"Uh oh!" Pope calls out to the stranded girls. "You forget your keys or something?"
"I half expected one of you to be dead." I joke.
"You need a tow?" John B teases. "You gotta admit, it was kinda funny."
"John B." Kie stops his teasing.
"Uh, what's that?"
"Mastermind, huh?" Kie questions.
"I'm always plannin'." John B states truthfully.
"Some patriarchal bullshit." Kie snaps.
"Yeah, that sucked." Sarah agrees.
"You still love us though, right?" JJ asks tossing Kie the tope to tie the boats together.
"Yeah, whatever." Sarah says.
"Hey, you still hate me?" JB asks Sarah.
"A little. We're both gonna get you back when you least expect it."
"Watch your back, Boys."
The boys all glance at each other. "Well, I for one accept that challenge." Pope says.
"I have no part in this." I put my hands up in surrender.
"So, did you guys, you know.."
"Reconcile our differences?" Kie asks, finishing my brother's questions. "Not even close."
"But, we're willing to work together."
"You know what?" John B says. "That's victory."
"Yep." JJ agrees. "Know why? Hydroponic."
"Don't say that." Pope tells him.
"All right, shut up." John B orders. "You guys ready to jack someone up?"
A smile breaks out on both girls faces. They both climb into the HMS Pogue. "Yeah, whatever." Kie says.
We head back to the Chateau to get the van to drive to the Crain House.
"Alright, you guys got rope?" John B checks from the front seat. I ride in the passenger seat next to him.
"Yep."
"Grappling hook?"
"No grappling hook." Pope answers. "We're not Batman."
"Pulley."
"Check." Kie responds.
"Dark clothes?"
"Yes, JB." I confirm.
"Flashlights?"
"Check."
"All right, good. We're ready."
"Let's go." Kie says as we pull in front of the Crain house.
"Let's go get rich, guys." JJ says.
