The evening came and went as Claudia and Steve never returned home which rather frustrated Harper because she was always accustomed to having at least one parent around.
Pete, Myka, and Harper went to the Warehouse, seeing as it was Saturday they couldn't just drop her off at daycare; but Artie made sure to lock the door down to the warehouse as to not have any surprise disappearances.
Artie was attempted to help Claudia and Steve who were still looking for the infamous 'flasher' as Claudia called him while Pete and Myka tried to look for more information on the artifact; Harper remained in the back bedroom.
"Okay, so we know that it's from Area 51, and that it flashes people into disappearing; anything else?" Myka asked as she went through the note cards.
From the corner of her eye she saw something climbing when she turned her head to see Harper climbing up a book shelf.
"Hey!" Myka shouted.
Pete grabbed Harper and pulled her off the bookshelf "WAIT!" Harper remarked, reaching out for a certain book.
Harper leaned towards it and grabbed it, holding it close to her "Okay." She said to let Pete know that he could put her down.
"Harp, what are you doing?" Myka asked.
"I'm helping!" Harper said, sitting down on the floor and opened up the book to the Appendix.
Pete and Myka looked at each other for a moment before silently agreeing that it was better for her to 'help' than lock her in the bedroom all day.
Myka was on the phone listening to Claudia and Steve update on their search for the artifact; Harper had found something in her giant book of conspiracy theories which sparked something of a development.
"Okay, well Harper found something in a book and she said that—"
"NO! I wanna tell them!" Harper protested, standing next to Myka with the book in her hands.
Myka turned to the toddler before turning back to the agents "Hold on." She said before handing the Farnsworth over to Harper.
"Okay, so I know that artifacts develop from a moment in time and types of feelings; well I was reading about how a guard by the name of Crispin Haylord was chasing down a trespasser in the area," she said before taking a break.
Claudia and Steve nodded "Okay."
Harper nodded "Well, while he was chasing the trespasser he was becoming irritated because the guy was running faster than he was and he was trying super hard to keep his light on him; his frustration build up so much that it transferred to the flashlight and the flashlight got him. The guy never came back, but the guard began to get paranoid and got even angrier…so he was fired. Aunt Myka looked into it and the guard ended up dying when he got into a bar fight three years later." Harper explained.
"Oh…okay." Steve remarked.
Harper huffed "I'm not done yet." She remarked.
"Okay, continue." Steve said.
Harper nodded "Okay, well there is a lot of unstable energy in the flashlight so when you get it, be careful when you nooberlice it." She remarked.
Claudia and Steve smiled at her "Neutralize." They said in unison.
"That's what I said!" Harper protested.
Harper went silent as she looked up at the air for a moment before looking back at the Farnsworth "Leena says you should set Phasers to Stun." She said.
"Will do." Claudia remarked.
"Nooberlice." Steve said with a chuckle "She's so cute!" he continued to say as he and Claudia walked along the sidewalk.
Claudia smiled "Alright, lets get focused. So we're looking for a pissed off paranoid man with a flashlight." She remarked.
Steve nodded "Well you've seen his face so maybe it'll be a little easier to catch him next time."
Claudia shrugged "Well, it's been an entire day."
"Yes, and he hasn't tried to flash anybody since we attacked him yesterday…so…what does that mean?" Steve asked.
Claudia looked around the quiet town "I don't know." She remarked.
They walked down the sidewalk in silence before Steve felt someone watching him, he looked over his shoulder to find the very man standing behind them.
"Claudia, look out!" Steve said, turning around and pulling his Tesla from his pocket.
The man shot the light at both of them, only giving Steve a few seconds to shoot his gun at the man who went down with the flashlight.
Claudia ran over to the artifact, opening a bag and carefully dropping it in where a small explosion came out of it.
A small fire erupted in the bag as Claudia closed it, only to find that when she looked up the down had grown a little bigger in population.
The victims of the flashlight were set free, they all looking around and some of them confused.
Steve and Claudia looked at each other before Steve wrapped an arm around his best friend and sighed "Lets go home." He muttered.
"Yeah, lets." She remarked as they both began to walk down the sidewalk with the neutralizing bag in Claudias' hand.
They opened the front door to the Bed and Breakfast, nearly stomping in as they announced their arrival only to be greeted by a shush from Myka.
Claudia and Steve walked into the living room to find Pete and Harper asleep on the couch and a book on his chest.
Myka smiled "It was a long day." She whispered.
"Was it?" Claudia asked.
"Yeah, she read all the conspiracy theory books in the Warehouse, and then we came home and she finished The DaVinci Code, we ate dinner, Pete and her played in the blanket fort and then they fell asleep reading…" she leaned in to see what book was on Petes' chest "…Angels and Demons. Nice, Pete." She said as she gently took the book off his chest.
Steve sighed as he put his overnight bag down and gently pulled Harper up off the couch "I'm gonna go put her in bed." He whispered before he began his gently climb upstairs.
Claudia smiled "Thank you, for taking care of her." She said.
Myka shrugged "It's nothing, she actually did pretty good today." She said.
They two agents nodded off as they stared at each other for a moment "You hungry?" Myka asked.
"Starving!" Claudia proclaimed as she followed Myka into the kitchen.
