The men were cheerful enough when they called back to Batou, obviously they recognized him, but they wanted to check his truck anyway. The nice men ambled up to the truck and peered up at Remy, their faces sliding from cheerful to worried in a heartbeat. "Ma'am?" One of them asked. "You alright in there?"
