Ell : It's been going on for maybe a month. Each time I catch the girls they are gone fired on the spot . And they don't get back in. Rudy , what about Mercedes? Do you think she could get it together and do this? I've been worried about her . Not much I can do though.

Rudy: I'll talk to her, and I'll be spending some more time at the office... Checking things out. Ready to eat?

Ell : Just one more thing . You should know I'm living at the office apartment. If your going to be at the office more you should be aware that if there are lights on the next floor up , it's me. So don't worry about it.

Rudy: What about Evan?

ell: I looked Rudy in the eyes for the first time that night and said Even who
and we ate our dinner.
