* ExplainExplainOhCrap: Kwame questions Mr. Nei about who released the cesium minutes ago. He insists he didn't do it as he never found the other capsule. Mr. Nei then realizes in horror that the only ones who could've done it are Su and Song since they always trespass on his scrapyard to take things.
