The search for Jerry

Apple

Diane, Jerry’s mom was placed under arrest. She told the officers that a woman dressed in black was spraying wine and launching apples at her out of her hands and eyes. The police recognized that she was high and wasn’t sober. They attributed her rash statements to that. Alana was long gone. She was on the BQE heading back to Marc. Anat hung around to see what she could learn. She thought the male officer was cute.

Anat told the officers nothing about Alana. Alana and Marc might still think of her as the enemy. However, Thanos, she was not. The cops were briefed in by the child protective services center that she was considering adopting Jerry.

Diane said nothing about where her husband, Jay was and if she knew if he still had Jerry. They were trying to find out if Jay was planning to dump him on the street or pass him off to someone. She was placed in the squad car.

Other officers went to her residence to search for the kid. They didn’t find him. They found cocaine, heroin, illegal firearms and lots of booze. They interviewed a few neighbors. That amounted to nothing but warnings to stay clean. The officers were going to find family members to interview and search their homes.

Anat went home and cried. Alana and Marc cooked rigatoni with vodka sauce and sipped chardonnay while listening to the Ramones. Marc was thinking of driving up to camp. It was closed. But he knew he could get in. His section has been closed since the ‘90s. But that never stopped him from camping there.
