-So you are saying she's being trapped inside her own house?
-No Selina. Layla's..just taking a break.
-That's really a dumb way to put it Jerry.
-It's just temporary.
-Bullshit!
-...
-Break from what? Work? Don't give me that. Jerry she doesn't even give a damn about this place.
-...You know things are not like those sweet or sour little pieces of stories you just cook inside your head Sel.
-At least I don't picture them to be sad and pathetic.
-(sighs)...You are a piece of work Selina.
-...
-Why are you so damn agitated today?? Did something happened with your flatmate?
-Just give me her address. I'll go talk to her parents.
-No. Don't, do that please. Those two can't handle you.
-I wanna apologise..to all of them at least.
-Layla has no grudge against you. You know that.
-It's not just for her.
-I see.
-What are they saying? I mean the parents.
-'Her working environment, mostly the co-workers are bad influence on her mind'.
-"Co-worker" more like.
-...
-...
-Anyway, before I get back to bar it seems like your bank manager..
-Wait, owner of the house where the thievery took place by the hands of that kid?
-Yes Sel; what else?
-...,- I gave Jerry a sharp look.
-Yeah, good to be assured...so as I was saying, he was running a racketeering business underground; apparently dealing with lsd.
-LSD...what as Life saving drugs?
-I believe otherwise.
-So?
-Alkaloid.
-Hold on.
-Ephedrine.
-Stop.
-Nicotine.
-Oh; great. So then Jerry, can I leave you with this one?
-..
-Jerry?
-No.
-..What? Why's that?
-...I agreed to help you with the investigation. But..I cannot become the 'Robin' you wanted.
-No. I need you this time; even if it's the last one. This is...
-I can't put my daughter in anymore danger.
-...That's...true..that can't be happening.
-...
-...You're right.
-Sorry.
-I'll be going now. Thanks.

..(Rings)
-...
-I'm sorry about the evening.
-It's okay. You didn't have to call Jerry.
-...
-...
-(Sighs)I will give you the benefit of the doubt; work from your side then.
-...
-Swing by 21/B. I should have something new soon on the crooked business case.
-What! No; are you sure?
-Yes, as long as I stay away from another fight.
-...
-Just...keep Jane and Layla out of this.
-I know.
