I wonder what the museum guys promised the guard for not talking... or is his own masculine ego that is making him feel as though he would be a laughing stock for backing up the children's claims that a mummy attacked them.
Foolish humans.

...

Pryce kicks booty! Evidently Grandfather only hires people who are as awesome as he is. And...is he really trying to convince the judge that it was a mummy that did it? Only in Duskerville...

Jenkins is here? Zoiks! Actually, I'm not that worried. All he can be is a character witness, and Ranger Eric can simply contradict him. The teacher (whose name escapes me...sorry, teach!) could try and do the same, except Pryce will then bring up that it was already proved to be Dark Peter she has a grievance with, pausing only to sign autographs for his millions of screaming fangirls.

Longest comment ever?

Latio = A gentleman I had the honour of meeting in Monte Carlo. He was up for arson, until Pryce rode into the courtroom on a white stallion and proved that it was in fact a dragon.

I really like Grandfather's vernacular, although it's unusual to see "Hell" so often in a story about children. Tame, of course, compared to Charlie's and Gus's killings.

AnakMoon -
I think it's his own masculine ego AND his own fragile sense of sanity. I mean...c'mon. MUMMIES?!

Rubberduck -
The mummy angle will be problematic, as we will soon discover...

Pryce has million of screaming fangirls?

Or are you saying Dark Peter is actually...Justin Bieber?

Todd -
True, true.

But I feel like I can get away with a certain amount after Ron uses the word "effing" (not the full f-bomb, just "effing") in HARRY POTTER AND THE DEADLY HALLOWS.

Now THAT was one that shocked ME.
