to an opulent spa facility and massage room. High windows, sky lights. Fatale's
half-sister, Ms. Ogun, is lying on a massage table, nude, tummy side down,
head on pillow, towel on butt - tastefully posed! She's being massaged by a
large, Aryan man, older, big, husky, wearing white t-shirt, pants. A male receptionist
is holding the door open and an executive-dressed man is walking reluctantly
in the door.

is trying to avert his eyes. Closer to is Ogun, cropped, her back to us. Obviously
her body is in position so that Reynolds has quite a view, but be discreet
about what the reader sees. This panel and the next two should be shot from

Reynolds:
It's Fitzgerald, Ms. Ogun. We tried to keep him alive long enough to extract
some information, but... Ogun:
So...you let him die before we could find out where he's hidden the baby.
