Bassarov, Tom, and Lysander meet with the police, but they find out nothing. The police claim to know nothing of the incident, and they are sent away with out the information. Frustrated, they walk on.
In the meantime, Bassarov decides to give a call to Alejos to check up on things.
He calls his cell phone and waits for Alejos to answer...

"I don't think she had to do with your FBI guy's death, but you never know." Gabriel replies. He gets out of bed and puts a shirt on. He feels more comfortable talking to this guy when he isn't in bed and half undressed. Before answering the second part of the question he walks to the window. He peers through the curtains as if the answer resides outside there. The light makes him squint a little.
"Kolov...Kolov...can't say I heard of him. But she gave me a package for HOLY. It was a donation from a man identifying himself as D. I would like to know more about it. I don't like the idea that we're taking donations from heathens. Dirty money."
Gabriel turns away from the window and faces the FBI man, but doesn't look him in the eyes. He rubs the unseen tattoo of a cross on his arm. It is covered by his white shirt.

Alejos hears his phone ring. Usually the ones who call him speak mostly Spanish, so when he answers, he does so in Spanish. "Hola, Alejos aqui. Que pasa?"

"Alejos? This is Bassarov.." Bassarov says, a little confused by the Spanish. "I was just calling to say that I didn't find anything out about Alvaro or the leaders."

"Oh, hi Bassarov," Alejos says, now speaking English again. "That's ok, just please keep me posted. How're you feeling?"

"I am feeling better. I left the hospital today. I am not completely better and do have some terrible burns on my body, but I think I will be able to take care of myself. Anything new on your side of the world?"

"Good news in Brazil. Armed revolution is about a month away if nothing unexpected--say a volcanoe or a military coup for example--should happen."

"That's great. If you've been watching the news, dozens of German politicians were poisoned. I think my next move will be to travel to Germany, so it doesn't look like I will be traveling to South America any time soon."

"I haven't been able to keep up with global news. Last I heard the US was going to invade Syria and Iran. I understand, though. The situation in Germany could be dangerous. As much of a threat as Capitalism is, Fascism is the ultimate threat to all that we stand for."

"Yes it is a little frightening. I worry about the German comrades since I have not been in contact with them. Anyway, if you notice any fascist movements keep an eye on them. I though fascism was mostly dead, but apparently not."

"As scary as Fascism is, I fear Naziism is the more dangerous threat. Anyone willing to follow the ideas of a doped up, hypocritic man who was addicted to heroin and about 7 other deadly drugs is a threat to the global proletariat on so many levels it's not even funny. I'll keep an eye out while I'm here, but I'm hoping that you guys can pull off some kind of counter offensive in the event the Nazis gain more power."

"I will have to read the writings Trotsky did on fascism and national socialism. But I will certainly do what I can to help the German comrades." Bassarov says. He sees that Tom and Lysander are becoming impatient.
"I have to get going. I will talk to you soon. Good luck." Bassarov says, before clicking off.
(I am getting offline for a while)

"You too, Comrade," Alejos says, hanging up the phone. He sigs and leans back in a chair. Lately he's been feeling as if the weight of the global proletariat was on his shoulders, and he wasn't even head of the revolution! He was only in the 2nd tier of leaders, why was it HIM who was on TV, and why was it HIM who was planning the revolt's origin and training troops?
'No! These are things the enemy would want you to think, Alejos! You must remain strong and keep faith in the proletariat!'

Grey decides that he will be on the gardening committee. He doesn't care for violence, and growing food for the commune seems like an important job.
He heads out of the garden and spends the day with other SLA members hilling the dirt and planting potatos.

Bassarov begins to walk once again with the others. He heads to a government building where they may have better luck with their inquiry. He enters the building with Lysander and Tom, but like last time, he will let them do the talking.
