"Wait a minute", says Carl. "If he was missing for fifteen years would they not have known? Would there not have been missing persons reports and searches?"
"Apparently his mother was getting phone calls from him every couple of months or so. Yet he says he doesn't remember anything."
"Francois, text Jason. Right now."
"Yes massah."
"Francois!"
"I only do that to bug you. it's a sign of affection."
"I would prefer a hug, I think."
"Okay" says Francois, stoppíng in his tracks to enfold Carl in a warm sustained hug.
"That's much better" says Carl as they gently disengage.
"As soon as we find a bench to sit on I will send Jason a text. .. And not a moment sooner."
