In the hospital room, the confusion was so great that the least important thing was to have the room Joan next door, the body present. Cinthya releasing their first bomb, then Claire could take him, loudly demanding to apologize for what has been said, their voices away down the hall to the roof, following both the wake of Brian. And finally, Tom's father in a trembling voice repeating the last words of Joan to an incredulous audience, that was like one who fits a surprise slap in the face. A direct blow tolifestyle. Since then, Deb had not failed to balance his head, as if seeking a foothold from which to reorganize its theories about the love of mother. Meanwhile the men who accompanied her looked at each other unable to find anything to say, a word, not comfort, but simple explanation. Emmet

"I take care, Claire. Right now I talk to the hospital and the funeral and notice to your home to your family come to you company. I deal with, "he repeated as he left the room.
- How is Brian? Michael asked, unsure whether to go to Cinthya or Claire.
"Imagine," said Cinthya with a snort, while Claire shrugged his shoulders slightly, lookingpenalty.
"Yeah, sure, 'said Emmet-can we help? Where? You may need something. I ... "she looked around, surprised at the lack of advertising and aplatanado attitude of everyone present.
"You know as Ted said as he thought about how difficult it would be to offer comfort to his friend, always trying to walk alone. Never asking anything to anyone.
"Well ... Justin asked Emmet marriage, tried to joke.
"Marriage? -Was startled & ocute, one! I have to go to New York! "Brian turned to his two partners desperate" Justin has been kidnapped!
Slim quietly leading the way to his house when he got the call Geli. His tone was peremptory, to the extent that they had not exchanged any of those inconveniences that often. The matter was too serious and he had understood immediately.
"We have identified the security officer. Hab-Geliló without preamble is Stuart West, the first husband of the Van Rykett. He was admitted to the asylum of Dr. Gregory Olson. We do not know why, but let him out, though without discharge. What I gave was a gun. And we do not know why, but West has kidnapped Justin Taylor in his apartment.
- I'm over there! Slim replied taking the lights to put on the roof.
Powell intervened, putting the phone.
- Detective Slim?'m Desmond Powell, counsel for Mr. Taylor. Do not waste time coming here.oacute; n.
"Because we need someone with authority to intervene before it is too late. We believe he is still alive, because if West would have killed him had not bothered to take it. But we do not know where you have been. The only one who would know is Dr. Olson, who has known West and his mental processes, and is even likely to be his accomplice. But we have no way to pressure.
- What I do? -Slim volvíaa feel cornered, did not like others to decide what to do, "Powell, I remember that I have no evidence of the involvement of Dr. Olson in the murder of Ms. Vanlip;
- Do you recognize?
"Undoubtedly. In addition, he looks perfectly at surveillance tapes. Is West, you can check.
"No need. Geli even be able to invent something that complicated. But if you hate why not kill him? What's kidnap?
- How do I know? I am West, yo! I'm not inside your head! "Powell became impatient" But Olson just might. Slim
thought about it.
"Okay.I'll try. I doubt if I say something, but if he gets nervous maybe try to contact West, as you mentioned.
Thanks.
"No thank me. Look for me a job if it goes wrong, "growled Slim while hanging to try to contact his assistant. He hated the boy involved in a mess like the one provided, but the cops always have to go in pairs like socks. And if you wanted to impress that shrink was thinking it was the police who kept track. Officially.

- Why did not you warn us? There is a madman who hates Justin loose and you do not you let us know! May
intervened. I would love to see Daphne's face broke his counsel, but Justice Powell did not deserve it. At least not this time.
"None of us knew anything until recently. As we came over here called us and told us that they had extended the picture and what Olson had given West was a gun. And the attack on the same box ... you saw how I responded to youthe detectives, "And you? "We'll
some questions to the neighbors around here ... Maybe someone has seen something.
"Well. Inform me of anything. I wish I could tell something hopeful Mr. Kinney when you call. He said that coming here, but airports across the east coast are closed. As soon as you realize you can not come, call. Sure.
Desmond left the apartment with Daphne, who clung to his arm, overtaken by events.
- Have you noticed in the picture? Geli asked as they left the apartment and cwandering locked.
"Yes, a portrait of Mr. Kinney very well painted. That Taylor is very talented. It is a very good portrait.
And sad. This expression ... As if he had lost everything ...
"Yes ..." May shook her head vigorously Geli Well, more reason to find him. So you can paint another picture much more cheerful. Come. I take care to examine the neighbors of this plant up and you down.
"Okay ... wait a minute ... You've told the plants!

surprised by Brian's behavior. Not approached him to untie or to hug and comfort him. Not even looked at him with affection, but coldly, with contemptuous irritation, as he contemplates a dog poop just to tread.
- Ah! So giving orders again ... sunshine. Brian said, and the nickname sounded like an insult, "Get me out of here! Untie me! ... "He sarcastically mimicked
- Bri? ... & Ndash, Justin stammered amazed by the attitude of the dark.
-always what you want, what you need. And I there like an idiot, Givin. It is for all you interested. When you give me what I want? Huh? When?
"But ... but ... are you crazy? I've been kidnapped, Brian! At gunpoint! And he has done can return at any moment to kill me ... I do not have time to talk now untie me dammit!
- The urgent need is not always maand he let go.
- Why you left, Justin? She complained rather than asked, "Why Brian?
"I just wanted to collect some things from my apartment. No ... I did not leave, would return to the hotel. "Justin did not understand anything,"
"I went home from Michael, Justin.

"Yes, then of course it is not surprising that fail to when I mean, after all you've gone so many times ...
- "Which is it now? Caught syphilis and Brandon to bet with that you Would you sell it before him, ten guys in a list. What the fuck you expect?
- Me? What did I expect? -Brian Justin leaned over his face bringing you what the fuck you expect, Justin? I just did what I had always done, just as had been doing since we met, what you said you accepted.

"Then no, now! Not change the subject, blond. You know very well why not want to talk about it and try to avoid it.
"I do not know anything ...
- Of course you do! Know that I had cut an egg and so it was almost the end of the world. You know I spent months unable to fuck, telling myself that it was useless,and at last I could stay home and be a happy marriage, like Michael and Ben, playing house, a couple dinners at family gatherings ...
