Episode 3.01 part 2

The next day, late morning

The hearing this morning was barely more than a formality. Bail granted at the sum of $100,000. For some people that would result in a delay before release, but Levinson had the money ready and the whole procedure took no time at all. I do appreciate hard work.

Jenkins greets me as I leave the courthouse, and we climb into the car.

"The apartment, Granger," I say, and the car glides away.

"Any messages?" I ask. He's not a messenger, of course, but these are exceptional circumstances.

"Mrs Shairan called," he says, and I suppose I'll have to speak to her soon and let her know what happened. "Alec said the clean up team have been in."

"...What?"

"I don't know any more about it, sir. I assumed you knew."

What the hell?

The elevator won't move quickly enough for me today.

"Wait here," I say curtly to Jenkins. "Let no one in." I hope Tez is here. I feel like I could scratch my skin off with the need to see that he is alright.
