Harvey entered a small dusty room were he came face to face with the bomb. "Well, well what do we have here?" He crouched down in front of it. He quickly found the timer. "Hmmm, ten minutes that should be
long enough." Harvey continued to examine it. Before pulling some wire cutters from his pocket and snipping a wire. The bomb's timer blinked then went off. Picking it up Harvey looked at it again. "Now
why was this so damn easy to undo?"

Evan kept a clear eye on the building. He jumped when the phone rang. "Cortez."

"It me." Ronnie answered.

"What did you find out?"

"Well your not going to like this but Harv and Rick Marshall had a class together at the academy."

"So, Harvey knows this guy?"

"I guess so. They're old instructor is going to come by to talk to us."

"Cool just keep him there until Harvey and I get back."

"Will do."

Evan closed his phone. He was totally unaware that Harvey had come up behind the truck. Harvey knocked on Evan's window.  "Damn it Harvey."

Harvey laughed as he walked around to the passenger side of the truck. "Cortez your jumpy."

Evan reached over and playfully slugged him. "You scared me."

"Sorry man."

Evan noticed Harvey caring the bomb. "Um, Harvey that things disarmed right?"

Harvey lifted it up and examined it. "I think so."

As Evan drove back to the SIU he kept glancing over to Harvey who was fiddling with the bomb. "Will you stop messing with that?"

Harvey set it back down in his lap. "I would but Evan this was just too easy to disarm."

"So?"

"So I don't like it."

Evan looked at Harvey over his sunglasses. "Bad feeling?"

"Yeah. Like this was nothing more then a test, and something bigger is yet to come."

Rick sat quietly in his chair. His thoughts were of Harvey the one person that he despised the most.

"Excuse me boss?"

"What?"

"All the bombs have been defused."

Rick silently nodded. "I knew they would be."

"So now what?"

He turned toward Martin. "We're going to make another tape. This time I choose the players."

Martin liked what he was hearing. "Is Leek one of them?"

"He'll be the only one. But unfortunately for him, he's not going to win."

"Sir may I ask you a question?"

"What?"

"Why do hate this guy?"
