In pursuit. (Ben, Richard, Alex)
Ben leads Alex carefully further in the direction of the beach, hunting the missing Richard and Kate. Seeing no evidence of a skirmish or other danger, he whips out his CocoPhone.
With a glance at it, he remembers the long process, the months of analysis, debate, and development that went from "Hey, Ben, the computers here sure are old!" to the point at which he's holding some of the most advanced technology in the world in his hand. And yet, with the Flame gone, the CocoSystems engineer Mikhail MIA, and all of his other phone-carrying operatives save one murdered, Ben realizes that at this point, he's basically holding a glorified walkie-talkie.
He calls Richard.
