THE HORTON RESIDENCE Bo: Is there anyone you know of who might be trying to pull a fast one on you, Mrs. H? Alice: A fast one? Bo: Yeah, like a prank. Alice: Well, there is someone who delights in being a practical jokester. My granddaughter’s husband. Roman: Who? Bo? Bo: No, not me. Roman: Doug Williams? Bo: She’s talking about Jack Deveraux. Alice: That’s right. Jack. Roman: When was the last time you saw him? Alice: Over Labor Day. At Bo and Hope’s backyard barbecue. Bo: Hmmm. What do you say, bro? You up to a trip across the pond to see ole Jack? Roman: If it’s on the City’s nickel, sure, let’s go. SALEM INTRUDER, LONDON BUREAU Jack: Well well well. What are you Yankees doing here? Bo: We’ve got a couple questions for you, Jack. Jack: I’m usually the one who conducts the interviews. Roman: Where were you on the night of ... um ... where were you … um ... Help me out Bo. Bo: Let’s cut to the chase. Did you take Mrs. H’s Christmas ornaments? Jack: Say what??? Roman: They’re missing. Jack: Stop the presses! Roman: And we have reason to suspect you took them. Jack: Me?  No no no. No way I would ever touch those. In fact, I’m not allowed to even handle them. Jennifer is the only one who can touch the balls. She knows how clumsy I am and she’d rather break my balls than let me break them. Roman: Looks like we made a trip for nothing. Bo: Long as we’re here, how about going to the Pub across the street and raising a pint. Roman: I like da sound of dat, little brother. Jack: Wait up. I’ll join you. To be continued... |

THE HORTON RESIDENCE
Molly: What did Bo find out?
Alice: They have a lead.
Molly: Excellent!
Alice: In London.
Molly: Wow. That’s like Sherlock Holmes stuff. Wait a second. London? Don’t tell me they suspect Jack Deveraux!
Alice: They don’t really suspect him. They just wanted a little vacation.
Molly: Oh good. I found out something too.
Alice: Did you? Tell me, dear.
Molly [powering up her laptop]: Check this out. It’s ebay.
Alice: What bay?
Molly: ebay.
Alice: Is that a tributary to the Salem River?
Molly: Ha! No, it’s an Internet auction site. Look at what happens when I search for “Horton Christmas ornaments.”
Alice [gasping]: Julie and Doug’s balls! Addie's! Tom's! Mine! Mickey's, Bill's, David's, Scotty's, Marie's, Tommy's, Mike's, Jennifer's, Jack's, Lucas's, Jessica's, Melissa's, Bo's, Hope's....
