“Yes.”

“How much?”

“How much what?”

“How much does this pay? Union scale?”

“Sure. Yes. Right.”

“Okay, Drew!” Her voice is a little loud.

“One more thing – my name is Pete.”

“Pete?”

“Yeah. For the show. You know. Acting.”

Pete? Silas mouths.

“Can I use my regular name? Like on other reality television shows? I need the recognition. Why don’t you use Drew?”

“I’m incognito.”

“I thought you said you were Pete?”

I don’t even bother to look at Silas’ reaction.

“Watch out the window for a van. And whatever you do, don’t say my real name.”

“Okay.” She pauses. “So that means...”

“Don’t call me Drew.”

“Right. You’re Pete!”

“Yes.” I feel like I should give her a trophy for remembering. Lindsay’s life rests in this woman’s hands?

“And when you’re in my apartment, I should assume the cameras are on?”

“Yes. See you shortly.” I hang up.

“You’re crazy,” Silas says.

“Heard from Mark?”

“No.”

“Then this is our best option.”

“You’re relying on a porn star to help smuggle you into her apartment so you can covertly break into your own apartment and rescue Lindsay.”

“You got a better plan?”

He just inhales slowly.

“I thought so. This is the best plan. Mark got me out. He did the important part. I wish I knew where he was and could talk to him. I can’t. So we proceed.”

“Which means I need to get my hands on a surveillance van that looks like a handyman vehicle.”
