  }
  if (options.cookies) {
    async.reduce(options.cookies, options.jar, function(result, cookie, cb) {
      var cookieStr;
      cookieStr = cookie.name + "=" + cookie.value;
      return options.jar.setCookie(cookieStr, options.url, function(err, c) {
        if (err) {
          return cb(err);
        } else {
