... All in favor of getting away from the terrifying child, say "Aye"!

Because, you know? Siding with the slightly less homicidal, static-warped voice doesn't sound like half a bad plan, at this point.

[Not!son has been pretty quiet since Christmas, but he also heard that phone call a little while ago..]

Do you really think he wants to help us?

[He's not being cynical, he's honestly curious about Sideswipe's opinion..]

[Not!Dad is just glad to see you're all right, kiddo. Reasonably speaking.]

I don't know about him. But the other woman... "Jane". She sounded genuine.

[Yeeaah, he'll be dealing with mental trauma for a while yet, but will eventually get over it.]

You mean Samantha Achewood....

But people have tried to break through her droning before. I think they watch her more closely than the others.

[weaponsparked]

... That's who she was?

[He couldn't remember much, aside from that name.]

She... seemed aware though. At least, a little bit. Didn't she?

[springtime4me]

Yes. She, Richard Gray, and Evan Olney were all involved in the incident in Westport.

Actually, I've been collecting all the information I can get about that incident lately. If you wanted to see any of it....

[Hilariously, by now Hitler actually has a handwritten copy of nearly all the Westport letters and notes.]

[He just sort of sits there in silence for a moment.]

You...

You brilliant little human.

[springtime4me]

Ummm.... Thank you?

[He thinks that was probably a compliment....]

Actually, it's really thanks to the people in town who were so generous with the information they had. I really believe that the key to understanding Mayfield is to understand Westport first.

[weaponsparked]

Good work.

[It was a compliment, yes. Unfortunately, Sideswipe tends to give slightly backhanded compliments out of reflex... but it was genuine!]

Have you been able to figure anything out yet? Besides names of those involved?

[springtime4me]

I think it raised more questions then it answered....

Maybe someone smarter than me would be able to figure something out, but..... I think the key lies in finding out exactly what happened between Samantha Achewood, Richard Gray, and Evan Olney....
