"I'll be as politic as I can. If you have a locker in this building numbered 7021, then the contents belong to our friend Luke. That's all we're here for and that's all we intend to take."

Alex crossed his arms. "I think he's still mad about the door, Patti. Dangerous. That's how TV ghosts are made. They're called grudges for a reason." He took a bite out of his second candy bar. It had peanuts.

Grodin-alike- "Huh. Well... I suppose I can't stop you." He stood there with hands in his pockets, dressed like civilization had never stopped. Sandy tentatively stepped around him, followed by Sonya.
As Patti and Alex walked by, he started strolling alongside them. Grodin-alike- "So... how does life find you today, madam?"

She offered him a half-smile. "I've seen better days, but I'm well fed and I've got good friends to watch my back. S'better than most folks have these days, I expect. How about you? This doesn't seem like the best place to be holed up. How do you get supplies, food?"

Grodin-alike- "Holed up? I just like to visit. I'm not homeless."

"Visiting? Friends? Supplies? Sightseeing?"

Grodin-alike- "I just smoke a lacy and pretend I'm waiting to go somewhere far away."

"Then I take it the building is mostly secured?" Grodin-alike- "Yeah, those Chinese fellows seemed like they had a good handle on things. Unused floors are sealed off and the windows are all boarded. My apartment is too dark now." "How long have you been visiting?" Grodin-alike- "Eh, a week. Two?" "Have you thought about gassing up one of the buses and plowing your way out of town?"

Grodin-alike- "No."

They continued walking towards wherever the lockers were. "Fair enough. What've you guys been eating? We had a goose dinner last night. I think we've plowed through the leftovers already, but you're welcome to come around and visit if you ever feel like it. We've got enough power to run iPods and boom boxes off and on, so there's music."

Grodin-alike- "Do you have puppies and ponies and candy floss too?" The place was dim and eerie, with a mild death stench and a few random rats and flies. Signs of violence were left at sporadic intervals - chairs knocked over, blood on a counter.
They reached the lockers and started looking. At first it didn't look like the numbering scheme could include the number in question, but then they found another section that worked. Sandy- "I know you're hot to use the crowbar, but I'm going to try to pick it first. I could use the practice." Sonya turned a flashlight on the locker and Sandy got to work.

"I have faith in you, Sandy. Haha. You anarchists. Jesus was an anarchist." Alex sat against the wall directly across from the lockers. "Mister, my floss is mint-flavored, we have puppies, and I'm working on the ponies. But. But they don't eat carrots. Did you know that?" Grodin- "Hm. You're quite a scholar."
He closed his eyes. "Sleepy. It's my head. Wake me up for le graal." Alex slid to the floor and dozed.

Sonya- "Um, Patti, is Alexa mm, on a drug?"
Grodin-alike- "I heard that."

Patti decided to stop being polite to the Grodin-alike and chose to ignore all future statements. "I think not. Last night was pretty crazy and I don't think he let himself sleep much when he got home. Probably got up early to lift too. Another night's sleep should be enough to fully revive him." Sonya- "Good, good."
Patti stifled her own yawn. She watched with mild interest as Sandy went to work on the lock.

Alex cracked open one eye. "Mmmhmm. Not really feeling myself right now. Sorry about that."
