:::Cora looked up from her embrace with Luke, and saw the shining lights...and a man dressed differently than everyone else approaching them. A wide grin began to spread across her face:::
Oh...Luke! Look, the law enforcement is here!!

**The policeman slowly made his way to the front of the crowd and calmly looked everyone over. He sniffed and reached into his pocket, pulling out a pack of gum. He nonchalantly slipped out two sticks, unwrapped them, tossed the wrappers on the ground to the side, and began chewing. He spoke with a midwestern accent, addressing Luke and Cora**
Folks. Officer Felix McCreedy.
**McCreedy pointed to his badge on his shirt**
Philly PD. Bruno over there told me that there was an altercation inside. What's the story?

:::Cora has already released Luke and stands before the officer looking giddy... she's doing everything she can to restrain herself from saluting:::
Oh, yes sir! There was an altercation inside the vacinity earlier, and then it progressed to this location. But as you can see it entirely diminished now. I do believe though that the participants are in need of some medical attention.
:::the smile didn't go away, not even when she said they needed medical help:::

**McCreedy raised an eyebrow at the girl. She was certainly an odd one**
Okay, miss. Since you seem to know all about it. What was this "altercation" over?
**McCreedy pulled out his pocket tape recorder and turned it on. He was far too lazy to be bothered with pen and paper notes**

*Luke looks at Cora. Was she ********' stoned? Luke juts forward next to Cora, before she can say anything else.*
*Luke spoke overtop of Cora.* Officer, that ....*thinks "********" - but says* guy over there started a fight with another guy in the club. I got involved when he threatened my friend. *He motioned to Cora.*

:::Cora nods, trying not to appear so happy about this:::
Yes, that is what happened. But I am not harmed. Uhm... they are though.

**McCreedy lets out a longwinded sigh and looks around. He points at Luke and Cora and stares down his nose at them**
You two wait right here, okay? Don't think about taking off on me, understand?
**McCreedy turns and walks over to the bouncer holding Aaron back and begins talking to him**

*When the cop turns his back, Luke runs a hand down his face. s**t. s**t. He was in it. He was being questioned by a cop. s**t. s**t.*
*Luke takes a deep breath and lets it out. Okay, he could still run this. He was sober. He was sober...*
*Christ, he was so ******** drunk.*
*Luke looked to Cora. He shakes his head. Christ, at least one of them was having a good time.*
Cora, let me handle this.
*And Luke thinks - Because I might be getting arrested.- ********. ...******** let me do the talking...okay?

Luke... you look really upset. What's the matter? :::She put a concerned hand on his arm::: Everything is being sorted out now, it's alright.

*strangely - almost serenly calm* Yeah, they'll sort me out. *murmurs* Right into handcuffs.
*Luke points to Aaron talking to a cop.* See, that ******** over there can say whatever he wants. And it doesn't look like he's saying what upstanding citizens we are.

Hm... that's right. If that man lies, then the officer has no way of telling whether or not he is telling the truth. :::She marvels at this for a moment::: I think that might be why this system is so corrupt! :::it was like an epifany.
:::snapping out of it:::
So how DO the officers tell when a citizen is lying?

Look, Cora, I know this is a real learning experience for you. *Luke lays it out.* But if you say something wrong, I can't fix it. So just let me talk, okay?

**McCreedy sauntered back up to Cora and Luke and addressed Cora**
Ma'am? That fellah over there says that you were coming on to him pretty strong. Is this true?
