A Mysterious Surprise

Surprises are foolish things. The pleasure is not enhanced, and the inconvenience is often considerable.
-Jane Austen

Haha! I disagree. I quite like them. I also like mysteries. Let us consider a quote from everyone's favorite strawberry-blonde, surface-diving, trouble-making, Ned Nickerson-dating sleuth.

"Lipstick is not just for looking glamorous;it can be used to signal for help on windows and other surfaces." 
-Nancy Drew
