The following is a log from a storyline taking place in the investigation of several murders perpetrated by one Enrico Gutierrez, aka Cancer, at Night City General Hostpital, where he was taken by TTI following being shot at the CyberPunk Cafe by Delorean Davis. In charge of the investigation is Homocide Detective Donnavin Carlyle. Here Carlyle arrives at the scene of the crime and must overcome the incompetence of the victims and the NCPD in order to gain some insight into this crime. Text in brackets or double parentheses is out of character.

 

Carlyle: Baron Dinko

Nurse Goodiebreast/Doctor Java/Officer Streetbeat: Lyssa

Nurse Tappin/Officer Morgan: Cory

 

Carlyle: ((Scene is this: in one of the rooms, an unidentified man in cryo was patched up with cybernetics, then let out of cryo, where he proceeded to kill all staff present. 4 deaths, one doctor, one nurse, two orderlies))

Carlyle 's AV comes roaring out of the sky, settling to a halt in front of the hospital. A few police squad cars are scattered around the entrance.

Nurse Goodiebreast sits shaking and crying at one of the nurses stations

Carlyle steps out of the AV, looking quite a mess with his blood-stained coat, and walks to the entrance, going inside. He walks to the front desk and leans over it. To the evil person behind desk: "Excuse me?"

Carlyle talks to Nurse Goodiebreast, then. heheh.

Carlyle: Excuse me, miss?

Nurse Goodiebreast doesn't look evil....she looks like she's about to have a nervous breakdown

Nurse Goodiebreast: the ER is closed...you'll have to go to the Urgent Care clinic

Carlyle flips his wallet out, showing her the badge. "Could you point me to the scene of the crime?"

Nurse Goodiebreast starts bawling and throws her head into her hands

Nurse Goodiebreast: it's...it's....HORRIBLE!

Carlyle sighs, then nods. "Yes, I'm sure it is... now where is it?"

Nurse Goodiebreast turns her head away and points to the other side with a shaky hand, her breasts heaving dramatically as only a nurse's can do

Nurse Tappin: [okay, Lyssa.. thank you for the breast info :P]

Carlyle nods his thanks and turns, walking towards the direction she pointed, slipping his Lennon shades on. Mr. Cool. :)

Nurse Tappin steps out of the room, looking at Carlyle...

Nurse Tappin: sir. you have to leave.. this area is closed off...

Carlyle holds the badge up. "Detective Donnavin Carlyle."

Nurse Tappin: Ohhh.. Sorry...

Nurse Tappin smiles a bit, obviously shaken

Carlyle: Perfectly all right. **Slips the wallet back in his pocket and steps by him, looking into the room.** All right, what do we have?

Nurse Tappin steps in.. "4 dead.. 2 orderlies, a doctor, and a nurse..."

Carlyle looks around the scene "Causes of death?"

Nurse Tappin: I dunno.. I just came in to check up on a patient... and *motions*

Carlyle: Hmm...

Doctor Java walks in, covered in multiple layers of blood

Doctor Java: what the hell is going on here, nurse? who the fuck is this loser? I ordered the ER closed!

Nurse Tappin: Umm.. Doctor.. He's with the NCPD..

Doctor Java: and get me some damn coffee! I've been on my feet 36 hrs

Nurse Tappin nods and goes off to get said coffee...

Doctor Java: NCPD? about fuckin time...where the hell you been? we try to save lives here, bud, not watch people die around us!

Nurse Tappin comes back with a cup of coffee..

Doctor Java takes the coffee and sips it, then spits it on the floor

Doctor Java: where's my sugar? dammit, how many times I gotta tell you two sugars!

Nurse Tappin delicately escorts the doctor out before Carlyle can add him to the list of vicitms.

Carlyle enters the room and calls out to the cops, "All right, what do we got here?"

Carlyle: Damn bastards, taking up my dinner break...

Carlyle peers around the room, amazed at the nothingness being accomplished.

