[The video feed comes on, and there is Kate. She's standing in the middle of her living room, which just so happens to be decked out in Christmas decorations. And she's wearing 6-inch heels.]

Okay, guys, check this out.

[Propping up the phone, she backs away and starts running laps around the living room. An excited beagle jumps off the couch and chases her around. After that display, she stops in the middle of the room and does a pretty impressive roundhouse kick in the direction of nothing in particular. Then she comes back and picks up the phone, barely winded.

Behind her, the dog is jumping and barking.]

Everyone is posting about their awesome super power discoveries so I thought I'd share. I totally figured out mine.

Bad-ass ninja skills.

[It sounds like as good an idea as any to Kate, but she might just have her hopes set a little high on how cool her life actually is.] What are all the other books about?

Oh, all sorts of things! History, and biology and geography... There's an old encyclopedia set - very well worn - with my name in the front cover absolutely full of side commentary! There are even a few half-finished ones that look hand-written. All about fantastic things... alchemy and equivalent exchange, changing one thing into another. It sounds marvelous, doesn't it?

[Well, one thing's for sure. Your little sister is passionate about her books, Kate.]

[Kate laughs, nodding.]

Yeah, actually, it all sounds pretty interesting. But I think you're probably the brains and I'm probably the brawn. I bet we make one hell of a team.

Oh no, I'm sure you're very smart in your own right. But I get the feeling that you don't have the time to do all the research while you're off saving the world. We should look for any case files we have, in case there's something important we're supposed to be taking care of, don't you think?

That's a great idea. Maybe we should go down to the police station and see if there's anything with our names on it. [Or, at least, what they think their names are.] Someone might need our help.
