Summary
A plan took shape in Five’s mind.
It wasn’t one he particularly liked, and it would be unequivocally humiliating, but with the Commission coming and their powers shot to hell for the foreseeable future, Five couldn’t think of any other option.
Didn’t change the fact that he despised crying.
--
Five pretends to cry to get an enemy to lower their guard—emphasis on “pretend.”His siblings don’t catch on. After getting over their shock, they become unnecessarily distressed and proceed to flutter around Five like neurotic chickens.
Oh, and some people die, but that was kind of the plan all along.

Summary
Klaus flicked through a few pages without reading them, shut the book, craned his neck to look back at Ben, and mouthed, does he sleep here?
Ben shrugged helplessly. “You could ask, but….”
But Five wouldn’t answer, Klaus knew. Not yet. Convincing Five to open up took finesse. For starters, Klaus had to get him talking again, so he tossed out the first question that came to mind – “Hey, did you and Dolores break up or something?”
“Abort mission,” Ben deadpanned.

Summary
"It's going to be okay," she says, wondering if that's true. "How bad are you hurt?"
"I'm dizzy," he says, "but that's probably because I kept slamming my head on that table." He keeps laughing. "Oh, man. Oh my god. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you."
"Do you know why they took you?"
"I don't know," he groans, the laughter dying in his throat. "They were looking for Five."
"Five of what?"
