Both brothers are silenced and shock by what the Counselor told them. They are confused by what he told them, about their parents being from the wrong side.

Boy #2: What are you saying?! Are our parents from the enemy? Are they accomplices to the enemy?

Boy #1: Please tell us? Are we also enemies?!

Counselor: No, but ever since you two became the talk of Anchorage, we have the uncontrollable urge to ask your parents about it.

Counselor: However, we got no answer from them because they're silent and had to shut us out from any life information.

Boy #2: So... what did you do?

Judge: Well, for safety measures... we filed an investigation to know about why your family seems to be quiet.

Counselor: We only know about you two being highschool dropouts, ending your studying at 2nd year highschool. However we got several interviews that you two are doing your jobs very well.

Boy #1: We studied everyday during free time. Such as the library and watching other people doing the same process.

Boy #2: That's how we got to learn as highschool dropouts.

Counselor: I see. But to much of our investigators, we collect any records of your parents' names from before and after they arrived here.

Counselor: To our shock and horror, your parents have been recorded to be escapees or what we learned, they're staged escapees from the country of Japan and the Soviet Union.

Boy #1: Wait?! So our parents are from Japan?!

Boy #2: And the Soviet Union?!

Counselor: Well, your mother was identified as a Russian, which might be from the Soviet Union, as for your father... he was Japanese.

Boy #2: Oh... I see.

Both brothers are confused and in shock by the truth behind their parents.

Boy #1: But... what does it mean for being staging escapees?

Counselor: Based on what the investigators conclude, your parents are sent to the United States to go under an espionage. Probably to collect valuable information about the United States to the Japanese Empire.

Counselor: As for the Soviet Union, they don't have anything related to your mother.

Boy #1: W..wait? So... our parents kept it for 19 years?

Counselor: 19 years... I see, it seems ever since you're born, they didn't told you about their secret about being espionages.

Boy #2: But how?

Counselor: We got tickets from Great Britain about their arrival in New York, probably talking a transatlantic trip. They had their names registered, however we didn't know if they took the trip to Britain by train or by boat to different stops.

Judge: Just a rundown of what we have discovered, your parents are married at that time. During the 1920s, they traveled to Britain to take a transatlantic trip to the United States.

Judge: However, we didn't know at that time, they're taking important information about the United States. Because many people begin to become suspicious of them, your parents take a trip to California, then by boat they settled a normal life here. In Anchorage.

Judge: And that is where you two are born. 

The brothers then went to a long thought process, listening to the story of their parents, they're in shock and betrayed by their parents. After 19 years, they have been silent throughout their lives, only they have to just call them and just say few little words. Nothing else.
