Deep concern came upon Agent Murphy's face. "Okay, let's get moving, there's no time to waste." He replied hopping into the car. "Let's get going to Fort Snelling.:

Howard thanks the person who helped him and bought him a drink. He then goes to his car and makes the drive to Fort Snelling. He first thinks he should tell the detective of the information but he will try to find Henri first. If the base does not let him in then he will notify the police.

Agent Murphy was ready to jump in the car, but the taxi had already left and he and Andrew had walked here. So they called for another taxi at the nearest public payphone and waited for their ride to Fort Snelling. Earlier in the afternoon, Howard Feinstein had shown up at the entrance to Fort Snelling and, because he had ID on him, was admitted. Henri and Jean Deselles were there. Luckily, Henri recognized Howard and said it was okay, but Howard could not see them without two armed guards present. Howard and Henri were still talking when Agent Murphy, Andrew, and "Leigh Mink" showed up. (( roll: 9)) ((Hooray! You're all in a room together! It's in the guard house north of the round tower.))

((I'll try to keep the ball rolling this week...))
Henri Deselles was a stranger to Andrew and Agent Murphy, but he recognized Leigh Mink. Only, he called him -
"Liam, you are back so soon? Is 'ze danger over now? Zis is 'ze Cabalist - 'ze greatest magician I have ever seen perform. I have been explaining to him how men wish to kill me and...my wife," he said derisively, pointing to the woman on the other side of the room from him. "He can aid you, n'est-ce pas?"

Stepping forward, Agent Murphy displayed his ID. "Agent Murphy Mr. Cabalist sir, so why don't you fill me in on who has been trying to kill you and your wife?"

The Leading Man was having difficulty. His role in this scene was...unclear. He had also succeeded in getting Henri into the hands of the government. It seemed like he deserved a rest. He sagged into a chair and waited for the magician and the agent to sort out the situation.

Howard the Caballist shakes hands with agent Murphy and says to Henri " If you didn't see the paper this morning Henri Sid death was solved. Now that I found you hear safe do we need to notify your maid that you are okay and why are you here?"

"I am...not sure I can even answer your questions..." Henri said, sitting down. "Ze men who are trying to kill me are Fifth Columnists. First one of 'zem tried to convince my wife to kill me," he said, glaring across the room at the seated woman. "When 'zat failed, three of 'zem came to my house 'ze other night. Liam Mortimer" he said, pointing to Leigh Mink, "he fought off two of 'zem, but another one killed the others so 'zey would not talk. Why 'zey wanted me dead? I do not know for certain, but we suspect it is because of photos I took on vacation in 'ze Sawtooth Mountains. Zese Fifth Columnists may be hiding in a cave we saw.
"As for our maid, Erica...she is good to me."
Mrs. Deselles hmph'ed at that.
"I wish you would tell her 'zat I am fine and safe," Henri continued. "Ze papers say I was kidnapped, but 'zat was not so. Monsieur Mortimer only took us away to keep us safe. But Erica, she must be so worried, non?
"And Sid's death...who did it? Was it 'zese Fifth Columnists?"

Rick brow furrowed and the sound of this exchange. Who was this man that he just spoke about. He thought his name Leigh Mink but now he's some guy called Liam? Walking over to the man now sitting down he glared down at him with arms crossed.
"Alright, buddy just who are you?"

Howard says " the murderer was roscoe and his trained chimp. He used his chimp to sneak into sid's room and wait. Then when he walked in it shot and killed sid. Roscoe came back and made it look like a suicide. Roscoe loved and obsessed after June and June did not want rosCoe. I will tell Erica that you are safe and I assume the government is going to tell the police that Henri is safe. Other then that how can I be of assistance. ?"
Seeing then Rick'a questions to the leading man he remembers seeing him at the show backstage after the murder, coincidental?

"I do not think it...wise...to inform anyone of Henri's safety or of anything," The Leading Man said after listening to the magician's plan to get more people killed. "It is best if the Silver Shirts know nothing. The maid will be sad. But she will recover."
He then shifted his eyes to meet Rick's.
"I work for the government, solving problems. Until I can get in touch with my supervisors, I need you to help keep the Deselles safe. You can keep the Army from evicting them. In the meantime I aim to smash up their base north of here. That's why I bought all that stuff."
