Re: [loot arcade; eddie/steph]
[He nods.] I'm more than okay, Stephanie. I think I've stumbled into a secret that I never knew existed before. [Eddie turns from her long enough to look out at the arcade. It's still buzzing with people who came out after work or dinner and he doesn't want to disturb them by shutting the place down to go upstairs. Instead he carefully closes the blinds and turns to look at her.] Did you hear about what happened with that teacher? His name is Harold and he teaches AP students. The best, the brightest. He also hits a lot of them and I suspect he takes advantage of some, too.
[Eddie sighs. Stephanie is aware of how hard he takes abuse against kids. As a formally abused child and someone who grew up around working girls, it's something he can't take lightly.] I tried to confront him, I asked the students to stand up for themselves- and- he gives such good recommendations to colleges. No one wants to say a word.
