Our guess on 'super' friends: Susan Metzger and Tim LaPoint.

And, we are wondering who is squawking about whom? Theodore Wasky, the SAIC at the Cleveland FBI office, seemed to be suggesting that it's Let's Make A Deal time:

“I would encourage anyone with information to get on the train.

“Either you’re on the train or you are on the tracks, and the train is coming down those tracks,” Mr. Wasky said.

As Jimmy M. used to sing, "The time for hesitations through."
