my solution...

1. give the key to my perfect/dream mate and ask her to take the old lady;
2. stay with my old friend: both of us dead or alive and see if he could save me the second time, or, if I could save him this time as a pay back; since he is my old friend and we have long time no see, so, it's a good time for the gethering in this evening;

3. the point is THIS: if my perfect/dream mate would not return my car to me, then...; or, if I dead in this evening, then...ONLY if she returns the car to me, then, I would go ahead for the chance...

what do you think?
