Thanks all. Guess I read too much into what the authorities thought they knew … or maybe was just waiting for the bombshell to drop. As @Mary13 states, we did know the inner circle better than they, although the authorities did have a pretty good pulse on the goings on in the Metropol. But I am sure they we surprised by Sophia’s sudden arrival.
@Mary13 I did see that quiz and thought it was interesting that they would so confidently include that question/answer.