Officer Morgan stands around, smoking a cigarette... looking kind of bored.

Officer StreetBeat looks up, sipping tepid coffee

Officer StreetBeat: um, dead guys, sir?

Carlyle: Ah, this brings back memories. A buncha street cops sitting around at a murder scene, getting nothing accomplished. Brings a tear to my eye. *sniff* :P

Officer StreetBeat: well, ain't like they're gonna walk away, issit?

Officer StreetBeat spills some of his coffee on his shirt and curses

Carlyle sighs and takes out the same stupid recorder, walking to one body and yanking the sheet off of him.

Officer Morgan kneels down beside Carlyle..

Carlyle pushes record and speaks into it, saying the whole thing about several scalpels artfully placed around the frontal lobe.

Officer Morgan: you know.. I can tell you one thing.. all four of them are dead... real dead.

Officer StreetBeat nods in complete agreement

Carlyle: You'll make captain in no time, smart guy.

Officer Morgan: Yeah? you think so?

Officer Morgan: Maybe I'll make Lieutenant in a coupleweeks then, huh?

Carlyle steps over the body and continues to the next body, kneeling down beside it.

Officer StreetBeat: second thing ta tell ya is, I got dibbs on that nurse out front....

Carlyle: Victim two, standard hypodemic injector device shoved into and up the larynx.

Carlyle reaches out and plucks the cartridge from the hypo, studying it.

Officer StreetBeat: um, that's evidence ya got there....

Carlyle: Hypo was armed with adrenaline... heh. Poor guy died in a rush. Badda-bing.

Officer Morgan: Ummm.. you tryin' ta be a comedian or sumthin'?

Carlyle slides the cartridge back into place and gives the cops irritated looks, then continues to the third body.

Carlyle: You tryin' ta be a cop or somethin'?

Officer Morgan: Yeah... figured I was doin' pretty good

Officer StreetBeat: s'what makes good detectives, ya know that, Morgan? they know all da punchlines....

Officer Morgan grins

Carlyle: That and the common sense to do their damn job.

Officer Morgan: Ohhh...

Officer Morgan nods

Officer StreetBeat leans back against a gurney and sips his tepid coffee, nodding

Officer Morgan finishes his cigarette and absently flicks it into a pile of mush that just MIGHT be brains

Officer StreetBeat: hey...that's evidence....

Carlyle looks down at the third body and raises the recorder to his lips. "Third victim, death by severe cranial trauma, enough to split the head into two halves... Victim's gray matter is spread across the floor, Officer Morgan is flicking ashes in them."

Officer Morgan blinks and goes to get the cigarette out, shaking off the brains.. "Hey.. these are brains.. just thought the looked like 'em.. but they look just like the ones in those movies, ya know?"

Officer StreetBeat: hey, Morgan, ya want a donut?

Officer StreetBeat: great brain food

Officer Morgan grins and grabs a donut...

Officer StreetBeat cracks up in his coffee and curses as some comes out his nose

Officer Morgan: that's a good one

Carlyle: Ahem. Footprints in said gray matter, should run a check on them.

Officer Morgan: maybe you should be a detective too...

Carlyle looks at the cop, watching him sneeze java.

Officer StreetBeat: yeah? ya think?

Officer Morgan: Yeah.. you got my vote..

Officer StreetBeat: hey, that's cool...maybe I can get a job in vice, go an' shake down some joygirls, huh?

Carlyle: As soon as you learn that breathing and drinking aren't done at the same time, you've got mine too.

Officer Morgan smirks

Officer StreetBeat wipes his face and blinks at Carlyle

Carlyle walks to the fourth body and looks down at it, furrowing his brow.

Officer StreetBeat: he's dead too

Officer StreetBeat smiles helpfully

Officer Morgan: ['and this body has suffered traumatic sodomy']

Officer StreetBeat: [rofl]

Officer Morgan: ['with what looks like a chair']

Carlyle: Hm. Fourth victim, apparently without a throat. Did you find a throat anywhere, guys?

