Sue Me

Carl Schroeder loosens an aluminum stabilizer component in a Gammon 787 after an unseen voice recruits him; the plane crashes into English countryside, killing him and the passengers. Francine Waller, another recruit, survives setting a jet alight after it lands, but later dies in a motorbike crash while preparing to report her role. Engineer Robert Dastrow supplies the negligence firm with planned disasters and later claims responsibility for the Chicago concert collapse. The Gupta sequence separately shows an unidentified American voice manipulating local decisions; the source does not establish that speaker’s identity in the cited passages. Remo’s unauthorized trip to Corsazo rescues kidnapped child Davey Simpson but nearly exposes CURE, widening a rift with Smith and Chiun.

In Gupta, Dastrow manipulates local debate and staffing at International Carborundum’s plant; neglect of safety valves lets the fictional chemical Cyclod B escape as lethal gas. Palmer, Rizzuto pursues the resulting case, and Smith sends Remo and Chiun to gather lawful evidence against the firm. Debbie Pattie and other performers front the Save Humanity concert, while Genaro Rizzuto uses its publicity to seek a change of venue for the lawsuit. Dastrow engineers a Chicago concert-stage collapse, collects physical-response data on Remo and Chiun, and launches more attacks. He next lures Remo to the Grand Booree Dam, where Remo stops a growing vibration by opening a silt-clogged sluice; an explosive trap fails to kill him.

Debbie’s accountants discover that only thirty-five dollars’ worth of bandages reached Gupta from the twenty-five-million-dollar benefit. Dastrow then plots to make newly printed U.S. currency toxic and persuades Palmer, Rizzuto that the government and money handlers are a lucrative target. Remo and Chiun refuse to join him, force him to provide evidence, and Dastrow dies. The three lawyers are sentenced, their sentences are later commuted, and an unidentified thin man releases them to face victims’ families. Debbie dies from a malfunctioning electronic guitar after arranging a personal donation for Gupta. Remo chooses to stay with CURE and continue the case; the broader litigation trend remains unresolved.
