It's a normal day at the Safe Place. Zee, Zuzy, and Georgie, are looking at an old box.

"Look what I found!" says Georgie.

"What is it?" asks Zuzy.

It seemed to be a box full of disguise head and facewear. It had a lot of wigs and masks inside of it.

"Where did you get it?" asks Zee.

"Stephanie found it on a supply run!" says Georgie. "I thought we could use it in case we need a disguise to infiltrate a building or make a quick getaway."

Suddenly, they notice that Pony is carrying a big box full of food. 

"Hey, Pony!" says Zuzy. "You making another trip to the top floor of the Safe Place?"

"Sure am!" says Pony.

"What is this, your fifth trip this week?" asks Zee.

Pony nervously chuckles, while blushing.

"So, what do we do with these masks?" asks Zee.

"Are you crazy?!" says Zuzy. "We can't talk about masks at a time like this!"

"What do you mean?" asks Georgie.

"Pony is hiding something", explains Zuzy.

"Yeah", says Zee. "He totally blushed when I brought up how much he's been going to the fifth floor of this place!"

They each talk about what Pony could be hiding, but nobody's idea makes sense.

Zee thinks that Pony just wants to take a walk and get some exercise. Zuzy thinks that Pony is tired of the smell of the floor he lives on. Georgie thinks that Pony is just standing guard in case something happens.

All of the children put on the disguises from the box, and sneakily follow Pony to the top floor of the Safe Place.
