As the meeting broke up, Joe said, “Nick, what’s going on with the missing money?”

Everyone else was filing out, but a couple of them looked curiously at Nick. Nick himself looked… Joe wasn’t sure, maybe furtive? Worried at least. Joe felt his irritable nature creeping to the surface. He knew Nick’s answer wasn’t going to make him happy. Nick said, “We followed up on the video like you said. There weren’t any cameras where we actually got ripped off but…” he paused as if he didn’t know what to say.

“But what?!” Joe hated having to drag things out of people.

“There was this dude behind us… dressed really funny, Nick said in a puzzled and uncertain tone. Brightening, “Can I show you the video?”

“I don’t want to see video of some guy that’s dressed funny! I see plenty of weirdos without going out of my way to see any more.” He leaned closer to his son, “What I want to see, is video of the son of a bitch who took my money. Or, I want to see the bastard’s face over in the grilling chamber.”

Nick had leaned back nervously, “I think the weirdo’s probably the one who took the money…”

Joe interrupted, “Well then, drag his ass in here so we can ask him some serious questions!”

“Um, he was wearing a disguise. We couldn’t see his face, so we… don’t know who he is.” Nick finished in a rush.

Joe opened his mouth to yell, but then paused. He narrowed his eyes, “Wearing a disguise?” For a second he felt intrigued, then realized just how ridiculous it was. “What the hell do you mean ‘wearing a disguise’? This guy’s just walking down the street in the middle of the day with some kind of mask on and nobody says nothin’?”

Nick shrugged, “Yeah. The videos show him just walking along behind us in a freakin’ ski mask. Nobody said shit to him.”

My son’s an idiot, Joe thought. “Show me the video,” he said disgustedly.
