Anywhere But Here. Veronica cues up a security tape, which she says came from the motel, and they watch an African-American man run through the parking lot and hop the fence. N-NW points out that twelve minutes passed between the firing of the gun and the guy taking off, which is suspicious. Everyone takes that in as, somewhere, the prosecutor gets fired from his second job at Starbucks, at which, coincidentally, he also sucks.
Keith already inside, Logan enters an interrogation room on a comment about the décor. The words and the socialite "dahling" accent he puts on combine with such gay force that I have to jump up and grab my TV to keep it from flying out the window. The two of them grin at each other, and I guess bygones have become bygones, but I suppose being manhandled by male authority figures is par for the course for Logan. In more ways than one. Keith thinks that Logan must not know what's going on. Logan: "No. But they request my presence here weekly." Heh. Keith drops the bomb about the tapes, and asks Logan whether his dad might have said anything about them. Keith's oblique accusation that he was in on the theft causes Logan to get his back up. Careful, Logan, you don't want to wear it out. Inga interrupts to tell Keith that Lloyd is on the phone, so Keith goes to take the call...
...and we see him getting the news from Lloyd that the Instigator has, in fact, been contacted about the tapes, and that the high bid is currently half a million bucks. That seems pretty high, but remember, Haaron has an ass like an eighteen-year-old wrestler. I remember these things so you don't have to. Except I guess now you kind of do.
Sacks enters the interrogation room, drops a binder on the desk, and leaves. Logan was lying on the bench, so he was somewhat easy to overlook, but this illustrates that the security Lamb was so quick to describe as kick-ass really needs a little kick. Logan gets up and pockets something from the flap of the binder just in advance of Keith returning and repeating his last question. Logan asks if Keith really thinks he would conspire to "save Daddy Dearest." I'm not sure that's the most apt comparison, but only because I could see Haaron doing some pretty creative things with wire hangers. Keith is unmoved, so Logan is all, I'll tell you if I hear anything, dude. Keith: "The name's not 'dude.' It's 'Mr. Mars.'" That's the shortest détente I've ever seen, and I grew up during the Cold War.
