You interpreted it correctly! It has just been so many letters lately that I felt like it might've be confusing πŸ˜…

Alex hands over a letter to Robin. Robin squints at Alex, but has a small smile to not look too sceptical.

When the thief, Robin Banks, is close enough, Alex comes out of her hiding place and walks up to Robin. Robin smiles confusedly.

Alex hides behind the corner of the brick and cement wall that surrounds the Calientes' lot, and she waits for the thief to come closer.

Aerial view of Skyward Palms, Oasis Springs, with the Calientes' house in the middle of the picture. The pavement in front of the Calientes is slightly crooked, so that Alex, who's just walking by Calientes' neighbours on the right in the picture, and the thief walking towards the Calientes' house in the left of the picture, can't see each other.

The thief is sneaking on the pavement towards the Calientes' house. She's wearing a black and white, striped, long-sleeved shirt, black trousers, a black beanie, and a black face mask.

Alex: You know, you didn't need to scare us with Sierra.

Watcher: I had no hand in that game. She came over to you all on her own.

Alex: In her uniform? In the middle of the night?

Watcher: Yes! Sims do that.

In Chapter 43: (Re)Connecting, Part 9, the woman was called by W.H. I, which stands for Watcher's Helper I. Seeing her whole face, except for the parts that are covered by the mask, those who knows her can probably tell that she's Alex Moyer. Alex has a sceptical look on her face.

Watcher's Helper I, Alex: Are you sure she's here?

Watcher: Of course! I know she's in this neighbourhood, I just don't know where.

The woman who visited Ahriman to give him a letter in Chapter 43: (Re)Connecting, post 69-78, is walking down a sidewalk in Skyward Palms, Oasis Springs. She's the woman who was described as having dark brown hair and a light skin tone, wearing a long, brown dress and a black mask with golden pattern that forms an eye shape on her forehead. She's wearing the same dress and mask in this scene.

Interesting hypothesis πŸ‘€ Emily (not Alex) was the one who didn't answer the texts from Summer and Travis, if that's what you meant?

While this mini-arc is (almost) finished (Liberty gave a little clue about the very last scene that's yet to come), we'll get to see Emit and this Liberty (and Eric, who Liberty mentioned earlier, with his family) at some point in the future 😌

Thank you ☺️ I wanted her to look a little older than main-timeline-Liberty and I wanted her style to look more futuristic and playful 😊

Emit: By the way, main-timeline-you and Travis are really sharp.

Liberty: Did you doubt that? I picked the best spous𝘦𝘴.

Emit: Oh, right, Summer is of course smart too.

Liberty: Nice save.

Emit: She actually helped us a lot.

Liberty: See? Being good at science isn't the only way to be smart.

Liberty holds up her phone and smiles at Emit.

Emit: Main-timeline-you said that she'd received a letter from them. They apologised, but they didn't say that they won't do it again, so we better track them down, but we need more data.

Liberty: Maybe there's an easier solution. I'll ask main-timeline-Alex if she can pull some strings.
