ANDY FITCH'S APARTMENT
"And here's the man I've been waiting
for," Andy
says, half to
Maggie and
half to Brent, as he
and Brent share a handshake in greeting.
"Sorry I'm late," Brent says. "I
got stuck downtown ... You know how it is this time of day."
Andy nods. "It's not as though it's
a big deal. My mother's
been living with Nick
for five months. I don't
think another 15 minutes is going to make much of a difference."
Brent lifts his eyebrows. "You never
know, considering Moriani's involved."
Andy's nod grows more vigorous as
he agrees with that grim truth. He turns a bit, stepping out from in front
of Maggie. "Brent, I want you to meet Maggie Hudson. Maggie, this is Brent
Taylor."
"It's nice to meet you," Maggie says
warmly.
"You, too," Brent says with a slight
raise of his right hand. "I've heard a lot about you."
"All good things, I hope."
"Nope," Andy cuts in. "Terrible things.
Terrible, horrible things." He and Maggie share a grin.
Brent clasps his hands together.
"Anyway, we'd better get going."
"Let's," Andy agrees. "And let's
keep our fingers crossed that this works."
"It will," Brent says, though it's
clear that he's trying to convince himself as much as Andy. "And if--when
it does, we may have that crack we need to bring Moriani's house of cards
tumbling down."
