Meanwhile, somewhere else in Florida...

More desperate than ever to find the Boltarius', Sally and Lightning were looking for any excuse of a plan to retrieve the kidnapped newlyweds, until...

"Hey Sal, I just got some anonymous message - I assume it's Jarred. Demetria and Dash are both in Nettes' possession!" Lightning notified her.

"Nettes?!"  Sally gasped.

"Yeah! Dash was right, Jarred's suspicions were right; this is all Nettes fault. The parent thing, the jail thing, the kidnapping thing... everything!" Lightning said.

"Well, we can't just stay here and stir! We have to go save them." Sally said.

"We'll need all the help we can get." Lightning said.

"Let's go save them!" Sally yelled.

"Just one question; where the heck is everybody? I mean, Mater has been missing as well apparently, and he's been looking for his spy friend who's been missing for ages. That's a recipe for disaster!" Lightning advised.

"Well - and I know it's a long shot - but we can try calling him," Sally suggested.

"I guess that's all we can do at the moment." Lightning said.

Lightning went to call Mater as quickly as he could. However...

"Okie dokie, I think this here thang is recordin'. Hello, earthling, this is Tow Mater; the world's best backward driver! I can't quite answer ya call, so send one of dem dere voice messages. Okie, now how do I turn this thang off? How do I turn thi-" Mater got cut off.

"I take it he's still not changed his voicemail?" Sally thought.

"I guess not." Lightning said.

"Don't worry, I can git some backup for us!" a familiar voice yelled out.

"Huh?" Lightning and Sally turned around in confusion, only to be met by a familiar face.

"Mater? Where the heck did you come from?" Sally asked.

"I think I told Lightnin' before, but I believe it was from my Ma-" Mater said.

"That's not what she meant." Lightning interjected.

"Oh. I found Finn McMissile... he can help us," Mater exclaimed.

"Meanwhile, how the heck did you find us?" Lightning exclaimed.

"This ol' app on ma phone here called 'Find My Friend' we downloaded a while ago," Mater said.

"I don't remember installing that." Lightning thought to himself.

"These cars are armed and dangerous. We'll need some backup." Mater advised.

"Since when were they armed and dangerous?" Lightning thought.

"Demetria and Dash been captured and you don't think they's armed?" Mater asked.

"Yeah... he has a point, Stickers." Sally agreed.

"Alright, what's your call then?" Lightning asked.

"My what?" Mater asked.

"Your call; what's your plan?" Lightning clarified.

"Oh! Okay... we call McMissile, we get backup; we go find Demetria and Dash." Mater devised.

"Alright, I guess we should go and find Finn first?" Sally asked.
