Hefting his backpack as Mandi tapped her phone off and put it away, Cade grinningly offered her his arm and asked, "Shall we go, milady?" Mandi shot him a glare and said, "Yes," as she started walking. Cade followed at a slight distance, the better to eyeball her backside and legs as she marched ahead. Mandi abruptly stopped and waited for him to catch up, her slight glare unabated. "Great legs, ma'am," said Cade. "Great everything, really." She made no reply as she walked beside him. At 422, he let them in and left the door slightly ajar for John, then took his coffee mug to the sink and began making a fresh cup. "Want to try some of my instant coffee?" he asked. "No." As an afterthought, she added, "Thanks, anyway, but we came here to see some pictures." Cade glanced in the mirror. Mandi was standing in the middle of the room. Oh, well. She knew she didn't need an invitation to sit down. Come to think of it, she probably didn't feel any need to sit down as often as regular people did. A sharp double tap at the door announced John's arrival and entrance. The two men with him began methodically searching Cade's room as John approached Mandi and Cade and shook hands with both of them. "Sorry," John said as he gestured at the two guys rooting through Cade's suitcases. "Her people insisted." "Figured they might," said Cade. "Alan seemed the cautious type. If I need one, can I get a loaner laptop while you root through mine?" Nodding, John said, "No problem." He turned to one of the guys searching the room and said, "Chuck, he may be dropping by later to borrow one of the pool laptops." "Yes, sir," said Chuck, resuming his efforts. "Ed," said John, "Alan played back your report on my way here. Can you add anything to it?" "Can't think of a thing, John. All I really had were some names and a room number here at the hotel." After another few moments, Chuck came to look through Cade's backpack and check his pockets, then said, "That's it, sir. Nothing left but the computer." Turning to Cade, he asked, "What's your boot-up password?" "Don't need one," said Cade. "Just hit 'enter'." The guy raised an eyebrow at that, as did John. Laughing, Cade said, "Boot to DOS and you can wipe the password file and reboot without one. I won't keep anything on a computer that I couldn't show my mother." Chuck looked at John and shruggingly nodded agreement. John looked at Cade and said, "Well, okay, then. Sorry for the inconvenience." "Oh, I guess I'll survive," said Cade. "What now? Think you can put a lid on this thing?" "Yeah, we think so. It depends on whether WNN has already sent copies to affiliates." At that, Mandi groaned softly. Cade turned to Mandi and asked, "Mandi, why you don't wear a mask or a hood? Or something?" She replied rather testily, "Do you really think you're the first to suggest that?"
