When people go to wash up for dinner this evening, they run into Ollie and Jeanne, having just washed and on their way to the kitchen door. They both look cheerful. It is dark, but as they pass the puddles of light from the kerosene lamp at the water pump, an observant person might notice that Jeanne, having just finished work in the gardens, has a white streak down her back, and Ollie, looking like a boy who doesn't quite have the patience for washing up, has hair that looks dusty. They are almost inside when Minnie comes striding up to the pump looking important. "Someone is in trouble. Someone has painted a huge cross on the door!" Commotion ensues.
<#ann: Celeste is going to give the siblings a suspicious look, then run to the door to see for herself. Is it just a regular cross? I'm too lazy to google, is this particular day of religious significance? #>
<#bill: Cole turns to Minnie and tries to subtly step in front of Jeanne. "Well, you'd better go find Miss Lizzy then, Minnie. Or else they're liable to think you did it..."
Minnie's eyes go wide, "But it wasn't me!"
Cole shrugs, "Maybe not, but you were the only one of us who was all alone. If I was you, I'd want to be the one to tell Miss Lizzy first. She was assisting Mrs. Cromwell in Room 214 last I saw her." Note: Cole is misdirecting her. Miss Lizzy had helped earlier in the day, but he knows she's long gone now. He knows she has gone back to her own room to clean up/change for the evening meal. Nora is doing the same.
Minnie nods her head fiercely and spins on her heels. She rushes inside. As soon as she turns her back Cole looks at Jeanne and points to his own back mouthing to her, "Your back."#>
