Back home, Ben and Riley visit every law enforcement building they can, the last being the FBI. Nobody believed their story that a group of professionals is out to steal the Declaration. They finally visit the National Archives where the Declaration is kept. Here they talk to the Archives’ boss, Dr, Abigail Chase (Diane Kruger) and tries to warn her of the impending theft. Abigail believes, as did the other law enforcement agencies, that Ben (who introduced himself as Paul Brown) was a lunatic and that the Declaration is theft-proof. During the visit, Ben admires Abigail’s collection of election pins and noting that she is missing one with Washington’s image. Ben later sends her the pin to complete her collection, still under the name of Brown.
