Summary of Receipt
116, 611 and Manager 2 track Mr. Bartlett all the way to around the Hotbed. They plan to turn back after meeting with the Long Beach members investigating, but encounter the frozen clowns. They ask for reinforcements while they stall for time, but then things go out of hand somehow.

We've been tracking these strange lights for hours and miles at this point. I'm starting to think maybe this has nothing to do with Dover or Mr. Bartlett at all, seeing as we are now almost 800 miles from where we started. At least the lights keep showing up, so we haven't lost the trail yet. Personally, 116 and myself would have called it in back in Harrisburg, but of course, No. 2 thinks we're on the precipice of something "big." I mean, I can't deny we've seen strange moving lights. At the same time, though... they haven't done anything. They just slowly move from state to state. If this is what extraterrestrial life is, it's not that impressive.
However, this late-night might be finally coming to an end soon. We're a few stops away from where Long Beach is investigating, and No. 2 doesn't want No. 26 to know about this whole wild goose chase. And as 116 would say, "believe you me we'd be fixin' to tell 'em all about it." Though joking aside, maybe we should meet up with Long Beach while they're here. Perhaps they've seen the strange lights too. But 116 doesn't want to be anywhere near Mrs. Pierrot, and with 2 not wanting to be anywhere near 26, it's probably a lost cause. Still, though, I might stop by just to say hi to 323.
So, I guess that's probably that. We're going to have to shelve this tab for now and maybe revisit it if we get another piece of comfort food to chew on. But seeing as Long Island is close by, we can probably manage to keep an eye on it. So-
Wait. Hang on. That... can't be good.
Change of plans. We're going to have to shelve DDM regardless. It seems like the Long Beach team had to leave in a rush and left behind some famished customers. Maybe 20-40 of them. We'll do what we can to keep them contained for now though we will need some backup from Long Island and maybe even Long Beach. And-
...Is that? Crap. Crap crap. Gotta go. Make sure to bring a coat.
