Riddle 029: Where is the Father?
{First, a public phone call, filtered from drones.]
Hello again, Mayfield. I've been noticing plenty of new faces around town as of late. Plenty of people with plenty of questions.
Every question has an answer, friends---I can guarantee you that. And I, Edward Nigma, can help you find all of these answers. And more. Now, I'm sure I can already predict the next question that's on your minds right now. "What's the catch?" Answer: I I'll be needing your help with a little summer project of mine. Here's your first clue as to what it might be.
“I cannot be seen and I weigh nothing,
But when put into a barrel, I make it lighter.”
What am I?
[It's just after finishing up with this little phone call that he gets his first good look at the calendar. Father's Day. Not exactly Edward's favorite day by any means, given his own relationship with his old man. Needless to say, his mood's been a little bit soured.
Throughout the rest of this lovely day, you're likely to run into the Riddler...
A: In the Backyard of 726 Anderson, sketching something out into a notebook.
B: Out for a drive in the Riddler-Mobile, to try and relax.
C: At Jonathan's Tools, loading up plenty of tools and building supplies into the back of his car.
Wherever he goes, he'll likely be sulking. Cheer him up? Help him out? He's all yours, ladies.]

I've always been fascinated with puzzles and riddles, you know. Since I was around your age, really.

You should ask the Professor about puzzles and riddles, when he gets here of course. He knows way more then I do!

But uh, until he gets here you wouldn't mind sharing a few of those puzzles, would you?
