Belle had stolen clothing from the hotel room she'd been hiding in during the fire alarm. She'd posted her call for aid from a different room, so Julien couldn't figure out where she'd been easily. But the clothing was ill-fitting, and hung off of her frame. Not to mention she was obviously malnourished and looked like she'd be beaten. So she went with it, mumbling nonsense, pretending to be a beggar. It was better than standing out.
She arrived at Marrow's building, and her manner changed. Not wanting to take anymore shit, she forced one of the bell boys to open the door for her, and glared at anyone who might tell her she had to go.
Luckily, Marrow had given her good directions. She didn't have enough energy to knock, so she kicked at the door.
