........... Hmmm, I agree hope it is gold, poor Trevor is out $200.00 and an accumulator tank! I really hope they never see the tape, if they do and it is found out they could be in a lot of trouble. The goat left a scenario though, what if they contact Fowler and together they use the story of the antique doll found ten years earlier as containing the hidden tape? Then tape was turned over to the authorities by a concerned owner of the doll. Being that the Aussies have a informant within their ranks, if the story came from that source and way, Trevor would be off the hook. And it would fit that the Aries was damaged and the hull replaced where the doll was found ten years ago. The cartel would assume that Bridget was only trying to kill Trevor to implicate Dirk, and she never had another motive, in their eyes, there was no incriminating evidence and she did not retrieve a non-existent tape aboard the Aries. Their anger will be swift towards Bridget who most likely will have an ear closer to the Aussies then the cartel has and makes a quick desperate exit. That is where the real fun will begin for Trevor and Shane. Great Chapter CJ! Great chapter CJ!

Yep, it is a hoax!

.....Boy am I coming late, sorry my body seems to have decided to take a week off with a very painful kidney/bladder/urinary infection. I won't get graphic, but sleep deprivation produces some awesome hallucinations trips. Ned has given himself up, Shane was a bit right that he will use 'old' equipment' to re-fit, the next logic point is that he indeed has the old hulls off the Aries in the storage yard somewhere. The narrator states; Trevor was getting ever closer to the truth, though he remained blissfully unaware of one critical fact; if he and Shane were ever to attain the secret that they were seeking, that knowledge would mark them for death via the entire cartel. At the moment, Bridget and the cartel sought to destroy the boat, and thus the tape with it. He and Shane were in danger mainly due to their proximity to it. However, if they viewed the tape, they would become the personal targets of one of the world’s largest and most ruthless criminal organizations – one with global reach. So the only logical explanation is that Trevor and Shane never see or find the tape, that customs and Nate have found a 10 year old hull, given that the cartel has a plant in the Australian infrastructure. The finger will point to a lying Bridget and the fact that Trevor and Shane are innocent of any knowledge, thus the cartel needs not to deal with them. That leaves Bridget in a problem, she has to flee and has nobody to have at her side as she prematurely killed Billy. Bridget is resourceful, but there are no characters left for her to lean on. There is no reason for her to go after Trevor anymore other then revenge, the only thing I can think of is that Julie resurfaces. Nice chapter CJ!

.............In case you are wondering, I'm one of those that is yawning, waited til 1:15am!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOEBO!! ...............Hope you have a good one!!

I love the history lesson! Nicely done!

..............He wouldn't dare....... we would storm his cliff dwelling hut carrying torches and pitchforks!!

................ I'll pick door #2.

................Arrrrgggghhhh! I agree, sometimes Lisa doesn't seem to leave well enough alone, what part of danger does she not get? Oh well, I guess the goat needed to spice up their lives a bit. I can imagine that Gonzales will be the one to pull them out of harms way! Finally, Shane and Trevor are focused on searching the Kookaburra, in taking the southern route I wonder if Trevor will meet up with Julie again? Hmmmm! Nice chapter goat!!

................I'm pretty much sure everyone knew he was gay, I thought so many years ago myself.

...................... And I thought he was going to announce that he's an albino!

............. I go to the place that sends me $6.99 coupons for a haircut!

..............So sorry to hear that, an a/c unit can be quite the expense also. Hopefully all will be good soon, looking forward to hear your comments though.

................ I was in gymnastics all through high school and "Sticking the landing means landing on both feet together without taking any extra steps. Any steps or partial steps incur deductions." That is true So you have to bend your legs to help adsorb the shock, then straighten. Anyone that tried to stick the landing straight legged and footed was a fool, you could shatter a knee, tear cartilage and end a career.

..........That was a very nice video, it was painful, honest and awesome!

Sorry but the woman was what 68-73 years of age and had never had to engage in this type of bullying banter before. It was the last day of school, had it happened before the last day, she should have stopped the bus demanded the Students ID and put him/and others on detention. But she is an elderly lady not used to this type of treatment.

......................... Most Excellent Comsie!!!

........... I saw it, bullying knows no boundaries, if I was a parent of one those kids I would have paddled his ass so that sitting down would be a reminder of his transgression, not to mention being disrespectful to the elderly. But I raised my kids better and know that they would have never done what these kids did. Why is there such disrespect out there today, for others and even now the elderly?

.........Bah! 107 here in Vegas, I really don't mind the heat, but the power bill!!! Mike, it was explained to me years ago that the seasons have to play catch up, so even when summer solstice occurs it takes awhile for summer to really kick in. BTW, I was married 29 years ago on Summer Solstice 6/21

............... Could this the title to the next chapter? Operation Mincemeat: How a Dead Man and a Bizarre Plan Fooled the Nazis and Assured an Allied Victory. Hmmm, this old WWII allied trick could work to Bridget's advantage, if planting a falsehood on a washed up body that Bridget failed and Sanchez had her killed because of it should make the authorities in Australia relax. However, I think Gonzales won't be fooled.........Should interesting!!

................. Winemaker, you sure nailed it on the head, errrr well Billy's head! I'm not surprised Bridget killed Billy, I am surprised at how soon she did it though. Sanchez certainly did not see that one coming, Bridget has to be the most sinister cold blooded killer the goat has ever produced, she is worse than the mass murderer Scar. It will be interesting to see what Gonzalez's will do now, and I wonder if the word will get out that a new cartel member is in. I am certain some tongues are going to wag, seeing that a new head is a foreigner and a woman! Great chapter, awaiting next weeks chapter.

.....................I've got to admit I have played a lot of chess, but using the archetypal Epaulette mate I rarely saw unless it was in a fools mate, (4 moves). I mean who the hell would leave the king open and blocked? The other one, I have used before Greco's mate many times. So my crystal ball see's the demise of Sanchez, which is the beginning of the count down to Bridget's demise.

...............I think Billy will be around for a bit longer, he will only be dispensed of if it suits Bridget's needs, besides he is the only one right now that She can trust, she is in a different world right now, in a new situation.

............. Better question is how is Bridget going to connive Sanchez into putting her wet flowers into a vase, will she busy making her favorite dinner for them, and happy Sanchez with his newly acquired head happily agree?

............... Dimethyl sulfoxide, interesting choice for Bridget to use against Sanchez, but I wonder if she is going to prepare a lasagna dinner for him too! Whatever did Billy pick-up from the post office, could she had a another teen killed and beheaded that looked like Trevor? Because the first thing Sanchez is going to want to see is the head. Shane and Trevor are starting to get the idea that there is something is on board the Kookaburra that Bridget wants, I wonder if the Navy can assist them in the search, or will Trevor merely show Shane where and how he had a concealed compartment, and in demonstrating accidentally open it? The danger to Trevor still exists, if they reveal their find to Fowler and word makes it to the wrong ears. Great chapter CJ!
