You call Mama Bodil first, the conversation is brief and coded, not by your choice but Bodil’s. You didn’t outright say that you have the documents, but she got it, she masked her happiness, said some short words, and hung up. The only instruction the mafia leader gave you was to keep the line open until she calls you back. Every second counts, so you understand.
Minutes pass, you catch your breath, you feel like you’re halfway there. In the meantime, you write yourself a memo to remember to call up that Hotel and tell the receptionist that she’s a fool! You put it in your trusty wallet in the safe spot you never check unless you remember that you put something in there once! Then the phone rings.
“Congratulations, kids! Mama is so proud!” Mama Bodil is exuberant about your accomplishments! “Ayde didn’t catch on to anything. We're clear.”
“Thank you, Mama Bodil.” You smile from this side even if she can’t see it.
“He isn’t as sharp as he used to be. This is what being surrounded by Yes Men does to a mother flipper.” Bodil says half-jokingly. “You all okay?”
“We’re dead tired, but we’re all good. We’ll be returning soon.” You let her know.
“Good. Tell Eddie to hurry up, I need you all here. We have to figure out what to do with those papers.” Mama Bodil sighs.
“What do you mean?” You have a plan already! Or some sort of plan. A loose course of action? Point is, you were going to give the information to Wessam! Why the change?
“Sorry, kid, I had to give Ayde something to keep him around AND look less suspicious.” Mama Bodil laments. “I mentioned the journalist guy you kids talked about. Ayde put it all together in an instant and decided to pay him a visit. You called just in time or else I would’ve tried to stop him, and that… wouldn’t have ended pretty.” You hear Mama Bodil’s cracking her knuckles.
“Do you think he’s in danger?” You ask.
“Oh yeah, undoubtedly.” Mama Bodil doesn’t hesitate. “Yuck, I spent an hour around that fool and now I sound like him…”
“Give me a moment, Mama Bodil. I’ll give him a call. See ya.” You hang up and quickly try to reach Wessam to no avail. He’s not picking up the phone.
This is less than ideal…
<span class="mu-s">What’s the plan?</span>
>Change course! To the Newspaper Office! You’ll have to intercept Ayde!
>Find a way to contact Kangaroo Man and hand him the papers instead. You’re not a hero, you’re trying to help Vera.
>Send the papers to another news station. They can’t all be corrupt, right? You live in a democracy… of sorts!
>Write In.
