However in this scenario the duck is not just these two men; it represents their whole team. They are saying, "you will think you have caught us" (the phase we are in now), but you will be surprised

I was thinking about this possibility also. It's not just that they were captured so quickly after this statement. Three other things contribute to this theory:

1. the importance that they apparently ascribed to getting Police Chief Moose to make this statement;
2. the fact that they were caught due to their intentionally telling police that they had committed murder in Montgomery, Alabama, and due to their continuing to travel on the Interstate highway system, in a car whose appearance was widely publicized, without any attempt to hide;
3. the fact that they were captured without a fight.

Only time will tell. I hope this is just tin-foil speculation that proves to be groundless.

Good points....but I hope it's nothing, too...

Thank you for the heads up and speculation! I also hope that nabbing these guys is the end of it.
