WHO: Agents Hill & Coulson with Pepper Potts
WHAT: Who Shot Tony Stark?
WHERE: Irvine General Hospital
WHEN: Saturday Night
WARNINGS: None, most likely.
As a rule, investigations were rarely this high profile. If Coulson was prone to imagination, he would feel right now like Sam Spade, investigating with his Girl Friday to catch an evil would-be killer. But Coulson wasn't prone to that at all, and this was film noir with a lot less noir. Tony Stark was a rich man, but from the LAPD interview of Pepper Potts that had been one half assed attempt to rob someone who was unarmed. The Director thought it smelled funny, and like Agent Hill had said, the Director wasn't usually wrong.
But Pepper was a friend, and that made this whole thing tricky, especially the Power of Attorney change. Agent Coulson really hoped that they didn't just make things worse for her. He had no idea what Tony Stark was to her, but the detectives said she hadn't taken it well. So he waited for Agent Hill in the lobby, weighing his options. A man with imagination might do better.
