  • He knew what was going on within having climbed in through the window. It was too late. He folded a paper in Assassins Code, threw it where it needed to be left through the window

  • "Shall I take him out using the Invisible Man, or the old Walking the Dog trick?" he thought to himself. But while he was lost in thought, he accidentally gave himself a yo-yo cut.
