Natalie spread her hands and said, "This is the answer to your previous question."
Jeff was at a loss. "What answer?"
Karen suddenly interjected, "It's because they ratted out Tim that his house was blown up."
Jeff asked, "What? How's that possible?!"
Karen, as paranoid as ever, added, "Because they're the ones whom Tim's after. Apart from Carl, the only other person you talked to about Tim being a spy was Danny."
Tim was lost for words. "Huh?" He was a special agent, okay? He wasn't a spy. He had shed blood for his country!
Karen looked at him apologetically. "The bug we found earlier gave us the wrong idea, you know."
Tim hesitated. Fine. A spy was actually a type of special agent. It wasn't unreasonable for them to draw that conclusion.
Jeff finally got it. "Is that why those gunmen wanted to kill us when we went to meet Carl?"
He looked at Danny in sheer disbelief. "Why? Why would you do that?"
