ROBIN AND ANASTASIA HAD INFORMED ERICA ON WHAT SHE needed too do. The younger girl insisted on seeing the air duct and followed them into the back room where she looked inside using the flashlight. Erica hummed, stepping down from the ladder. "Yeah, I don't know."

"You don't know if you can fit?" Dustin asked her, the four stood beside one another in front of her, impatiently waiting for Erica to declare if she was going to help them or not.

"Oh, I can fit. I just don't know if I want to." Erica shrugged.

Robin asked, "Are you claustrophobic?"

Erica snickered at the question. "I don't have phobias."

Steve glanced at Anna and rolled his eyes. "Okay, well, what's the problem?"

"The problem is, I still haven't heard what's in this for Erica." She answered, too which Anna got the idea and shared it with them.

They then moved over to a booth at the front of Scoop's Ahoy, handing over Erica various different ice creams for her to eat. Steve slid over the next one, a banana split which she pushed away. "More fudge, please. Go on." Steve reluctantly took it from her and walked away slowly.

Robin started off the conversation, grabbing out the blue print for Erica too see. "All right. You see this? This is the route you're gonna take. Then we just wait till the last delivery goes out tonight. Then you knock out the grate, jump down, open the door."

"Then you find out what's in those boxes?" Erica finished off.

"Exactly." Anastasia confirmed.

Erica hummed. "And you say this guard is armed."

Dustin was quick to answer. "Yes, but he won't be there."

"And booby traps?" Erica questioned.

Anastasia looked between her friends. "Booby traps?"

"Lasers, spikes in the wall?" Erica listed off for them. "You know what this half baked plan of yours sounds like to me? Child endangerment."

"We'll be in radio contact with you the whole time--" Robin assured her.

"Ah, ah, ah!" Erica stopped her, putting her finger in Robin's face. "Child endangerment."

Dustin got her attention. "Erica? Hi. Uh...we think these Russians want to harm to our country. Great harm. Don't you love your country?"

"You can't spell 'America' without 'Erica,'" She announced, causing the trio to think for a moment, meanwhile, she slurped the last of her drink loudly.
