The Jaguar car being driven to Penrose. Later, it's parked a cross Lisa's house.

"What if Destiny was wrong?" Roman starts, bored of waiting. "What if the invitation was in Willoughby's car? Or her purse?"

"What if the moon hits your eye?" Peter jokes theatrically, making Roman silent for seconds

"What if it was an e-vite?"

"Then the Order of the Dragon will have to find a new adventure." Peter responds, jokingly.

"Suck a bag of dicks!" He snaps at him. "I never called us the Order of the Dragon."

"Yup." Peter sarcasms. Roman just remains silent until his gaze land on something.

"What's with this guy?" Peter looks to where Roman is pointing at to see an old man is passing before them with the help of his Hemi walker

"I don't know. He's just old." Peter says. Roman's face grimaces a bit.

"Gross." Peter glances at him.

"How old's your mom, anyway?" Making Roman look at him.

"Why don't you ask her that?" Then they fall in silence again. Roman messes with the steering wheel for a second before looking at the house.

"Is Nellie gonna show up?" Roman asks him.

"I already texted her hours ago." He shrugs.

"What if she didn't come?"

"If she didn't know she will later." Peter starts to get irritated. They fall in silence again, before bored Roman resumes.

"What if they don't leave?"

"What if we stop beginning sentences with those two words? Hm?" Roman doesn't respond and instead gets whatever he's chewing off his mouth and throws away.

"Fuck Penrose." And gets off the car slamming the door behind him.

"Roman!" Peter calls him out as he jumps off the car to catch him up. "Hey! We were gonna wait till they left." But when they become close to the house Roman suddenly stops before backing away. "What the fuck no--" Roman cuts him off.

"She's coming out." Then turns waiting for her to get out, leaving confused Peter who tries to ask until he gets startled by a figure races out off the pathway, heading to the opposite way of Roman's car.

"Is that her?" Peter asks as the two of them still staring at her way.

"Didn't you say you've texted her." Roman without looking at him.

"She didn't even made seen on it." As she gets in the car that's parked underneath the trees shadows.

She sits on the driver's seat picking up her phone and dials a number as she getting a device from the dashboard.

"Mr. Willoughby?" Mimicking Neck's vioce. "I'm calling you sir about your girl... You've a ripped apart gurl right?"

"...Yes." the man on the other line starts, depressed. "Can I help you?"

"... Well, sir, you must come to the department we got some leads about doer that did it to her, so you must come ere, huh?"

"I'll be right there." And he hangs out. She puts down her phone then the device, then looks in front of her for a second, before she pushes the door open and gets off the car.

"Come out from behind." As she walks away to stop and looks to the end of het car.

Peter and Roman rise their heads from behind the car and Nellie gestures for them to approach her. Peter the firto move.
