THE STORY.
For a brief moment, they actually caught Larry.
After spending Part 2 tearing across the country in a dented HVAC van, Larry’s luck finally runs out during a high-speed police chase.
Boxed in near a Taco Bell, he attempts the kind of escape that could only make sense to Larry: climbing through the rooftop ventilation system. The ductwork has other ideas, and Larry comes crashing through the ceiling—one flip-flop missing and his freedom apparently gone with it.
Larry goes to prison.
That should have been the end of the story.
Then the prison AC breaks.
On the hottest day of the year, the warden discovers what appears to be an HVAC license in Larry’s file and makes exactly the same mistake everyone else makes:
He lets Larry work on the air conditioning.
Larry makes the system worse, disappears into the ductwork, steals a guard’s boots and a cold Gatorade, leaves behind a Post-it marked “Balance Due — Not Paid,” steals the prison laundry van and escapes under another new name.
The law caught Larry.
They just couldn’t keep him.
Meanwhile, the original narrator’s AC is still broken.
And Larry still owes him fifty bucks.
