"The Hootish..." he points at the screen, "You know?"

He looks at Ricardo and then Cory, "You don't know about the Hootish? 
It's a religious sect, or cult, depending on who you ask. There are some 
on Argent, out near where I grew up. Never caused any body any trouble, 
so my folks always said live and let live."

"Not surprising to see some here." he says, "I think the Hooters are 
centered somewhere down the main...Serbia I think."

"Now, what about is there about that family that connects them to this 
broughaha?" Arvitis says pointing at the screen.