Officer Morgan blinks.. "Throat...?"

Officer StreetBeat looks around himself, picking up his feet and looking at his soles

Officer Morgan looks like he's gonna puke..

Carlyle: You know, goes in your neck, you breathe from it?

Officer Morgan: ummm....

Carlyle sighs, then, on a hunch, goes to the trash can, peering in.

Carlyle: Get me some gloves.

Officer Morgan: Umm.. Detective... you sure it was a throat?

Carlyle looks at officer Officer Morgan.

Officer StreetBeat: whassa matter, Officer Morgan, that donut taste a little fleshy?

Officer Morgan: prolly looked like... ummm... *gets sick* like a messy jelly eclair...

Officer StreetBeat looks around without moving for gloves

Officer StreetBeat: ewwwwwwww.... Morgan, that's why you always go for the chocolate sprinkles....

Carlyle sighs, then says into the recorder, "Officer Morgan has ingested part of the victim, stomach pump found to be an excellent idea."

Officer Morgan simply turns and starts retching right there...

Officer StreetBeat: ah, forget the stomach pump...that's evidence....

Officer Morgan wipes his mouth and looks kinda green...

Officer Morgan: want me to move that for you, detective?

Carlyle: Scratch that. Officer Morgan has kindly decided to regurgitate the evidence.

Carlyle: Wipe off some of the bile and put it in a plastic bag.

Officer Morgan: Ummm.. I was gonna move it, that's all...

Officer Morgan blinks at it

Officer Morgan: and there's a few pieces of it...

Carlyle: Shut up and do it, or the chief'll hear counts of cannibalism.

Officer Morgan sighs and goes about doing as he's told.....

Officer StreetBeat stands there, sipping his coffee, having not budged from his spot by the gurney since about 4 pm

Carlyle: Let me guess, you two became cops for the thrill of gunning down some pedestrians?

Officer Morgan looks at Carlyle

Officer Morgan: I kinda like using a night club, myself...

Officer StreetBeat: actually, it's the chicks...

Officer Morgan: that too.

Carlyle: Uh huh. And how many women have you gotten from the job so far?

Officer Morgan grins and tosses Carlyle the evidence bag, slick with bile..

Officer StreetBeat thinks, ponderance crawling across his face slowly

Carlyle catches it, holding it at arm's length.

Officer StreetBeat: three, but one of em turned out to be a guy

Carlyle: Cripes, what the fuck have you been eating?

Officer Morgan: ummm... not much lately.. some donuts and a throat..?

Carlyle tosses it onto a counter.

Officer StreetBeat: shoulda stayed away from that creampuff...those never look pretty the second trip

Officer Morgan flicks a glob of bile at Officer StreetBeat.. "Yeah.. I kinda figured that"

Carlyle sighs, then walks to the cryo-chamber in the middle of the room, its door hanging open. Blood spattered across the frosty glass.

Officer StreetBeat spends the time while it's flying at him trying to decide if it's worth moving and never gets the chance, catchin it in the face

Officer Morgan wipes his hands on one of the orderlies' clothes...

Officer StreetBeat: oh man!

Officer StreetBeat wipes his face off and then looks at his hand

Officer StreetBeat: ewwwwww......

Officer Morgan kinda cops a feel on the chick's corpse... then realizes how bad he looks and stops...

Carlyle looks at Officer Morgan. "Necrophile."

Officer StreetBeat: necrohuh?

Officer StreetBeat: hey, Morgan, she hot?

Carlyle sighs, then studies the cryo, looking down at the dead doctor next to it,

Officer Morgan grins at Officer StreetBeat.. "Kinda cold.. but she's built"

Officer StreetBeat: whoohoo!

