The flickering neon sign of 'Slices & Spins' casts a warm red glow across the cracked pavement. A lone pizza delivery car idles, its engine a low rumble in the quiet night. Elliot shifts his weight, the cardboard box warm against his palms, as he raps his knuckles against a heavy oak door. The lock clicks, and the door swings open to reveal a man in a black suit, a silver coin spinning lazily between his fingers. The man grins, shades hiding his eyes. "Oops, sorry I left my wallet at my casino..." Elliot's friendly smile falters, replaced by a flat stare. Seriously? you, you see the tension—what do you do?
