The next morning Ben, Hannah, and Corey headed for the AV club’s room in the learning center to return the equipment Peter had loaned them.

They passed posters that announced Nobody’s Home was opening that night. But now all the posters had pieces of paper taped across them saying CANCELED.

Hannah kind of felt as though Club CSI had failed. If they’d figured out who was messing with the props earlier, they could have stopped the person before they ruined the set. And they still didn’t have any good leads to follow!

Peter looked up from a tangle of power cords when Club CSI walked in. “I wish people would return these cords coiled up,” he complained. “It’s really a pain having to untangle them.”

Ben felt relieved that he’d made a point of carefully coiling the power cord they’d borrowed. He handed the carrying case to Peter. Peter unzipped it and then smiled when he saw everything neatly arranged in the black leather case.

“So, did you catch the bad guy?” he asked.

“No,” Corey said. “The only thing I got out of watching our recording was a stiff neck.”

Ben explained to Peter what they’d done with the digital camera, setting it up in the theater and letting it run to try to catch the culprit.

“But when we reviewed the recording, we didn’t see anything,” Ben concluded.

“Except for the set,” Corey said. “Boy, did we see that. And see it and see it . . .”

Peter thought for a moment. Then he had an idea. “You watched the recording, but did you listen to it? Sometimes what can’t be seen can be heard.”

All three investigators shook their heads. “We had it on fast-forward most of the time, so we didn’t hear the audio,” Hannah explained.

“Then I’d suggest listening to the soundtrack,” Peter said. “Maybe you’d catch something that way.”

Corey looked discouraged. “You mean we should go through that boring recording again?”

Peter smiled. “I could help you. Got any free periods today?”

It turned out Ben and Peter had a free period in common. They agreed the two of them would come back to the AV room and see what they could find out.

“Or rather hear what we can find out,” Ben said.
