Short Answer

2. Stopthief and Uri jump on a streetcar and the other passengers tell them to get off. As a nearby explosion stops the streetcar and everyone gets off, Uri takes the opportunity to drive the streetcar out of the city and off the tracks. (Chapter 4)

3. Stopthief and Uri see Jackboot soldiers forcing an old man to clean the sidewalk with his beard, while another man has his hair cut off by the soldiers.
