250 Page Update!

After Ed returns, he finds out that his team won the soccer game. Since this card is the Ace of Spades, Ed has to dig for the Answers. The card has three names of it: Graham Greene, Morris West, and Slyvia Plath. He realizes that they are authors and he heads to the library. He thinks that he has to read all of the books, but really the street names are in the titles and the street numbers are marked of pages in the books. The first place up is Glory Road; a polynesian family lives there. They struggle to make end's meet, but they love each other and spending time at christmas. The family has old lights so Ed buys them new ones. In return, they thank him, give him a card, and give him a stone with a cross on it for good luck.
The next place is Melusso's, an Italian restaurant. Ed watches the place with The Doorman, but sees nothing. One night, Audrey comes over and tells Ed that she misses him and the way they were. The get drunk, and fall asleep in each other's arms, but she still continues to see a guy from work instead of Ed. When Ed awakes, he finds the man that ran out of his cab waiting for him. The man tells Ed to be at Melusso's at eight the following night. When he gets there, Ed finds his mom out on a date. Later, he waits for her on her doorstep, and asks her why she hates him. She says because he is like his dad, and confesses that she cheated on her husband while he was alive.
