3RD PERSON POV:

Jamie joined her brother and Robin in translating. A few hours later they finally got their first line. 

Robin opened the window to the front where she told Steve, "We've got our first sentences."

"Oh, seriously?"

In a Russian accent she says, "The week is long."

"Well, that's thrilling."

Jamie shouted at him, "IT'S PROGRESS."

Robin agreed and closed the window. 

They all spent the rest of the day decoding when they finally got it. 

Together they read, "The week is long, the sliver cat feeds when blue meets yellow in the west."

Steve closed the front gate and said, "I mean, it just...it just can't be right."

"It's right," Robin said.

"Honestly, I think it's great news!" Dustin said.

"How is this great news?" Steve questioned, "I mean, so much for being American heroes. It's nonsense."

"It's not nonsense. It's clearly a code," Dustin responded.

"What do you mean, a code?" He asked.

He rolled his eyes, "Like a super secret spy code."

"That's a total stretch," He argued.

"I don't know, is it?" Jamie asked.

Steve was surprised, "You're buying into this?"

"Just for kicks, let's say that it is a secret Russian transmission. What'd you think they were gonna say, 'Fire the warhead at noon?'"

"Exactly, and my translation is correct. I know that for sure, so..." Robin added.

"Why did they say, 'the silver cat feeds?' No one talks like that unless it's a code. Codes are used to cover true intentions so that no one understands," Jamie continued. 

"Exactly," Dustin agreed.

"And why would anyone want to cover their intentions unless the code was something very important," Jamie finished.

"So I guess that confirms your suspicion," Robin said to Dustin.

"Evil Russians!" He said.

"I can't believe I am about to agree with this strange child, but, yeah, totally evil Russians," Robin said.

"How do we crack it?" Dustin asked.

Jamie had noticed Steve stopped and she stopped with him.

"What's wrong?" She asked.

"Uh, uh, uh..." He responded.

He was just staring at this horse thing for kids. He then started to dig into his pockets. 

"Hey, Steve! What are you doing?" Robin called out.

He was dropping coins on the floor and Jamie was annoyed and started to pick them up.

"Uh, it's a quarter. I need- Do you have a quarter??" He asked her.

Robin and Dustin walked over to him.

"Sure you're tall enough for that ride?" Robin teased.

"QUARTER!" He shouted.

Jamie sighed and handed him one. He immediately put the coin into the slot and music started playing.
