Lara Storm: slamming the table Goddamn it. We've been here an hour. Where's our guy?! Ain't got all night.
he's not a guy he's a dwarf
rolls her eyes Yeah, a dwarf who's been MIA for way too long. You know how much I love playing hide-and-seek, right?
yeah that was fun when we were 6.
leans in closer, scanning the room Look, Park, I get it. We're dealing with some pretty small fry here. But I've got a nose for these things.
and what's that supposed to mean?
smirks It means I've got a gut feeling our little friend has something up his sleeve. Something big. And we need to find out what it is before it blows up in our faces.
you mean like his mother?
narrows her eyes Oh, you think this is a joke? The tension in this room is thicker than a New York summer fog.
snaps Bad joke? You think this is a joke, Park? This is serious business. People's lives are at stake here!
yes, and your life might be one of them.
leans back, crossing her arms Oh, really? You think I'm scared? Bring it on, Park. I've dealt with worse than your twisted sense of humor.
look, I'm just saying, we need a plan
leans forward, eyes blazing A plan, huh? Well, buckle up, kiddo. We're about to dive headfirst into the rabbit hole.
okay, first, we need a distraction, and I have just the thing
grinning mischievously A distraction, huh? Well, color me intrigued. What's this master plan of yours, Park?
raises an eyebrow Music, huh? Not exactly my go-to move, but I'm willing to give it a shot. What kind of tune are we talking about?
Funiculi, Funicula by Three Dog Night
smirks Funiculi, Funicula, huh? You think a little folk rock is gonna distract our guy?
no. it's an Italian song. He's a Italian dwarf.
As "Funiculi, Funicula" starts blasting from a nearby speaker, the room fills with the lively tune. Lara and ParkMc dance around energetically, trying to get the attention of the Italian dwarf. To their surprise, the dwarf begins tapping away furiously on his phone, and within seconds, a group of scantily clad women burst into the room, dancing provocatively. The dwarf's eyes widen in shock and fear as he realizes he's been set up.
grinning triumphantly Damn straight it worked! Who needs subtlety when you've got a little music magic, right?
well...not now. we have to get through the crowd.
smirking Well, lucky for you, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve. waves her arm, causing the dancers to start spinning in slow motion
grinning Holy shit is right, Park. Time to make our move. dashes through the crowd, heading straight for the dwarf
reaches the dwarf, grabs him by the collar Well, well, well. Look who decided to join the party. Thought you could hide from us, huh?
smirking, rummages through the dwarf's pockets and pulls out his phone Right on cue, Park. Let's see what we can find here.
