INT. BURGER JOINT - AFTERNOON

[Dick Grayson]

No way! Dude, you've got to be kidding me!

[Dray]

I'm all the way serious.

[Tim Drake]

How could someone even be that cruel? I mean I've had rude teachers before but I never would have gone that far.

[Dray]

She was one of the most hated teachers in Granite Bay. She didn't slide for as long as you're thinking either.

[Dick Grayson]

Looks like you have a pretty eventful life in Bedrock.

[Dray]

Well, it's okay. It's nothing like a private school. Or even this city for that fact. Dude, I couldn't even imagine Bedrock looking like this.

[Tim Drake]

It's not all it's cracked up to be. A bunch of spoiled rich kids thinking they own the world because their parents are rich—.

[Dray]

Well, to be fair.

[Tim Drake]

Yeah, I know. I heard the words too. It doesn't make it so though either. Money is all they have.

[Dick Grayson]

Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches.

[Dray]

...Or slide.

DICK GRAYSON LAUGHS.

[Dick Grayson]

Bro, I cannot believe they oiled a hallway and slid a teacher down it. That's crazy. Boy, Alfred would be so disappointed in me if he heard me laugh at that story.

[Tim Drake]

Oh, by the way, Bruce told me to tell you he said hi.

DICK GRAYSON TAKES A SIP OF HIS SODA AND LEANS BACK IN HIS SEAT.

[Dick Grayson]

Figures. Man, Bruce, never calls. He does have his way of checking in from time to time, though. Speaking of which, you guys must have run into him at the library.

[Tim Drake]

Yeah. I don't think I did a convincing enough job either. He knows something is up, I could tell.

[Dray]

Who is he to you guys?

[Dick Grayson]

That's a longer story than I care to get into right now. What did you guys manage to figure out at the library?

[Tim Drake]

We were able to figure out that Leuruna's name was an anagram. Specifically her first name oddly enough. Eur Luna was what I was able to decipher.

[Dick Grayson]

...Moon coin?

[Dray]

You got that on the first go?

[Dick Grayson]

You pick up a lot with a job like this.

DRAY, DICK GRAYSON, AND TIM DRAKE SIT AT A BOOTH TOGETHER IN A BURGER JOINT. DICK GRAYSON POINTS A FRY AT DRAY AND TIM DRAKE.
