I know it's been a long time. Did you get the last chapter of "Hood to Hero"?

"Double Trouble"

[9:00 AM Fargo, North Dakota, USA]

The door to the Pioneer Lodge flew open. The newly escaped Doctor Gunner
Maelstrom entered the small hotel. His two henchmen: Bilge and Eagle Eye,
followed close behind.

Another hotel guest, Lee Jordan, didn't pay much attention. That is, until
Eaggle Eye crashed into him.

"Hey, watch it!" Lee cried as he disentangled from Eagle Eye. A small bag
fell from Le's pocket, who quickly snatched back it up.

Bilge clucked his tongue. "Now you've done it."

Maelstrom shook his head. "Eagle Eye, you idiot. Why can't you watch where
you're going?"

"But, Boss!" Eagle Eye whined. "It wasn't my fault!"

"You know," Bilge added."When we get rich, you can afford SOME LASER EYE
SURGERY!"

"I'll do the yelling around here," Maelstrom corrected. He then grabbed Eagle
Eye and screamed in his face, "SO YOU CAN GET YOUR 20/20 VISION BACK!"

"You can't yell at me like that, boss," Eagle Eye complained. "There's
nothing wrong with my hearing."

"But there is with your eyesight," Bilge observed.

"What?" Eagle Eye screeched. He and Bilge began to fight.

Lee watched silently.

"Stop it, you two!" Maelstrom commanded.

"You oughta tell Bilge to shut up!" Eagle Eye whined loudly.

"Why can't you get glasses?" Bilge asked.

"I don't need em!" Eagle Eye argued. "I can still see a flea on the nose of a
distant dog!"

"Yeah...if the flea were magnified six thousand times. Sheesh, if you don't
want coke bottle glasses, then try contacts!"snapped Bilge. "Heck, it'll beat
bumping into everything!"

"Oh, yeah?" Eagle Eye challenged. He tried to punch Bilge, but missed.

Maelstrom rolled his eyes. "I bet mind readers only charge you two half
price." He turned to Lee. "I apologize for my lookout's clumsiness."
