That weekend, Justin was left in charge of Alex and Max while their parents were away. Friday night, Alex scheduled a sleep over for Max at someone else's house for that Saturday until Sunday afternoon and that would be when she would strike. Before that could happen though, she needed to find out how she would make Justin talk.
Then, as she watched Justin and Max walk in the door laughing, she realized, "Oh My Gosh, I know how to find out his weakness, I'm sure Max'll know what his weakness is!"
The next day about 2 hours before Max's sleep-over, Justin left to get some food and Alex went to work.
"Max, remember that F- that you got on you test last week, that the teacher didn't even know what to give you?" Alex asked.
"Yes, but you promised not to tell Mom and Dad!" Max exclaimed.
"And I won't as long as you tell me how I would torture Justin in to telling me something," Alex replied.
"Aww, come on! You know I can't tell you that," Max whined.
"Then Mom and Dad are gonna know about your grade," Alex bartered.
"Fine, Fine..." Max started, " Justin is inanely ticklish. His most ticklish place are his toes, followed by his belly-button, then his feet, after that his flanks, his stomach, armpits and finally his ribs."
"Good, good. Now, your not to tell, Justin anything about this, got it?" Alex asked.
"Okay," he said, walking up to his room, to pack.
Justin got back and Max left for his friends house and Alex got to work.