Carlyle: Murderer was let out of cryo, then injected with adrenaline to wake him back up... Hypo was grabbed from doctor's hand and shoved into and up throat.

Officer StreetBeat: murderer? isn't it presumed murderer?

Carlyle: Carnage proceeded from there.

Officer Morgan: Yeah. smartass

Carlyle blinks, then looks at the cop.

Officer Morgan: and these are presumed corpses

Officer StreetBeat: I mean...it coulda been accidental, ya know...or mass suicide, an da guy was just here coincidentally

Officer Morgan: so I can presumably fondle the busty nurse and only be presumed a necro

Officer Morgan smirks

Carlyle: You're both fucked in the heads.

Officer StreetBeat: hey, the live one out front is mine, Morgan

Carlyle: Er, presumably fucked in the head. Sorry.

Officer Morgan: Only if you get to her first...

Carlyle follows the bodies to the shattered window, peering outside.

Carlyle: Goody...

Officer StreetBeat blinks at Carlyle

Officer Morgan: guess the window was only presumably broken?

Carlyle turns and walks to the door, taking the registry from the... whatever it is, that cup-thingie. He looks over it.

Officer StreetBeat: could happen..we may just be imaginin it....

Officer Morgan waves his arm through the window

Officer Morgan: nope

Officer Morgan: it's not there

Officer Morgan: it's broken.... but maybe it's just stress.

Officer StreetBeat: ah, but how do you know your arm is there?

Carlyle: Room was registered to one Enrico Guiterrez...

Officer StreetBeat looks over at Carlyle

Officer StreetBeat: how you know that?

Carlyle looks at the cops plainly.

Carlyle: I can read.

Officer Morgan walks over to Officer StreetBeat and whams him upside the head

Officer Morgan: you tell me

Officer Morgan: is my arm there?

Officer Morgan grins

Officer StreetBeat: hey! ow! look, ya made me spill my coffee...

Carlyle chuckles.

Officer Morgan glances at Carlyle

Officer Morgan: you think that one's good enough to make me a detective too?

Carlyle: All right... Mr. Guiterrez suffered gunshot wounds that took off half his head, stopping just sort of entering his gray matter...

Officer StreetBeat: really? how ya know that?

Carlyle: It's called a hospital printout, smart guy.

Carlyle: Fuckin' mental case...

Officer Morgan: Hey.. How you know your coffee really spilt

Officer Morgan smirks and gets away....

Officer StreetBeat ponders smacking Officer Morgan but realizes Officer Morgan has the car keys and would probably strand him

Officer StreetBeat: wow...printout...Morgan, did you look at the printout?

Officer Morgan: ummm... Print out?

Officer Morgan: No.. but there was a shortage of toilet paper in the john... used one of them for makeshift...

Officer StreetBeat: hey, that's evidence....

Carlyle: *ahem* Half of his face was reconstructed using heavy-duty cybernetics... Was brought out of cryo, only to be put under again when he requested more surgery, replacing his arms with cyberarms.

Carlyle: Mr. Guiterrez apparently ran up a bill of several thousand eddies.

Carlyle: Then killed everyone when let out of cryo and took off.

Officer StreetBeat: sheeze, so ya think he's gonna have ta pay his bill?

Officer Morgan: Umm.. no

Carlyle: I'm sure the justice department will add that in his sentencing when I catch him.

Carlyle: Like I don't have enough to do.

Officer Morgan: you sure you gonna catch him, detective?

Carlyle returns the prinout to its holder.

Officer Morgan: or is that like.. lots of hype?

Carlyle: I always get my man. I'm the fuckin' Mounties, Morgan.

Officer Morgan: ohh.. the mounties? weren't they gay?

Carlyle: Wanna find out?

Officer Morgan mutters to Officer StreetBeat.. "No wonder he wasn't intersted in the nurse"

Officer Morgan: Ummm.. I'm not into sodomy, detective...

Carlyle turns off the recorder and returns it to his pocket.

