 * Inari finds Agent Neighland's report completely true. It was a wild fracas indeed. Neighland and another pony, a teary-looking stallion in a nicer suit who must be Dr. Petri, had just finished double-teaming one of Moo Min-Yon's dacoits. In the rush up the stairs, the latter pony knocked over a lantern and failed to notice his error.


 * They burst into the office at the top, where they found the fiendish bull himself behind a writing desk. However, the floor gave away beneath them and plunged them into a watery pit concealed below. Neighland hollered at Dr. Petri not to try climbing out. A close inspection of the pool reveals that the only surface on which to climb—indeed the one surface towards which a drowning pony would gravitate for dear life—was a razor-sharp metal blade that could easily remove the flailing swimmer's hoof.


 * So there was a trap underground, and there was a fire.


 * Despite all his jingoism and misdirected energy, it would seem that Agent Neighland is an honest pony who has seen his share of horror.


 * Spearmint fans his wings out wider.

Mr. Spearmint: "Dragon, stand by the door."

Flashfire: "Hey, the name's Flashfire. Or the the Astonishing Flashfire, if you prefer."

Mr. Spearmint: "Door, dragon."

Flashfire: "Ugh. Yessir."


 * She turns to exit and stand guard at the door, as directed.
