A woman from one of the penthouse duplexes stormed downstairs and blocked my delivery scooter. “Everyone, come look at how disgusting this delivery guy is!” With that, she threw a half-spilled bowl of lobster bisque at my feet.

I was only here to get close to the high-priority fugitive hiding inside this building. The penthouse lady’s husband.
