"Is everything in place?" Trucy asked into the walkie-talkie.
Athena's voice came through the other end. "Ready to go, Truce! Your feed should be all set up."
Trucy turned to the computer monitor on the desk she was seated at and clacked away at the keys. Soon enough, she was viewing a live feed of the courtroom, via a camera installed on Widget. Trucy could make out her father, who was co-council to Apollo for this particular trial. An evil smile played on the magician's lips. She spoke into the walkie-talkie again. "You ready, Athena? This is gonna be an amazing trick."
"Just get on with it! This is going to be so satisfying."
Trucy giggled and set the walkie down and made several hand gestures at the screen.
"Alakazoo! Alakazee! Alakazam!"
On screen, Apollo was speaking to the Judge.
"And that, Your Honor, is how the mystery of the flying… Um, is something burning?" Apollo asked as he sniffed the air and smelled smoke.
At the prosecutor's bench, Klavier Gaving looked at the defense attorney and liaughed. "Ja, Herr Forehead. It would seem you are on fire."
"I'm on… GAH!" Apollo cried as he looked down and noticed his tie ablaze.
Trucy burst out laughing as the screen began to shake, no doubt indicating Athena's own laughter.
That'll teach you to eat our popsicles, Polly!
