I'm not sure how just yet, but I want to bring the boxes to the forefront of this conflict. They're a presence in the story, but right now they aren't involved in this chase at all.

Maybe it's a weapon Dime's got?

Splitting cardboard could bring about some sort of event-- maybe large enough to be his backup plan. This was 'divine justice' back in the day, but now it's just misuse of contraband, something that Dime could be jailed for life for, or even executed.

In his mind... maybe it'd be worth it.

so if the holiest box is bombed, that's some divine wrath shit, new canyons and volcanos opening up, spiders everywhere, god is dead. what a backdrop for a climax
