Peter was asking June, who was downstairs after the lunch (the Cats event at the theatres was made up by Mozzie [and me, because I just wanted to extend the letter a little] to make Neal think he was coming home late in the afternoon) if she had seen Neal hide anywhere in the house. She opened her mouth to say a word, but she was cut off by the sound of Neal's screaming upstairs. The Feds ran upstairs and when they busted open the door, Peter saw Neal standing there, facing the table, with the letter in his hand. When he turned, Peter was there.

Neal's POV

When I finished screaming, I heard breathing behind me. I turned, expecting Mozzie, but it was actually Peter, with Jones and Diana beside him. Well, I'll be honest, but this was the most awkward situation I've been in my whole life. I know, it's April Fools', but I didn't know Mozzie's pranks would leave me screaming as loud as hell.
I felt my cheeks begin to redden and turn from pink (I was kinda embarrassed pulling off that prank on Peter) to red (from all that screaming) to a very deep crimson.

Peter's POV

I sure guess Neal was expecting Mozzie, because when he turned, I think it's safe to say all the color drained from his face. Something backfired in here, I thought as he said, 'That was so unexpected." Geez, April Fools' day was the worst day for me when I was training as an FBI agent, because I got all the pranks without me firing even a single one on them. Well shame on me and Neal.

Well, the letter said that "we will go to the theatre house to see Cats the Musical, as June reserved for only 3, her, Cindy and another. Since I went with them, I was chosen as the third person to enter the theatres. So please expect me to come home beyond 2:30, as Cats lasts for two hours." Actually Mozzie was...

Cliffhangers!!! Plus a reference to Andrew Lloyd-Webber' beautiful (and yes, 2-hour long) musical Cats. Based on the poems by T.S Eliot and later inspired Tom Hooper to make the movie of it. Shame the CGI was a bust.
