Beth and Morgan are going over the fire photos at Buzzwire. Maureen comes in to see what they're up to.
Beth is thinking of doing a story on the fire. Maureen doesn't think its exciting enough. She wants a celebrity or dead body to perk it up. Hmmm......
Beth comments that Mo always goes for the lowest common denominator but she'll work on her.
Morgan thanks Beth for the support. Beth says its no big deal, anything to keep her away from restuarants and fashion shows.
Beth notices that Morgan has a wound on her arm.
Morgan tells her that someone broke in her house and they scuffled. He stabbed her. It's not bad, though. Just a couple stitches.
Beth was surprised that Morgan fought him, but hey, he was taking her cameras. Beth asked if she called the police.
She says yes but they acted like they had more important things to do. But she would love to get her hands on the punk.
And never mind getting her cameras back. Morgan has an idea. She asks Beth what about her PI friend. Beth seems started. I'm guessing she'd be very happy if these two never cross paths again.
Beth says that she didn't think Morgan was very impressed by him. She replies that he
was persistant.
Next we see Beth walking down Mick's hallway and knocking on the door to his office.
Mick opens the door and Beth breezes in saying that she figured he be up. He says she knows him all too well.
A sound or a scent must alert him. He turns and Morgan is at the door.
She enters and Beth explains that Morgan needs Mick's help. He's a little shell shocked.
Morgan goes through the story. She says she had jewelry out but the thief only took her cameras.
Which is why she attacked him. Those cameras were expensive.
Mick confirms that she attacked the thief. Beth is watching him as he watches Morgan. Morgan says she had mace. Which was just enough to piss the guy off. he stabbed her with a letter opener. Mick does a subtle sniff.
Beth tells Mick that Morgan needs her cameras back. Morgans tells him that Beth says he's the best. Mick's reaction always confuses me here. He answers, "She did, huh?" Like he's annoyed with Beth. Beth says defensively that she's said it several times.
Mick stares at Morgan. She stares back.
Beth suggests that Mick go by Morgan's place, take a look around (brave, brave girl)
Morgan adds that, if it helps, she can identify the guy. She never forgets a face.
We flashback to the party where Mick met Coraline. She beckons to him and he goes to her.
She asks if he can play something to get 'this snore on its feet'.
'Like what?' he asks. She makes a couple suggestions. She wants something with more rhythm. He doesn't know if that crowd will like the devil's music.
That's the point. He makes a suggestion. She wants him to play Ain't That Just Like a Woman.
Mick agrees. On one condition. Coraline tells him her name. He smiles, he didn't say what the condition was. She says that's always the condition.
She gives him a kiss on the cheek and walks away. He watches her leave.
