Chapter 21 Summary

A man appears behind Sam and pushes him down the stairs, but Four instinctively lifts his hands and catches him with his telekinesis before he hits the concrete floor. Sam backs away from Four, eyes wide with shock. Henri is resigned and decides to tell Sam the truth. Sam is stunned, but then he smiles; he says that he knew Four was different.

Four and Henri tie up and interrogate the man who pushed Sam. The man says that three Mogadorians visited them and threatened them if they published any more information about them. They were pale with black eyes and pointy teeth, and they wore sunglasses, long coats, and hats. The Mogadorians wanted to know the source for their story, and they told them about an anonymous man who called with the exclusive. The man talked so fast they couldn’t write it all down, but they printed what they could make out. The anonymous caller said that he captured a Mogadorian and tortured it. They couldn’t tell if he was crazy or not since he kept repeating a bunch of numbers. The caller never followed up with them because the Mogadorians got to him instead.

The man tells Four that the Mogadorians messed with his mind.
