Oh, guess it's not telepathy then.

"ESP (extrasensory perception) is perception occurring independently of sight, hearing, or other sensory processes."
In other words, ESP is having a psychic ability. "ESP refers to telepathy, clairvoyance (remote viewing), precognition, and clairaudience (remote hearing)."

Thorough bred. Not really laughing at you, because my spelling's pretty horrific, but what you just said is that there are some people who are Madrigals because they went into a tunnel of whole wheat loaf. I'm not sure about all this psychic stuff as there's not really a basis for it. Born into the Madrigals and joining them seems pretty possible though, so the two types could work. What're the chances that Amy & Dan will end up either reunifying the whole family and/or becoming the head of the Madrigals? Everybody become one again seems less likely with two teams already knocked out of contention.

Sorry about that, Literacy was never my strong point. Thanks for catching that, i would rather mess here than on a thesis paper!

I just got an idea! What if there are 2 types of Madrigals? There are natural Madrigals. They're the ones who can be chosen from any branch to become Madrigals. They would have something in common: Telepathy, a more powerful version of it. If it was just because of family, the Chineese person would have known Arthur and Hope were before that. He found out. The second type... All the branches are corrupt. Bae Oh, the Tomas leadership, the only branch we don't know the leader off. Bae Oh. Cora Wizard. Isabel Kabra. They leave the branch because of the corruption. Irina, the Professor, Alistair. Then there's Madeleine. The natural Madrigals must remember her, otherwise she'll die. The Man in Black found the 39 Clues and became immortal. When people tried to destroy him he hid.

We know the Tomas leader is Ivan Kliester (something like that) And maybe the two types are right. There might be through bread madrigals (like the Cahills) or there might be, forgive the harry potter reference, mud-bloods (people who are like madrigals in everything but blood)

Though maybe Fiske is alive, and hidin from everyone. Or he could be helping one of the Branches......

Note the comments at the end of the book:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Arthur and Hope, Looking young and happy, with their arms around a gaunt, unsmiling man.

I would guess that is the same person and so ...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Surely that has to indicate that he only disappeared - he didn't die (at least not when the papers said he did).
