Chad at the Carnival, Thursday evening (backdated)
He had the pass tucked away in his pocket as he walked through the carnival, hands in his pants pocket, close to his wallet. Even though he knew these people knew who he was, he didn't trust them to not try taking his wallet.

Chad wound his way through the people, watching the couples play silly games for stuffed animals and seeing children traumatize goldfish with ping pong balls. What he was after was past all of this. Maybe he'd see Estrella again, but if he didn't then he didn't. Her father was quite agreeable to anything Chad asked for, so long as they didn't get shut down. He'd only upped his demand from the first year due to the inflation of money, and the show pass was Ricardo's idea and after the first time going, Chad didn't turn it down.

Showing the attendant his pass he looked around at the girls for a minute. Estrella was not there, or otherwise occupied, and he settled on a petite blonde that barely spoke English. She looked to be about sixteen, maybe seventeen, but she moved like a woman of the world. He sat back and watched her, noted the small tattoo on her left hip and licked his lips as she stripped.

Would it be a safe assumption to say Chad liked when the circus came to town? Yes - especially this one. When the morning rolled around he collected his handcuffs from the still smiling girl, nodded and walked away. He'd just pulled an overnight stakeout mission as far as anybody else was concerned and he needed a shower then some sleep. Good thing his wife was already at work and the kids still had school.
