Who: Owen, Oliver and Simms
Where: The police department and onward
When: Around 1:00pm
Owen wasn't feeling overly confident in this plan. He knew it was really the only one they had, or at least the only one people agreed on, but he couldn't help but think there was a catch somewhere. Ideally, yeah, it would be nice to take Simms to a bar, get him drunk and re-arrest him, but ideal scenarios did not happen in Zenith. Or C39. Wherever the hell they were. Owen had no idea if Simms had been tipped off about being released. Owen hadn't told him, and he had been in the station for most of the morning after Cecilia left, but that meant nothing in this place. A part of him felt like this was going to fail, or turn ugly. He understood no one agreed with letting Simms out, but trying to find a loophole in Their instructions felt like a bad idea. In any case, Owen was done arguing with people over it. Whatever happened would happen, and they would deal with it then.
While the clock neared one and he waited for Oliver, Owen worked over the plan in his mind, while trying not to think about the fact that he hadn't heard from Cecilia since she left that morning. Oliver had said she was with Juno, which made him happy that she had least had some company while this was going down. Owen was alone in the police department, save for Simms down the small hallway, but Owen had no patience for trying to converse with the guy before Oliver arrived. They had wanted Owen to release Simms on Their terms, and now that wasn't going to happen. It settled uneasily in his gut, but he tried to ignore it and trust that Oliver knew what he was doing.
Eventually Owen stood and worked on getting his tie on. It was time to get this over with. The sooner, the better.
