LeRoy hurried to the car and popped the trunk, pulling out a long metal rod. He approached the
storefront with it in two hands, like a baseball bat. With that, Tom Fogarty grabbed a file folder and
walked out from the back room into the front office, not looking up, as if he was unaware anyone was

Fogarty approached the locked door. "No! Sorry! Tomorrow!"

"I had an appointment!" LeRoy shouted.

"Yes! Today! Now let me in!"

Tom went to the secretary's desk and looked at the calendar, then slapped himself in the head, looking
embarrassed and apolo-getic, and hurried to the door. Cornelius stepped in front of LeRoy as LeRoy
skipped back to the car and tossed the metal rod in the backseat. "Now we're in business," Cor-nelius
said.

Sergeant Fogarty had LeRoy and Cornelius right where he wanted them.

who had also disappeared in the vanishings.
