I request Fritz Brenner be brought to prepare an elaborate meal of his own choice, so long as it requires at least 24 hours of prep time and the services of Archie Goodwin to procure certain ingredients. Nero Wolfe, furious at losing them both for 24 hours, resolves to get me exonerated within 8 hours just to get them back.

Or, an In-N-Out Double Double with cheese, an order of fries, and two chocolate milkshakes.

Gummiberry juice, should be quite useful.  
Or perhaps some felix felicitis.

Actually both would be optimal.
