Default Overheats, Battery dies, no throttle power

Ok, All of a sudden check gauges light comes on, and the engine symbol comes on also. It starts over heating and i have no throttle power, I pull over shut car off, open the hood to let it cool off, 30 minutes later start it back up, battery is dead. So after 10 minutes my friend,, (the one with the SHO i told u guys about) gets it started on some BS chance, and we start towards my house. I had full throttle going and i was only going 20 mph, and would not shift out of 1st.

Basically i cant get anywhere now, My friend with the SHO'* car is in the shop. He hit a curb in the rain with wet leaves LOL, Bent the frame up good lololol I was right behind him at the time lol well anyway I need help, PLEASE HELP ME!!!
