After years of anticipation, the Battery Boardwalk has finally opened its doors to the general public. The residents of Sleuthville come streaming in through the ticket booth--a line stretching as far as the eye can see. Among those gaining entry is a group of elite detectives with complimentary day passes to the attractions, invited specifically to keep an eye on things. A week prior to opening, the higher-ups at the Boardwalk had received anonymous threats of sabotage and murder if the Boardwalk was not torn down immediately. However, the proprietor was not one to submit to intimidation. Thus, on opening day, a group of highly-ranked detectives were tasked with keeping the park safe.

Unfortunately, there have been rumors floating around that some in the ranks of the elite had been approached by the mysterious threat-maker, and were now working for him to guarantee the day would end in disaster. It is said only those who turned to the dark side knew who the others were; everyone else had to eye each other with suspicion and make their own judgements. Although the team has been compromised, there is no time to vet and assemble another one on such short notice. Yet the day is young and there are plenty of opportunities to ensure opening day is a success.

The detectives’ job this fine day is to make the rounds of the park and keep an eye out for any suspicious or potentially dangerous activities. If opening day goes off without a hitch, the Boardwalk is sure to bring in millions, and the detectives would stand to receive a substantial cut for their services. But if it were to fail, then Sleuthville would be plunged into financial ruin and return to the days of never-ending guilty clients and exorbitant Shady fees. Oh no.

Will the Battery Boardwalk’s grand opening be an unparalleled success, or will it go down in flames accompanied by nothing but the screams of disappointed visitors? Stay tuned to find out in this installment of The Resistance.

I will be keeping STRONG LEADER for myself. Spies do not need to be in charge.

Thank you, Yeti, for those words of wisdom. Papa always said, "Two lies do not equal one truth."

As I don't trust Zara or AspenK, this should be no surprise.

I propose a team of myself, Sal and Bela.

If this Mission gets voted down, the next leader would be Zara. I think Zara would be relieved of duty by the Strong Leader card and miss snopes would have another try at picking a team. That could easily get rejected and then leadership would fall to me and you all now know where I stand. Just thinking out loud.

Mr. Dashing, doesn't using the STRONG LEADER card mean that the next leader will be the person on the list after the one who used the card? Or is it just a kind of skip card, and the next leader will be the one on the list following the original leader? I was pretty sure it was the former, but I'm not sure.

Yes, I'm also a bit confused about how the Strong Leader card works. Some clarification would be appreciated.

Anyhow, there's little choice for me in regard to the vote.

Can't believe we're on Mission 4 already.

Okay; thanks! :)

Sal, where *do* you stand? And yeah, if/when miss snopes uses her STRONG LEADER card at any point, the next leader (if we need one) will still be Zara.
