Vic chuckles. "I did, but I forgot my sack lunch. It's too bad, I had Fruit Rollups and everything." He pauses to watch the ducks turn their bills up at bread crust and then waddle on down to the water. He hadn't even known ducks could be snooty, but maybe he shouldn't be surprised. They're not that different from geese, and geese are known to be the devil in feathered form.

"Really?" He perks up a little. "That sounds more exciting. I might have to see about scheduling one of those." The groundskeeper isn't being very helpful, not for Vic's purposes at least. He can't tell whether it's intentional or not, though. Oh well. He made small talk, laid the foundations for more informative conversation later. Now if only...

"Well," he says finally, "I'd better go back and look for those maps. Nice talkin' to ya. I'm Vic." He could have faked an identity for this investigation, but he didn't think it was necessary.
