Just a thought - now that Dalton's dead & Cathy can scrounge through his stuff for a little while, it would be so great if Cathy found Dalton's password to his flikr account & there was a pic of piece 5 in there - it would give the Sammeeeees a chance to bluff AJ at the meet later today.

It could buy a little time for actually getting the piece & then we could time the swap of the 5 + and Peeps to coincide with the ritual being reversed - while everyone is out in the open & that would free the world Smile

And give you the ability to get it translated and the reversal ritual figured out so the Keeper will know what to do.

Do be patient and wait until 9:05 exactly before you move on. I'd love to be exactly on time tonight, Sammeeeees.

Here is a transcript:

Quote:


Shadowy figure in a white robe and towel (I think) and a yellow straw hat. Face completely hidden. Booming stagey voice.

Good evening. I am Mister Alan Johnson. I have gathered you Sammeeeees together tonight for only one reason. We must come to a final decision about the Five. This is a denouement. As you know my main objective has always been the return of the man called Peeps. We can quibble about my motives but the return of Peeps is still required. The White Roses decided to complicate matters by dragging the so-called Spoocheeeee disc into the mix. And now, I find that one of the Five is far more precious than I had known. All this time, our dear Dwin has been in training to become the next ME. This does complicate matters but it does not make our negotiations impossible. Here is my proposal to you: Give me the disc, and I shall release your fellow Sammeeeees to you. This will include Ben, the ravishing Aunt Jayne, and... Happy, the dog. Return the man called Peeps to my side and I will give you the boy Dwin, or Kevin if you prefer. (coughs) To insure that you plan no trickery, I will require Peeps to step forward on the day that you finally retrieve disc piece 5. I am no fool Sammeeeees. I understand the power you shall yield. Once Peeps comes home to me, I will release the Five to you. You Sammeeeees must then send the disc to me within four days or Peeps will be gone forever. (the background music is getting really loud...I cannot understand but according to xnbomb, the next sentence may be: "Despair que vous comprenez.") Thank you for your time. Au revoir Sammeeeees.

More coughing and then the screen fades to black with the words:
Please mull my demands..... / and email me by tomorrow evening with your reply.

Aaaaannnnd scene.

I sent AJ an email of praise:

I wrote:

Mr. Johnson,

I was with the Sammeeeees as they listened to your
proposal this evening. Outstanding performance, Mr.
Johnson! I think that you struck just the right note
of forthrightness and control. The only bit was that
I couldn't catch what you said in French I think it
was right there at the end. In any event, it will be
very interesting to see how the Sammeeeees decide to
try to respond. Well played!

Yours,
Dante


And he clarified the garbled bits:

AJ wrote:

Greetings Dante!

I am still buzzing from my performance! You know I have always been a
bit of a ham, Dante! I enjoy the limelight! Below you will find the
end of my well prepared speech to the Sammeeeees. Thank you for your
note. It means so much to have those I hold dear to step forward and pat
me on the back!

Cheers to you!

ONCE PEEPS COMES HOME TO ME, I WILL RELEASE THE FIVE TO YOU. YOU
SAMMEEEEES MUST THEN SEND THE DISC TO ME WITHIN FOUR DAYS OR PEEPS WILL BE
GONE FOREVER. ….. j'espère que vous comprenez.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

AUVOIR, SAMMEEEEES, AND GOOD NIGHT.


Warm Regards,

Mr. Alan Johnson

So, what are some ideas? I woke up this morning and thought I'd post mine (since I can't hang out in chat during the day).

We can say "no way". I think this would sort of end the game at that point and raise the body count (nooooo, you can't kill Higgs!)

We can agree - but we don't have the piece yet. Ask him to help us find the piece... I'm sure he'd love to get to it before us, and we'd lose all bargaining power at that point. Oh, and ask him for the truth about Tutu!

Except we are miles ahead on this race and we don't tell him how far we've traveling that blasted Trail (tears is right, and a few pulled hairs).

Even when we do find it, we don't tell him right away (and still can't tell him about the snake). Have to drag it out long enough for The Keeper to get all the pieces together (including the snake) and figure out what he/she needs for the reversal ritual (which may or may not require TM's help). Cause once we tell Mr AJ we have the 5th piece, Peeps has only 4 days. But when Mr AJ finds out Peeps doesn't have the snake, we may not even have that.

Please, please, please post your ideas.... and then maybe danteIL send him the Sammeeeee response?

Edit to add a comment from Cathy's email:
Cathy wrote:
Let's try to keep the news that we have piece five from Alan as long as possible. Timothy is trying to find something (anything) we can use as leverage to keep Alan from executing Peeps.

well, either we act like this last piece is taking forever to find, or we start the trade for Peeps & the five.

I think holding out until the weekend might work, but the keeper will have to let the white roses know the plan to take the disc to a place of power & reverse the ritual. Which means having control over the arrival of piece 4 & 5 which may not be possible at this point (at least for piece 4.)

I have a sneaking feeling that if Peeps is with AJ when the "spell" is broken, that everything will still be okay. I think there is more to the story of those 2 than we have been told.

I think we need to stall at least until tomorrow, until we hear what Dick White has for us.
So we just have to tell AJ that we accept his offer and we will let him know once we located piece 5.

But now that leaves us with what 4 secrets to try and keep from him?

Music in the video

I asked AJ what music was used in this video, his reply from this email:
Quote:
<snip> that song is on a limited edition for the glorious musical "Moulin Rouge". The people behind that film decided to release some of the music that had not been included in the original soundtrack.<snip>

[EMAIL] 12/9 Where will Peeps be on Sunday?????

Will you allow Peeps to contact us via the computer when he is your guest?
And will you allow him to be a witness to the release of the Sammeeeees?

Thank you,
Heather


Greetings Heather!

Peeps is here with me right now! He sends you all his best! I will allow some limited use of the email for him. I will NOT allow him to attend the release. Dear, dear Heather, do you take me as a fool????? It would be far too easy for the white rose to plan to take Peeps in such an insecure location. I do hope the news that you shall be able to hear from the man called Peeps via the wonder of email will keep your Sammeeeee heart happy!

Cheers to you, dear Heather!

Warm Regards,

Mr. Alan Johnson
