Jet could always call for a ride home, citing 'engine trouble'. A Blue Midget sounds like it could do the job...and pick the Cat up into the bargain.
It might be a good way to bring Agent Smith back into the story.... he's the one assigned on behalf of the DHS to take possession of the zoid as a threat to Notional security. And probably some county-mountie named "Deputy Stagg" along with him, because Ruth is able to cite some department regulations about working hours to try foil him. Hotel owner takes the Fifth when asked where Jet's gone....
Intending to claim that Jet was planning to fire first, he empties a magazine of 9mm hollowpoints into Jet's armour, scratching the paint a little. Jet disarms him before he can reload (non-violently) and destroys the Glock in a very intimidating way.
"....You're all under arrest!..."
Blue midget lands behind Jet, with the remark that "We caught that on our landing camera."
"Are we now?"
"You haven't heard the last of the United States Government!"