Carlyle: Maybe you should move out of your parent's house, then.

Officer Morgan blinks...

Officer Morgan: I don't got a house....

Officer Morgan: You got a house?

Officer StreetBeat: hey, his mom's got herself some big ol...*glances at Officer Morgan and stops, his hands over his chest*

Officer Morgan looks at Officer StreetBeat

Officer StreetBeat: nope...no house....maybe when we make detective....

Officer Morgan nods...

Officer Morgan: Guess we stay here?

Carlyle walks out of the room to have a chat with the busty nurse.

Officer StreetBeat shrugs and goes back to what's left of his coffee

Carlyle walks to the nurse's bay, or whatever, and knocks on the windowpane.

Officer Morgan lights another cigarette, using a convenient fragment of skull as an ashtray...

Nurse Goodiebreast jumps and looks up with a scream

Carlyle: ((poor Night City, with these guys on call.))

Carlyle looks at her plainly.

Officer Morgan: [ever wonder why crime runs rampant?]

Carlyle: Miss, I'm going to have to talk to you about the crime.

Nurse Goodiebreast: the...the crime? *starts crying again*

Officer Morgan: [sure, you just want to get into her uniform Dinko :P]

Carlyle: ((point being?)) :P

Nurse Goodiebreast has barely enough room in her uniform for that chest...indeed, it's stretched to the limit

Carlyle steps into the bay, putting a hand on her shoulder, patting gently, peering down at that uniform... like he could avoid it if he tried.

Nurse Goodiebreast trembles which creates a minor seismic event

Nurse Goodiebreast: oh, detective, it was so...so...HORRIBLE!

Carlyle: Yes, yes, I know it was... but you need to tell me some things, so I can catch the guy who did it...

Nurse Goodiebreast: oh oh oh...he was so HUGE, and all the blood...and and *sobs again*

Carlyle pats her on the shoulder and sighs softly.

Carlyle: Okay... He was huge... Can you tell me anything about him?

Nurse Goodiebreast: he had this face...it was....oh, he was so horrid...it was like something you see in a horror movie!

Carlyle: Lots of cybernetics, right? Could you tell what color his skin was?

Nurse Goodiebreast: bloody

Carlyle: uh huh. Could you tell if he was white? Black? Hispanic?

Nurse Goodiebreast: all red....it was so horrible...I..I...*breaks down again, heaving and jiggling quite a bit*

Carlyle blinks rapidly. Cripes, fuckin' earthquake.

Nurse Goodiebreast gets her breath back with an inhale that just about threatens to split the uniform

Nurse Goodiebreast: I think he was white, but he was so bloody I can't be sure....

Carlyle: Well, the guy's reported name was Enrico Guiterrez... Can you tell if that could have been his real name?

Nurse Goodiebreast blinks helpfully, wiping at the streaks of mascara on her face

Nurse Goodiebreast: it might have been, but I'm not sure...we don't always expect names to match the records...

Carlyle: You didn't get a look at his face before?

Nurse Goodiebreast: there really wasn't much of a face to look at before...

Carlyle: Can you tell me where he was brought in from?

Nurse Goodiebreast points to the door helpfully

Carlyle looks at her plainly, then purses his lips. "Can I find out where TTI brought him in from?"

Nurse Goodiebreast: oh! that....

Nurse Goodiebreast punches up the TTI report on her dataterm

Nurse Goodiebreast: from downtown..the CyberPunk Cafe

Carlyle: Hmm...

Carlyle: Goody, three cases surrounding one place. Can my job get any easier?

Nurse Goodiebreast blinks up at Carlyle

Nurse Goodiebreast: can it?

Carlyle: Yeah, I could be able to call down the wrath of God on this patchwork psycho. That'd be nice.

Nurse Goodiebreast gasps

Nurse Goodiebreast: you can do that?

Officer Morgan wanders out and stops at that.. "Whoa.. you sayin' you're Jesus?"

