((BACKDATED TO VERY, VERY LATE LAST NIGHT.))

[The camera clicks on. It's pitch black for the first couple of seconds, as the light takes a moment to adjust, revealing the profile of a man lying on the floor in a perfectly adequate position, hands at his side, palms facing down, eyes closed and peaceful.

Does anyone know where this man is? Will anyone go to him?

He was a healer. This should not have happened. I may not know what to think of his team, but he was a good man. We can not leave him this way.

[Mother recalls something then, and adds, more for her own ears than anyone else's:]

He said he had children.

Feels like it's somewhere around [blahblahblah]. Let me sit down with a map and I can figure out a specific address.

I'll make sure to get in touch with the police, we'll do what...can be done for him.

You said he was a healer?

That is good. I will trust the police.

[They might be a part of the government she's been told evacuated and then firebombed L.A., but... the chain of horrors breaks somewhere, right? Right?]

Yes.

Figure someone has to.

[He still feels pretty weird about how close he's been working with them!]

Happen to know how it would work? Passive or active, whether he could only use it on himself or others as well?

That's too bad, it could've answered a few questions this raises.

...Here in the City, or at home?

I believe they were at home. I can not be sure.

Let's hope so. And that he's back with them.

I didn't know him, but I see you did. My condolences.

I will hope that what you have said is true.

I am thankful for your words. Please be as kind to him if he does return.

[Even though she's pretty sure he won't, because she hasn't seen the back-from-death thing in action yet and still isn't positive she believes it's even possible.]

Nothing can be done for him but to hope he returns as is customary for imPorts.

He should be buried. We must do that much.
