** The mission to Abu Dhabi. It was going to be quite simple. Ramsey is going to talk with an associate of hers to get the [[spoiler: God's Eye]] that everyone is looking for, but then he tells her that he had sold it to a billionaire who is hosting a party inside the one of the city's tallest skyscrapers. The crews then dressed sharply to infiltrate the party. Brian and Dom then finds that said equipment is hidden within [[spoiler: a [[Main/CoolCar Lykan Hypersport]], a very rare sports car with only 7 produced in the world. The plan goes awry when Letty's cover is blown and Deckard arrives. With nowhere to escape, Dom races the car '''outside the windows, jumping between two freakin' buildings, using Deckard's explosives to propel them forward'''. And seeing Brian still struggled to get the God's Eye out of the car, ''he does it again'', launching the car to the third building as it runs out of control, then and only ''then'' do both Brian and Dom jump out of the car just before it plummets down into the streets below, finally getting the bloody thing they came for.]]
