"Thank you." He said, walking in. "I'll head to the room my band was in, and I'll meet you in the security office?"

Lulu nodded, planning to head to the drum room.

Eric walked down the hall to the room they were practicing in the other day, relived to find it empty and his guitar case there. "Yes!" He whispered, digging the flash drive out of the pocket and picking up the case.

Lulu stepped into the room - door now open and free, and looked around. There wasn’t much, except a little Manila folder that looked like the ones they’d first found back at the office.

Eric walked back out, heading to the security room.

Lulu shrugged and picked up the folder, figuring it was the least she could do until Eric came to investigate it with her. She started to walk back to the security office.

Eric stood by the door, waiting for her.

Lulu caught up to him, smiling a little. “Find it?”

He held up the flash, grinning. "Now let's get some footage."

Lulu returned the grin and pushed open the door.

"Hello?" He asked, peeking in the empty office. "Huh…"

"Not this again." Lulu rolled her eyes and walked inside, putting the folder on the desk. "Last time we were in an empty office together, we started a conspiracy theory."

"To be fair, we can't really start a new one at this point." He pointed out, following her in. "Wait, where'd you get that folder?"

"It was on the floor in the drum room where everything happened yesterday. It's not all that big, but there was also a briefcase I didn't check." She explained, sliding behind the desk.

He nodded, looking to find video of yesterday.

"There's something here. Here," Lulu pointed out, jabbing a finger at the screen that showed a split-second clip of two men in black suits, just like the men yesterday.

"I've never seen them before." He muttered, rewinding the clip. "What are they doing?"

"Running. Very fast. With a…with a suitcase!" She exclaimed, hitting the screen again with her finger. "Hang on. Pause right there."

He paused it. "What? What about the suitcase?"

"They had two. And then here - they dropped one!" She yelled. "That's the one in the drum room. We have to get it."

"I'll get it!" He said, heading out the door.

"Eric," She called after him. "I'm coming with you. Hang on."

He paused, turning to wait for her. "Fineeeeee…"

Lulu quickly caught up to him on his crutches, slowing to a stop. "You're slower than me."

"Ya don't have to rub it in." He muttered, starting to walk again.

"Okay, whatever," She responded with a small smile, leading him towards the small drum room.

"Okay, so, suitcase…" He said. "What do you think is in it?"

"I don't know. Let's find out," She said, opening the door and shutting it behind them.

Eric shifted awkwardly. "Would you like to do the honors?"

"Sure." Lulu bent down, unlatched the suitcase with a small click, and pulled it open.
