Answer and Explanation
Answer: Fall Update
Explanation: The price of each item can be seen as a pair of letters (using A1Z26). Follow this procedure:
- If there are two of the same orders next to each other, use the second one of the pair.
- If there are two of the same letter in the same pair, delete one.
- Otherwise use the first one of the pair.
Decrypting the red characters give Fal Update, which would make sense if there are two Ls, therefore it's Fall Update.
Summary of Receipt
62 and 53 finally decode the information stolen from Astoria. There’s apparently a connection between them, the Twice Third Temple, the strange flies and the Blood Moon.

CAFE AND DINER RECEIPT FROM 10/15/17
OWNER
RECEIPT: FALLUPDATE01
STATUS: OPEN
I’m glad you’re here.
There’s been a lot happening lately, huh? Even if things seemed quiet on our end. The last major thing to happen was obviously Mrs. Weekend’s assault on the Cafe. Not only that, but 62 finally cracked the salt shakers open that he and 53 “borrowed” from the Lighthouse. So far, we have not made an official receipt on what we found inside them because, well, it’s troubling, to say the least. It seems things are more... connected... then I initially thought between A23, Crow, the Blood Moon, and the mysterious flies. Usually, I’d say we don’t have time to worry about all of our friends, but if our best friends are in Crow’s pocket’s then, well, we can’t help but worry.
I’m going to have 17 look into this A23 connection a bit more closely. Meanwhile, I’ve tasked 134 to look into my gruesome idea regarding Mrs. Weekend. 35 will keep on keeping on. 53 will be launching a new coffee flavor soon, so be ready for that. And 323 has discovered something interesting. I’m not really sure what to make of it yet... it seems like a Canadian device of sorts. I’ll have 62 look into it.
Ah, and of course, the most crucial piece of news. We’ve found a fast-food branch locally. One Jedidiah’s chains. Seeing as the “triple threat” has already done some digging into them, I’m going to have them deliver a singing telegram. I think I know what Jedidiah’s is cooking up besides chicken, but I don’t want to tip my hand too early if I’m wrong.
Back in action,
