He's not sounding terribly... well, is he?

He's not. And the last place, and this one . . .

[Taps the wall beside the button. Even to an untrained ear, it's nothing like concrete.]

It's not even real.

Look on the ground. You'll see fou- -oxes. If you lo- -hem, they're numbered 1-4.

Each group, take one. Then awa- -her instructions.

. . . only four?

...what on earth...?

There were eleven boxes. One for each team. It was a game Amethyst and I played in . . . the first time we met Trickster.

. . . there haven't been only four for a long time.

Now hardly seems the time to reminisce.

Mmm. I think . . . we should leave.

Stay behind me?

Gladly, my dear. I should think staying would be frightfully boring after awhile.

[Sizes up the wall again.]

Probably . . .

Mm!

[And punches right through it.]

Good heavens! Has anyone ever told you you're stronger than you look?

Ahh . . . it's more . . . the wall is really weak.

[Though there's definitely something up when her eyes flash gold and she rakes her hand through it, claw like.

In her fingers' wake, it falls into four neat, parallel styrofoam-edged chunks.]

[Has seen your eyes change color like that before. :|a]

...I imagine you'll be wanting a nice dinner after we've gotten home?

[. . . nods.]

When we get home.

The riddle HAS no answer, it's why it's wise.

Trickster?

...what riddle is that, again?

[Takes Summer's hand, tugging him to the hole in the wall.]

Let's go.

That sounds like a splendid idea.

[GOING.]

[Checking out over h...]

You guys got out then.

Without doom, no less.

Yeah that's the funny thing.

Unexpected, perhaps, but certainly not unwelcome.
