Joseph Keenan [at the inquest, staring into space]

Agent Carol And then what happened? Special Agent Keenan? Special Agent Keenan?

Joseph Keenan [breaks out of it]

Agent Carol What happened?

Joseph Keenan I subdued the suspect... with a head butt.

Agent Carol [amused] A head butt?

Joseph Keenan Yes sir. The suspect was standing... unnaturally close. And then the trumpet blast sounded three more times, and a fourth and a fifth. By then it was pretty clear that the Rapture wasn't going to happen, so we rounded up the remaining Five Pointers.

Agent Carol Hey, what was it? The trumpet blasts?

Joseph Keenan Pardon?

Agent Carol The trumpet blast, what was it really?

Joseph Keenan Oh, that. Well some new neighbors, these eco kids from the university with a compost collective - they've got an acre off of the ass end of the Five Point property, other side of the hill. Abin's been giving them a bunch of guff because of the smell of the compost.

Agent Hammond Was it bad?

Joseph Keenan [laughs] Gets so you could taste it. But Abin's been harassing these kids, sending some of his bigger boys over to bitch at first, maybe break a window or two. Then I guess they went old school - lots of sugar in gas tanks, burning bags of dog shit.

Agent Carol The college kids?

Joseph Keenan No, that was Cooper and his church. The eco kids never so much as called the cops. They got creative instead. They thought it'd be funny to take a page out of Revelations and get Cooper and his family's hopes up with the trumpets. So they got this big-ass rusty old siren from a fire house that just got a new one. The fire chief said they could take the damn thing so long as they carted it off, it's as big as a Mini Cooper. So they trucked this thing down to their compost collective, they put it in a barn, they hook it up to an iPod of all things. And they played these single note trumpet blasts they pulled off the Internet.

Agent Hammond And they had no idea that you were even there?

Joseph Keenan [shrugs] Just dumb luck...
