"All right, you two," Mike said after stowing his duffel in Kitt's trunk. "We're on our way to New York. Michael said no meeting in him in Denver - so he'll see us sometime soon. And that means you two get to work in tandem for a while."

"This should be interesting," the elder said.

The younger agreed. "Our strengths should complement well."

"Just warn me before you decide to unsheathe those gatling guns of yours."

"Of course."

Mike smiled as he climbed into the driver's seat. "Okay, boys, off we go."

Jim gave Lois a smile, though, and said, "I'm pretty good at washing hair. I'll give you a hand when we get home."

Just an offer, but he was pretty sure Lois would take him up on it, especially if he was careful. And maybe a little creative on how he did it. After all, their kitchen counter was a little tall for that.
