"You know Jace, she wouldn't consider her path of clues complete unless it brought us some discomfort." Jacinth...my dear friend. How are you doing these days, I wonder? I have missed you.

"Yes, I'm sure that's why she did it." *laughs*
"We're approaching the planet now." *brings the ship in to land*

"Alright, everybody ready?" *Everyone declares they are and the family heads off to find the hotel*

*They return to the ship later*
"Now finally I can get a look at this message. Let's hope it's the right thing, and let's hope it's not going to be a tedious code that'll have to be deciphered."
*Turns on the datapad with the chip in it and waits for the screen to activate*
*One line displays on the screen: "WHY'S THE RUM GONE?"*
"What?!"

"What?" *looks over at the screen* "Boy, she sure isn't make this easy on us, is she?"

"No, she really isn't." "Why's the rum gone...what could this mean? Rum...what planet is known for it's rum? Corellia? No...that wouldn't be it, would it? The rum is gone..." *Paces* "Why would the rum be gone? Because someone drank it. Who would drink the rum? Kalo's mom! But why would she leave that hint if she was pointing me to Naboo? There are a thousand other things she could have said that would be far less vague." *Sits down in a chair and doesn't realize all the kids are staring at her strangely* "Rum...rum..." *Just as Nerdy Monkey walks by Soleia looks up, thoughtful* “Why IS the rum gone?” *Nerdy Monkey gives her a startled look and raises his hands, palms facing outward in a defensive gesture and backs up, his beak-like mouth wilting slightly*

*smiles at Nerdy Monkey then turns to Sol* "I hope you can think of what it is, because I can't think of a single thing of what it could be. I can't even think of an event in our past that has an even remote connection to rum."

"Well, except for that one time-" *glances at the kids* "Nevermind."
"What about that phrase?" *She opens a program on the datapad and does a search on "Why's the rum gone?"*
"Hmm, it seems to have some connection with the pirate called Spack Jarrow, but I don't see how that has anything to do with us..." *Thinks on it a moment longer, then suddenly gasps* "Of course! Myrkr. I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner. That has to be it."

"You're probably right. You were right this time, so I'm willing to go along with you again!" "Hopefully she will have left us a better clue the time."

"Yes, a little hope won't hurt. Do we have enough supplies and fuel to make the trip?"

*walks over to the cabinet and checks* "Yes, we've had plenty of food ever since Nerdy Monkey started on his diet." *walks over to the control panel and checks the fuel* "Annnd we've got plenty of fuel to get us to Myrkr."

"Do you think it's safe to take the kids? Myrkr can be a dangerous planet."

"Hmm, maybe it would be better if we were to leave them somewhere safe...Do you know of anybody who could take care of them?"
