Fourth and Ford managed to get to the hotel in one piece, and Fourth didn't notice anyone following them luckily. He did wonder where his father and father-in-law(?) disappeared to or what they meant about "dealing with it" and what on earth "it" was. He was afraid of why on earth he was being followed. He wasn't really famous or anyone of great importance. Sure, he was the son of Apo and Mile, but that's just about it. (He decided that he didn't want to think about his relation to the royal family)

Ford had interesting theories about why Fourth was being followed. They ranged from crazy to downright outrageous. He ended up sharing those theories with his father, Mile, who found them amusing.

"So you think my husband and Jeff are trained assassins?" Mile asked, mirth dancing in his eyes.

"Yeah! It makes perfect sense." Ford replied oblivious to the exasperation and amusement he was getting from the father-son duo.

"How? How do my father and P'Jeff being assassins make sense?" Fourth asked exasperatedly.

"Well, because they are both hot." Ford replied like what he said made perfect sense and was not ridiculous at all.

"I am inclined to agree." Mile said, nodding along, amused beyond belief.

"Father, please! Don't encourage him. He will actually end up believing that my father is some sort of trained killer." Fourth said to his father, he turned to his friend and said,"How does them being hot equivalent to them being assassins?"

"Well, they are not only hot but have hot husbands. Don't you think it's strange?" Ford asked like he was solving some big mystery and not making ridiculous accusations.

"I am sorry, Fotfot, but Ford makes an excellent point." Mile said, eyes full of mischief and a brilliant grin on his lips.

"Thank you!" Ford said, feeling somewhat vindicated.

Fourth, let put a long suffering sigh and decided to remove himself from this situation before he got a headache. Feeling how tense his neck muscles feel, it was probably too late for that.

"I give up on you two." Fourth said, throwing his hands in the air.

Fourth listened as Ford explained to his father how his other father would make a great assassin then a spy for the government. Fourth is pretty sure that some of the explanation is plot for the movie "Mr and Mrs Smith". He knows the plot because he has watched the movie at least 10 times thanks to Ford.

"Wait! So I am also a spy?" Fourth hears his father ask laughing delightfully.

"Well yeah but of course you and uncle Apo work for different agencies and somehow fell in love." Ford explains and Fourth is now certain that this is the plot to the movie.

"Does he know I work for a different agency? Is it the enemy's agency?" Fourth hears his father indulging his best friend and he just rolls his eyes.

"Well of course he does uncle Mile. How else would he be a super spy if he didn't?" Fourth hears Ford answer like this is all serious and not at all a total rip off from a movie.

"Wait! Do I know?" Fourth hears his father ask and contemplates on moving to the bedroom to be away from this whole conversation but he is too tired to move. Where is Gemini when he needs him?

"Of course uncle Mile. You are also a super spy but of course not like uncle Apo. No one is better than uncle Apo. He is just simply too amazing to have anyone to compete with but you come pretty close." Fourth heard Ford say and he scoffed at that. Ridiculous. This whole conversation was ridiculous.

"Of course. I mean who could possibly compete with Po? No one could come close." Fourth hears his father saying, nodding indulgingly at Ford.

"Exactly! You get me uncle Mile." Ford said way too excited. Fourth guesses if one thing that his best friend and his father have in common is the worship of one Apo Nattawin.
