Pages 260-280 Summary

Revealing his suspicion that ELF now knows they are onto the group, Kenner asks Evans to go talk to Drake with a transmitter hidden in his cell phone. Back in Los Angeles, Evans is on his way home when a man claiming to be a private investigator hired by Morton tells him that he is being followed. He says that he had earlier posed as the A/V technician at Drake’s office. He instructs Evans to go to his apartment, and then leave again with the door intentionally unlocked so that the pursuers will enter. He does so before going to his law firm’s office. Lowenstein informs Evans that Drake asked them to do a confidential job to somehow get the money Morton had previously promised to NERF, which Evans protests.

Kenner and Sarah head to a military surplus store, having found out that ELF purchased a number of rockets. They question an attendant at the store, who tells them that “Brewster” from Antarctica had come in the store just minutes ago. Sarah finds the man and follows him out the store. After she tracks him for a while, the man gets in a truck. Kenner appears in a car, she gets in, and they follow the truck toward Arizona.
