“Not sure it’s turning up anything useful,” I said. “It all seems sort of random. But wait, somebody Google ‘REO Flying Cloud hot rod’ while I keep looking.”
“On it,” Dez said. Then a moment later, “It’s just an old car.”
“Wait,” Patrick said. “On the list. Doesn’t it ask for the Yeti’s favorite band? Maybe it’s
REO
Speedwagon?”
“Hold on,” I said, having scrolled farther down and found another phrase worth following up on and then Googling “flying cloud thunderclap eruptor,” which turned out to be an old cannon. I shared this tidbit with the group and then we fell into silence.
Nothing was clicking.
Patrick said, “It says ‘stick your neck out for clues’ so that probably means that the Hangman game gives a clue to the Yeti’s favorite band. So just send in REO Speedwagon.”
“I just don’t think it’s right,” I said. “It doesn’t feel neat enough.”
“Just send it,” Winter said. “It’s only a ten point deduction if we’re wrong.”
“Fine,” I said, then sent the text.
SORRY, the Yeti wrote back. BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.
“Told you,” I said to my team. “That’s not it.”
“We should go,” Patrick said, lifting his torso up and resting back on his elbows.
He was right.
It was time to get back to the business of the hunt for real. We’d spent almost an hour at Mohonk—a big risk, considering we were walking away with only 101 points, which brought our total to 994—so the Flying Cloud clue had better pay off.
I checked my phone but there was still no response to our having solved the Winston Churchill jumble, then we all stood up and, from the way we did, bodies all slow and tight, you would have thought we were zombies climbing out of our graves.
“I’m sleepy,” Winter said, and I said, “You’ll get over it.”
“We need some fast points,” Patrick said, and he and Dez started brainstorming on the way to the car while I tugged on Winter’s arm so that she’d lag behind.
“So?” I said.
“So I like him,” she said, and she shrugged a shoulder
I was about to say, “But you know I like him,” but instead I said this: “He has a girlfriend.”
“I know,” she said, “and I feel bad about that, but he doesn’t even like her like that anymore.”
I said, “Well, he should tell her that!”
“He will,” Winter said, and she looked so sure of it, so cocky, that I hated her for a minute.
“I don’t believe you,” I said, trying on righteous indignation for size. “Jill’s our friend.”
“I bet if he were breaking up with her for you, you’d feel differently,” she said.
My face burned and I walked faster, to outpace her, as if that would prove anything, and everything around me seemed shaky, the way things are when the heat is bouncing off the ground beneath your feet on a hot day. Then I got back into the car, where I sat and fumed and tried to read the list. Winter followed a minute later but we didn’t make eye contact in the backseat.
“I think we need to hit the ninety-nine-cent store,” Patrick said, oblivious. “The rest of the weird kitchen stuff. Maybe the maple syrup. There must be more.”
“Sold!” said Dez, with a worried look in the direction of me and Winter. “Or at least let’s head that way until we think of something
