I don't know where they are taking me. Newt realized that his mom must have gotten that message, which is why she changed the security system. Newt texted Caleb: U OK? Caleb called back. "We thought they had already gotten you. We'll come by and get you; we just got to the bus." Newt asked, "Who is we?"
