The next morning Five was standing looking at the pictures on the wall while you were sitting on the couch eating some breakfast while Elliott was eating some oatmeal.

"Elliott, did you develop these photos yourself?" Five asked "Of course. Can't exactly drop that stuff off at the neighborhood Fotomat. Government has eyes everywhere" Elliott said as he was eating some oatmeal while Five picked up the tape.

"I didn't see a darkroom" he said as he turned around to look at Elliott "Yeah, I converted the hallway closet" Elliott said and pointed towards the hallway while Five picked up a black pen and scribbled out the date above the title of the tape making a squealing feedback sound as he stepped closer to Elliott who was messing with the knobs.

"Can you develop this?" he asked, showing the tape to Elliott "Hmm" Elliott said as he turned to Five before he grabbed the tape with his free hand and flipped it over, to read the back "Huh' Frankel Footage' Friends of yours?" Elliott asked "Cousins on my robot mother's side" Five answered "Can you do it or not?" he asked.

"Sure I can" Elliott answered "How long?" Five asked "Well, I mean, I'm running low on acetic acid" Elliott said as he turned around, taking some slowly steps "Beeker's Cameras is open today, but it's two miles away" he said as he was moving his head "I mean, I'd have to take the bus. On the other hand, Gibson's is only ten blocks away, but I gotta cut through the park, and there's pigeons--" "Elliott" Five said, cutting him off, telling him to get to the point. "It's like five, maybe six hours" Elliott said.

Then a voice came over the radio "Attention all units, we hav a code 3-15 at the Holbrook Sanitarium" the man over the radio said and the three turned to the radio "The hell is a code 3-15?" Five asked "Fugitives on the run" Elliott answered and the two walked over to the radio before Five turned up the volume.

"Twenty-five patients still at large. Many are considered armed and dangerous" the man said.

"Oh, Diego" Five whispered "Yeah, Diego" you clapped your hands "Oh, who's Diego?" Elliott asked "Imagine Batman, then aim lower" Five said while he lowered his hand as the sound of radio chatter continues indistinctly was heard "Does that make you Robin, Five?" you asked and Five chuckled "Nope, I'm much better. Robin wish he was me" he said and you chuckled.

"You get started on the film" Five said to Elliott before he looked at you "You stay here" he said "No, I want to help" you said "No can do right now" Five said "But you promised" you said "I know, but I need to pick up Diego" Five said before he looked at Elliott.

"Elliott, would you mind watching out for her?" Five asked and Elliott shook his head "Nope, not at all" he said "Good, I'll be back as soon as I can" Five said before he blinked away.

A song was softly playing over the radio as Diego and his inmate friend Lila was sitting in a car, just watching a building.
