True but, my point kinda is, that they didn't do that. They could have done the whole thing during the week,  when Ai was in school and Agasa shopping or something. I agree that they wanted to keep them occupied somehow, but this is not exactly the easiest way to do that. Also, they might have called the police, most people would, actually.

Sera's action kinda like Vermouth back then.
Spoiler:
Like I've been saying, Gosho realized that the Kir and Bourbon arcs have suuuuuuuuucked, so he's going back to what made the Vermouth arc so good.  Little late, but better late than never.  Also, Sera is sexier than Vermouth.  Just sayin'.

Why are you using spoilers?
Anyone, I think Gosho merely needed some kind of catalyst to get the action going again.

I'd guess they're talking about 777 which isn't out yet.

The culprits sent the e-mail before they could call the police.

They had loads of time, they were looking at videos on Youtube.

She's so suspicious here...
Spoiler:
If there's anything we've learned about this series, it's that being suspicious in the main plot usually means we're dealing with a good guy. Look at the introductions of like... Akai, Jodie, James, Camel, Okiya (yeah, he's a good guy too--spoiler alert :-X), and now... Sera.

Unless Okiya is working with them and letting them know that "Oh btw they just said they were gonna call the police - send that e-mail now!" :o :o :o :o :o

Spoiler:
true (both JD- and Ginrei). Gosho making her so awfully suspicious almost makes me doubt that she is actually bourbon. Almost. Or it could be double-bluff. Or a triple-bluff. Or a muffin. All I know is that Okiya doesn't seem thrilled to see Sera.
@abs.: You make a compelling argument, good sir.

I assume it involves batteries among other things.

It's Gosho's way to tease his fans...but I hoped he would change a bit his habits...
