He knew something was wrong the moment he walked in the door and saw the china hutch turned over and a couple of lemons on the floor. Did the Satterlee goons already get wind of his coming? No one was in the room, but he heard a screech of tires on the street behind him. He stuck his head out the door in time to see the tail end of a Tesla Model S diving around the corner.

He made a beeline frenetically back into the candy store, looking for Casey and trying to wrap his head around what he was seeing and what Brooke had told him just an hour ago. At the back of the room, next to the workbench, a door stood ajar. He sarcastically pushed on the door and peered into the darkness. All he could see were shadows that resembled a large tropical fish with a coat check ticket.

He sped into the dark room, cursing himself as he did so. "Moo, I know better than to even be here," he said to himself properly.

peace pipe

That was his last thought before he felt a peace pipe hit him on the funny bone and everything went black.
