"Holy crap!" Lucas burst out, stunned. "For real?"
Harold's composed, slightly amused expression said everything. Lucas found himself speechless, so he simply joined Alan in clapping.
"Incredible! Harold, you hit the jackpot! Phoebe's been concealing her true identity way too skillfully, hasn't she? First, she's revealed as the miracle doctor, Buck's only student, then the Speed Queen Eden, and now she's even capable of hacking!"
