Later Noah and Abby had a plain to bust Dusty. They would need to buy lots of food coloring. They were going to flush the food coloring down the toilet, so that the color would show up in the water and the coast people could trace it back to Dusty’s boat. There plane went successfully and Dust’s was fined ten grand. Later that day lice came back he wasn’t dead he had just gone out of town for a little bit.
