already begun firing on her car by the time she got close enough for her facial features to be viewed through the tinted wind shield of her car.

Fortunately, the retractable wings articulated automatically while NOS jets helped Ginger soar into the air, successfully evading the long rifles of the law.

Unfortunately,-- Wait. Why was she driving if she had a jet?

Fortunately she had no problem remembering that her cool, Government Issued, sedan transformed into a flying car and safely landed beyond the reach of John Law.

Unfortunately, she was now out of gas and 100 miles from the nearest nail salon-- and dang, she had broken a nail.

Fortunately she remembered the phone number of a emergency mobile nail salon service that had a branch nearby.

Fortunately her smart phone had a voice command feature that allowed her to dial the number anyway.

Unfortunately, the mobile nail salon only took Visa, and Ginger had her Diner's Club instead.

Fortunately, Ginger spoke Korean, and the nail salon owner was so charmed that she sent the mobile van anyway. They had her lacquered up in no time, and gave her a ride to a filling station, where they also carried Ginger's favorite brand of snack food.

Unfortunately the snack Ginger favored (deep fried peanut butter and banana burritos with jalapeno sauce) caused her considerable digestive distress shortly after the tasty treat was consumed.

Fortunately, it only took an hour of screaming in the filling station bathroom to clear up the problem.

Fortunately, both the problem, and the floor, were eventually cleaned up.

Unfortunately there were lingering aftereffects for days.

Fortunately, she was used to them and pushed her way through.

Unfortunately being sidelined with atomic diarrhea distracted Ginger from her original purpose.
