Why isn't candy falling from the sky though? Is her Jetsons style flying car off camera?

[Fleshdancer]

29. it's a sad story really....

The Iranian insurgents stole the candy. Obviously we can not allow this to happen. As for the flying car, it's currently in the garage for the Iraqi version of Pimp My Ride.
