Speed confronts the kids if they were calling him IShowMeat which they immediately deny. But he proceeds to call the police department without hesitation. Speed explains the situation to the police and reads their IP address to them. He notifies the police to contact the Estonian police department immediately.
The police officer informs Speed that he does have a friend from the Estonian police department and they will make sure to lock up the kids. Moments later, the kids understand the situation and let Speed know they are huge fans of him. But Speed says “Kids, I am sorry but you are going to jail”. He also informs that he was not joking and they will be put in jail. He also adds “You guys have not learned your lessons so you will be going to jail in a second”.
