Archie hugged her as everyone else made sounds of distress.
Finally, Skye said, “There’s only one thing I still don’t understand.”
“What?” Ruby and Archie asked together.
“How Lance just happen to have all the costumes handy to disguise himself all week.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the guy tied to the chair. He shrugged. “There part of my act. I’m not really a crook, but I owed Mr. Masterson’s son-in-law a favor, and Mr. Carretti called it in. In my real life, I do a show at the Majestic Casino impersonating dead movie stars.”
Charlie grunted, unimpressed. “What are we going to do with this guy?”
“Turn him over to Wally,” Skye said firmly.
Lance cringed. “Mr. Carretti’s going to kill me.”
“Don’t worry.” Bunny patted his shoulder. “Maybe Wally can put you into the witless protection program."
Skye snorted, not sure if the redhead knew what she had just said. Either way, Skye was glad that school would be starting up again on Monday and that this was her last day working at the bowling alley. Dealing with hormonal teenagers had to be easier than this past week with crazy Bunny and her even crazier friend.
