Errand Boy
- Moose wakes up the next morning with his clothes on (just in case he has to face a prisoner in the night).
- He runs out of his room to see his dad, who hasn't been home in a while; he is arranging buttons with Natalie.
- Moose asks his dad if he has to work, and his dad says he has some electrical work to take care of.
- Moose's mom and sister chime into the conversation and he feels like his personal space is invaded.
- He wants to see the island, but his dad denies the request; Moose complains that his dad's been gone for almost three months. Talk about a long shift, right?
- His dad leaves again, and his mom asks Moose to watch Natalie while she runs some errands—Natalie has a tendency to throw some really bad fits.
- Someone knocks at the door and before Moose can keep Natalie away, she runs to it.
- A rough-and-tumble looking girl walks into their house without invitation and asks Moose's age.
- She asks Natalie's age, too, and says she already "knows" about her. Moose tells her that his sister is ten—which is something the family has been telling people for years.
- The girl offers to show them around town, and demands that they follow her.
