We probably have
our own satellite by now.

It took you all of two seconds to decide
to steal the Declaration of Independence.

:53:11
Yeah, but I didn't think I was gonna
personally have to tell my dad about it.

:53:14
Hey, not cool! Not cool!
:53:17
Let me go!
:53:19
OK. You're let go. Go, shoo.
:53:21
I'm not going. Not without the Declaration.
:53:24
You're not going with the Declaration.
:53:27
Yes, I am. I'm not letting it
out of my sight, so I'm going.

:53:30
Wait. You're not going with us
with the Declaration.

:53:33
- Yes, I am.
- No, you're not.

:53:37
Look, if you wanted to leave me behind,

:54:40
Because it's important?
:54:45
Because it's a name.
:54:47
OK, I got it.
When Ben Franklin was only 15 years old

:54:50
he secretly wrote 14 letters
to his brother's newspaper

:54:53
pretending to be a middle-aged widow
named Silence Dogood.

:54:57
These letters were written
by Benjamin Franklin.
