Basically the team has found another way that's not covered in the module. I don't want to stop it since it is a pretty easy way of handling the requirements with a minimum of fuss.

[ Spoiler ]

They wanted to know how she was getting to and from school. Since she had a bodyguard, I had him drive her to and from school in a security type limo (the Mitsubishi). They figure it's a good way to snatch her with a minimum of fuss.

Their intentions are to stash a narco grenade under Frost's seat and set it off remotely, then hack the limo to get the doors opened and run off with the girl. No screaming, no Frost or The Trinity chasing them down the streets.

It sounds like a great idea but I can't find anything that seems to fit what they want to do. I figured on a "Grid-Guide" type system that they could hack into to stop and pop the car open once they triggered the grenade but there isn't anything in the books on what to test against (Runner Havens, New Seattle, or Seattle Sourcebook) and the Denver boxed set doesn't say whether it's gridded or not (I figure 50/50 but give it to them since it's a good idea; maybe just the sector they're in).

The vehicle itself seems pretty simple and if it has a grid-guide interface, they should be able to hack in and have it 'pull over' for Lone Star.

And if the grenade doesn't go off for some reason, Frost'll just flip off GG control, notify The Trinity and zoom off. (Heck, if Frost has enough time he might flip it off before the grenade has time to take effect which might bollix their plans anyway.)