Officer Morgan grins

Carlyle gives her another plain look.

Officer Morgan wanders over to pour himself some coffee.. "so.. like.. can ya make this some good wine for me, Detective Jesus? I mean.. the coffee's kinda bitter.."

Carlyle waves the officer away.

Carlyle: Yeah, well, thou dost get what thee deserve. Now get thee gone, wastrel.

Officer Morgan blinks

Officer Morgan: Huh?

Officer Morgan: You're talking Greek, detective.

Carlyle looks at Officer Morgan plainly.

Carlyle: See? Only the son of God would know Greek in this day and age.

Nurse Goodiebreast blinks at the man in uniform

Nurse Goodiebreast: do you want some sugar?

Officer Morgan blinks at the nurse and drools a bit then blinks and nods.. "Sure.. coffee and sugar are good.. very good.."

Nurse Goodiebreast grins and stands up, going over to a cupboard and bending over to get the sugar, giving a tantalizing view of other aspects that may have been overlooked due to her chest

Officer Morgan drools some more then looks at Carlyle

Officer Morgan: so... umm.. what's Jesus doing as a detective?

Carlyle: Doing the job the entire department should be doing.

Carlyle looks down at the nurse's rear and gives a low whistle.

Officer StreetBeat yells "Hey Officer Morgan, get me another cup of coffee while you're out there?"

Officer Morgan shouts back.. "Hey.. you're missin' this man.. should get your own.."

Officer StreetBeat wanders reluctantly out and then stops, admiring the show

Nurse Goodiebreast eventually finds the sugar and stands up, tugging down her uniform which had been slowly riding up, and hands it to Officer Morgan with a vapid smile

Officer Morgan just stands there looking at her

Officer Morgan: umm... that's a nice.. umm.. shirt...

Nurse Goodiebreast: oh, thank you....*bites her lip and looks at the detective*

Nurse Goodiebreast: what are you going to do about the...*points toward the room with the bodies in it*

Carlyle: Officers, please, scoot along. I'm conducting an investigation.

Officer StreetBeat seems to have found a new comfortable spot leaning against the wall and blinks at Carlyle

Carlyle: The coroner will be by shortly, don't worry.

Officer Morgan: We're not supposed to leave yet...

Carlyle: Gentlemen, with all due respect (which is nil), you're in my way.

Carlyle: Wait in the room.

Officer Morgan moves a bit

Carlyle suddenly gets a new, manic, wide-eyed look and glares into Officer Morgan's eyes, while hissing, "ExCUSE me, Officer Morgan, but you are violating my personal bubble!" The last two words are nearly spit out.

Officer StreetBeat: can I take a dump? this coffee's gettin to me

Officer Morgan moves a bit more - close to the nurse this time.

Nurse Goodiebreast blinks and offers helpful smiles all around

Carlyle clears his throat and straightens his tie, then nods towards the restroom while resisting the urge to pistolwhip the officer.

Officer Morgan: [detective brutality! we have rights!]

Carlyle: ((not in Night City)) :P

Officer StreetBeat: thanks....um, anybody got a magazine? and some TP?

Carlyle: Grab a printout from one of the rooms. Good reading, and recyclable.

Officer Morgan strolls over, brushing the nurse kind of intentionally and smiling a bit at her before snagging the print outs from this case and throws them to Officer StreetBeat.. "use these"

Officer Morgan wanders back...

Carlyle: Say, Officer Morgan, why don't you go and throw up the rest of victim number four's larnyx?

Officer StreetBeat nods and grabs the printouts with a glare at Morgon and shuffles off

Nurse Goodiebreast breathes a little

Officer Morgan: Already did....

Officer Morgan goes off and tosses Carlyle the bag

Carlyle: Go bag it.

Officer Morgan: it's all there

Officer Morgan grins

Officer Morgan goes back to standing around the nurse...

