Jackson meets with Charlie at his house to review the plan. Charlie thinks the plan is genius but has serious doubts they can pull it off successfully. His biggest concern is Samuel’s map of the main office. Charlie suggests reporting Dr. Kelsey to the superintendent, but Jackson reminds him that they have no solid proof of the fraud. Samuel is concerned about the tight timeline, but Jackson assured him they can succeed, barring any obstacles. Charlie and Jackson know their success depends on assembling a crack crew, so they begin making a list of potential members. Hashemi will be their tech guy and Bradley will serve as the insider source. Charlie suggests Megan instead of Hashemi, but Jackson reminds him of Rule Number Nine, “Loose lips sink ships” (59) and assures him he trusts Hashemi can work well under pressure. They choose Victor Cho from the Chess Team as their bankroll since he appears to have an unlimited cash flow source in his parents. Charlie still thinks Jackson’s plan is outrageous, but he agrees to join saying, “I’m your right-hand man” (61).
