>>5699261First of all, you begin, the plan hasn’t totally changed: Pepper still has her <span class="mu-s">DISGUISE</span> if you want to get in that way. As if on cue, your partner dons her <span class="mu-s">PIZZA MIND CAP</span> and gives you an enthusiastic thumbs up. Super.
But there’s a few other things you notice as well-namely the beginning of what looks to be a <span class="mu-s">TRAIL</span> to the <span class="mu-s">EAST</span> of where the <span class="mu-s">GOLF CARTS</span> are carrying people up to the <span class="mu-s">MANSION.</span> If you hugged the crates and timed it right you could probably <span class="mu-s">SNEAK IN</span> undetected by the goons…
“Anything I can do to help, bros?” Asks Raj in an eager tone! Yea, you nod, there is, actually… with that <span class="mu-s">SKATEBOARD</span> of his he could probably <span class="mu-s">CAUSE A DISTRACTION</span>--that might make it easy to run for the trees…
“Not to interrupt your plans, champ, but take a look at <span class="mu-i">that</span>!”
Before you can ask, Pepper’s already got her <span class="mu-s">CAMERA</span> pointed down the beach! Following the lens, you notice a series of <span class="mu-s">FLASHES</span> in a copse of trees… upon observing it for a moment you notice it’s not random, nor is it a set pattern… is someone trying to <span class="mu-s">SIGNAL YOU?</span>
“If they know we’re here then that already complicates things…” Mutters Pepper as she moves to get something out of her skirt pocket. It’s cool, you say in a calm tone, it might not even be for us!
“Hey, I got a plan too!” Announces Raj with a twinkle in his… wait, does he even <span class="mu-i">have</span> eyes? Also since when did <span class="mu-i">he</span> get added to this mission?
“Hey, take me or leave me, bros-I’m just here for a good time!” Returning his <span class="mu-s">GUN FINGAHS</span> with two of your own, you motion for him to continue-what was his plan again?
“Oh yea, huh!” He laughs before beckoning the two of you over to the side of the dock, “If we wanna be all sneaky-like, why not just <span class="mu-s">SWIM,</span> dudes?”
“Let’s not and say we didn’t!” Exclaims Pepper with a remarkable lack of smugness! Geez, you scoff, he was just offering an idea… a really bad one given you’ve got <span class="mu-s">PIZZAS</span> to carry, but still-
“Yep, that’s the reason right there! The pizzas!” Pepper continues as she gives you both a vigorous nod! “No need to go swimming, nope!”
You’re inclined to dig a little deeper here, but seeing the way the girl looks at the ocean around you gives you pause. Might have to revisit that later…
“Alright, slick,” the reporter sighs, “What’s the play here?”
What indeed?
