Chapter thirteen - Tranquility Base here

Sure enough, the base of the fire extinguisher could be removed and inside was a rolled up picture of the surface of the moon with Neil Armstrong’s famous quote; “Houston, Tranquility Base here, the Eagle has landed.”

“Dad is there anything else in there?”

“Nope, just the Moon picture with the Moon landing quote.”

“Well that is kind of anticlimactic, I guess we can just go home and forget any of this ever happened.”

Stunned, “What?”

“Seriously Dad, you need to be able to figure out when I am kidding. We must be missing something. Is there anything else strange with the fire extinguisher or anything else that seems odd or out of place.”

“Well, there was just an earthquake and an aftershock, so most everything is out of place.”

“Point taken, I think you may have put these clues her for yourself as the keycard has your name on it and has gotten us this far.”

“Ha ha Nancy, good one, but you didn’t fool me this time.”

“No Dad, I’m serious, these clues have all been pretty weird and definitely setup in a way that you and I could figure them out relatively quickly. Even with you having amnesia.”

“You may have a point, but why not just do what I wanted to do without setting up this elaborate set of clues.”

“Maybe you were afraid someone was following you and you needed to throw them off your trail, though how you got amnesia and why I got conked on the head still does not fit it.”

“You know if you are correct, we may be in danger, let’s grab the inspection tag, the picture and the PFL and get somewhere where we can think about this and maybe get something for dinner, all this stair climbing and thinking makes me hungry.”

“Right on Dad, how about Red Lobster?”

“That sounds great, but all you ever get is Chicken Tenders.”

“Dad, I grew out of that years ago.”
