Barely had Rosalynn left when Mike and Calvin rounded up the kids for home.

"Are Mommy and Daddy not home from work yet?" Ivy asked, looking around for her parents and then querying Laura.

Laura was not smart, but she knew how to read a room.

"No, they just called to say they won't be home for dinner, so you guys should eat and then go do your homework and go to bed. Don't wait up," Laura quickly replied, " I made your favorite types of cookies, they're fresh from the oven! Come, let's go to the dining room!"d2

Seeing Laura's anxious demeanor, Calvin became suspicious, so he sent a message to Rosalynn.

"Ms. Gabriella, you're not coming home for dinner?"

Rosalynn called back almost immediately. Calvin quickly answered.

"Calvin, I have to go out and take care of something. I'll probably be back late. Please keep an eye on Cory and Ivy and make sure they get to bed early."

And why did he end up at the police station?

Why call Ableson over at this time?

Ableson left for the old house about ten minutes before Rosalynn.
