Oh What a Tangled Web We Weave, When First We Practise to Deceive

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 94093

"Er yes. I'm very sorry to have disturbed you. Please go back to sleep. I was just getting the spare bed linen from the cupboard." Astra had decided that in case Fred asked to be shown what she had in the bag it would be best to tell a story that was consistent.

"But why would you do that?"

"Um, the laundry discovered that there was a problem with the last lot of sheets that they washed, and decided that they needed to be washed again."

"In the middle of the night? Hey, I can hear hurrying feet along the corridor. What's going on?"

Astra decides that she has already delayed for too long. Without answering Fred, she makes a run for it.
"I don't know. I'll shut the door so that the noise won't disturb you." Astra does so. She tries to think of a pretext for staying that might satisfy Fred. She daren't go outside till the hunt has died down.
