That's it? That's your plan?

It turns out that the criminal mastermind Angelorious did indeed end up with the perfume formula instead of the fuel formula (and all it took to find that out was a rather awkward meeting with the highest bidder of "The First Annual Help Angelorious Retire In Style Auction").  Now she's back to get the formula and have her revenge, and she's starting with...a screwdriver to the gas tank of Dick Tracy's car?  (I guess I should be grateful that she apparently found the gun again by the time she went inside of Dr. Noll's house, unless she's just holding the screwdriver at a funny angle to make people think it's a gun.  Who knows, maybe it's sonic.)  Angelorious, I just want you to stop and think for a minute.  You know that Dick Tracy is married.  You've had dealings with his wife.  I find it hard to believe that the Tracys only have one car between them, especially since Dick is always running off to different places for days or weeks at a time, and during those times I doubt that Tess jumps on a bicycle to go to the market.  (Think of her condition, oh marketing superstar.)  That being said, whatever you're planning to do, you can't possibly believe that you'll get away without some sort of high speed chase, one that will hopefully begin with Dick crashing through a garage door, skidding out into the street, tires burning rubber, and end with your car flipping over after striking another car or some randomly placed garbage cans.  (I really need to lay off of the A-Team episodes.)   

It's now beginning to look like things might be wrapping themselves up since Angelorious is about to walk right into the trap set by Dick and Dr. Noll.  (Now, if it was me, I'd have called in some of my buddies from the police station, or even SWAT Man, to help me out, but I'm not a seasoned detective working with a slightly scatterbrained scientist, so I'll just leave it to the professionals.)  All that remains to be seen now is how the doctor and Tracy will nab Angelorious, whether Driller will ever be exposed for what he's been doing, and whether or not the CIA man is actually on his way or has once again been distracted by Internet gaming.
