Mitch backed into the receiving entrance at the rear of the Nixon Healing and Research Center. Jim Lockard, the center’s maintenance man, met him at the roll up door with a gurney and a Hispanic orderly named Miguel.

J.D. barked relentlessly. He needed to go to the bathroom and Mitch hoped for a quick drop-off. When Jim approached, he knew he wasn’t going to get it.

Mitch rolled down the driver’s side window. “Where’s Dr. Nixon?” He closed his hand gently around J.D.’s muzzle so he could hear what Jim was saying.

“He’s not coming.” Jim passed two yellow envelopes through the half-open glass, one for him and one for Max.

Miguel opened the rear doors and grabbed Carlene’s ankles, dragging her across the van’s metal floor. He turned her so that he could get his arms under her and transferred her to the gurney. She moaned, and after situating her restraints, Miguel hit her with another dose of sedative. He banged on the side of the van and waved for Mitch to come help him.

“Now what?” Mitch pocketed the envelopes and stepped out.

Miguel babbled something in Spanish and pointed toward the lobby.

Jim shook his head. “Nixon wants you to take her downstairs. There was a problem earlier and this guy’s too shaken to go down there. I had hoped you were bringing back-up.”

“I don’t want Max here. That wasn’t part of the deal.”

“Then you’re on your own.”

Mitch slipped the collar over J.D.’s head and tightened it one notch. He lifted him out of the box and handed him to Jim.

“Fine,” he said. “But I need your elevator key and you’re walking my dog.”
