[ The funny thing about that is that Alan would classify this whole thing as a bad B horror movie. He might even go as far as to label his books as something along those lines. They sell, sure, but pinnacles of brilliant writing they aren't. But then again, he's always been his own worst critic. ]

I don't know. It seems almost too weird or stupid to be a good plan, but maybe that's the plan: maybe it's so weird that no one would ever think to go sniffing around there.

Outside of town it is. And wouldn't the FBI just have more questions? You might be able to get away, but I don't like the idea of being hauled off by them, even if they gave us a ride.

So, what are we going to do? Break a window and steal- I mean borrow a car?
