Cary put down his binoculars and sighed. Nothing interesting was going on in his neighborhood. For reasons unknown to him, his neighbors decided to be boring tonight. It was a shame too. He thought it was going to be the night the unmarried couple two doors down were going to break up.
With a frown, Cary climbed down his fortress where the Riddler, his dog, was waiting for him with his leash in his mouth. He took the leash and petted the Riddler affectionately. "I get the hint. It can't be anymore boring out there," he said as he attached the leash to his dog's collar.
Once he was sure the Riddler wouldn't break free, Cary led his dog out of the yard and down the street. When they reached the corner of his block, the Riddler decided they needed to go left. Cary let the dog lead the way. It was much more preferable than sitting around waiting for his neighbors get interesting. Two blocks later, Cary saw a classmate walking around and gently got the Riddler to go in the right direction. "Good night for a walk," he commented, deciding not to go with 'the eagle has landed' for his opening. "Do you do this often?"
