Subject: Bingo Cult
Old lady extraction: Successful!
Sarah and Nine were able to rescue Doris O’Neal from the clutches of the Bingo Cult, and she’s now… sleeping? I hope she’s sleeping. She might be dead? No. No, she’s still breathing. But she’s in some sort of time-warp-jet-lag coma. We hope she wakes up soon, and then maybe she can fill us in on why the Bingo Cult wanted to kidnap her. I mean, we already know the gist of it, sure, but there must’ve been something she saw down the road that really caught their eye. Or maybe they’re just being bad guys for the sake of being bad guys.
Unfortunately, as far as Nine and Sarah could tell, there were no signs of Joy with Doris. It’s not a terribly large place, and as far as any of us know, what you see is what you get. I doubt they were hiding the massive 10-foot-tall crystal there. However, it won’t take long for the Bingo Players to realize we’ve stolen back their star player. Even if they haven’t been consistently checking on her, Sarah is pretty sure Felix will know about the intrusion. The real question is if the Bingo Cult will try to get her back or not? I don’t know if they’d be willing to go up against the entirety of the Astoria 23rd Agency… I guess it depends on how crucial she is to their plans.
In any case, Jenny, Max, and I will stick around until she wakes up. Astrid is pretty eager to hear what she has to say, too, but she can’t afford to sit around all day like we can. I hope this rescue mission earned the Ampersands a gold star or whatever the Agency’s measure of success is. It doesn’t get much better than having Doris O’Neal in the flesh, does it? Well… I guess… assuming she eventually wakes up, anyhow.