Carlyle catches it and sighs.

Nurse Goodiebreast looks at the bag and blinks, then dissolves into tears

Officer Morgan: See, detective? you're making her hysteric...

Nurse Goodiebreast: poor Dr Mitchell!

Officer Morgan hugs the nurse comfortingly...

Carlyle drops the bag in the trash can, then grabs Officer Morgan by the ear and hauls him back into the room.

Nurse Goodiebreast leans against the cop and sobs

Carlyle: ((you're loving this, aren't you?)) :P

Officer Morgan incidentally brings the nurse along.. as he's holding her....

Officer Morgan: owwwww oww ow ow owow

Carlyle: I think I hear your mother calling, officer.

Carlyle grabs a doorstop and uses it to pry them apart.

Officer Morgan: Ummm...

Officer Morgan listens

Officer Morgan: I don't hear nothin'.... just StreetBeat groaning in the bathroom....

Carlyle shoves Officer Morgan into the room and closes the door, locking it shut. :P

Officer Morgan unlocks it and wanders out to get his coffee then leans against the wall, further away.

Carlyle makes a motion to grab his sidearm, then growls.

Nurse Goodiebreast stands there, hysterical and confused

Officer Morgan gets a magazine and sits down

Carlyle puts an arm around the nurse comfortingly, cuz he's the detective, and everyone knows the dicks get the dames.

Officer Morgan looks at the bag Carlyle's holding real close to the nurse and sighs...

Carlyle tossed the bag in the trash, dammit. :P

Nurse Goodiebreast sobs against the detective

Officer Morgan: Umm.. detective.. *points to the trash* thought that was evidence..

Carlyle: There, there, the... err... the mean officer won't bother you anymore.

Officer Morgan: hey.. Remember who ordered the larynx.. not me.

Carlyle: Remember who ate it?

Carlyle shushes Officer Morgan and leads the buxom nurse back to her station.

Officer Morgan: Not my fault..

Nurse Goodiebreast: oh, he's not mean...it's that HORRIBLE man...he killed all... Dr Mitchell!

Officer Morgan nods... "yep.. Killed 'em all dead."

Carlyle: ((no, just Dr. Mitchell, according to Nurse Bosom.)) :P

Officer Morgan: it's really a horrific scene

Nurse Goodiebreast wails at Officer Morgan's words and heaves quite impressively

Officer Morgan glances at the nurse.. "In fact, I bet the mean DETECTIVE asking you all those questions is probably making you remember all those bad things"

Carlyle sits the nurse back down and retrieves a card from his wallet, handing it to the nurse. "Quiet down, now... If you remember anything useful, give me a call, okay?"

Nurse Goodiebreast sobs loudly and nods

Nurse Goodiebreast blows her nose on the card accidentally, then looks up at Carlyle

Nurse Goodiebreast: oh....can I have another?

Carlyle looks at the card disgustedly, then hands another to her.

Officer Morgan reaches over to pound on the door to the bathroom

Nurse Goodiebreast takes it with a grateful heave and looks over at Officer Morgan

Officer Morgan: hey.. sicko..

Officer StreetBeat seems to be snoring in the john

Nurse Goodiebreast: will the officers stay here? I don't want to be left alone with this....

Officer Morgan flashes her a somewhat impressive smile... more impressive than his wits

Officer Morgan: Sure... I'm sure the detective has a case to start on

Officer Morgan: since he always gets his man

Carlyle: Yeah, they'll stay here, unfortunately. Probably fuck up the scene even more...

Nurse Goodiebreast smiles gratefully and wipes some of the mascara from her face with the new card

Officer Morgan: Actually I was getting kind of tired of seein' bodies, detective

Carlyle excuses himself and walks out to his AV, hopping in.

Nurse Goodiebreast blinks at Officer Morgan and wonders if he means dead ones or live ones

Carlyle screams off into the air and roars to god knows where. Hey, that rhymes.
