... before he goes up into the kitchen. Marlene come to the door and cautions him to be quiet as he climbs the steps to her. He kisses her then whispers, "Kids asleep?" She points at the living room door and whispers "Nina." She beckons for him to follow her outside so he goes down the steps to the side door and goes out with her. "I might as well tell you right off the bat. I’ve been sleeping over with Jeff since you left. Nina's been sleeping in our bed." "What? How come?" "The police came with a search warrant on Tuesday and went through the house then went over and went through Jeff's place too. He is furious. I don't think they found what they were looking for but they brought back your briefcase. They didn't seem too happy. Jeff doesn't know what they were looking for but Nina told me. Jeff doesn't know she told me. She went in to work yesterday and said they did nothing to her. She says it was the same today." "So why's she here?" "She doesn't know where else to go. Jeff won't leave her alone. He keeps insisting she tell him what is going on and she won't say anything because he might report you both. I've been sleeping over there to try and soften him up, but no luck so far." "Sounds like you've had a fun week. Does she go home to change." "She brought a bunch of her stuff over.

You still have a lot of the savage beast in you." "So, did the gendarmes leave any message for me, other than the obvious keep out of our business?" "Nothing. I was surprised they didn't have anything to say to Nina. She thinks you destroyed all the papers, but I know you better. You've still got them, haven't you?" "The less you know, the less they can get out of you." "You've got them. Somewhere." Mike goes back into the house and Marlene follows. They find Nina in the kitchen at the table with a cup of coffee. "Marlene has told you? Jeff was threatening me with divorce yesterday. This morning he was a little calmer but when I came in tonight he just glared at me. He won't talk." Mike sits beside her and says, "Nina, I can't see you two going through this because of me. We are going to have to tell him about the file." "Because of you? He's putting me through this because he feels so guilty about having an affair. He's just a big baby in many ways. He’s pouting because he was caught. He's such a sensitive man, not at all Marlene's type. I still love him dearly and he will get over this in a few days, I'm ...
