The Perfect Crime [Thursday, Period Five]

The Danger Shop was set up to look like a luxuriously, but tastefully, decorated loft apartment, and while Rick was currently nowhere to be seen, an older man leant against the railing, greeting them with an urbane smile.

"Good afternoon," he said, waving them up the stairs. "You must be Richard's class, my name is Powell. I was hoping Richard himself would be here to introduce me, but it would seem he's gotten himself into some sort of trouble."

"No trouble, I just wanted to make an entrance," Rick announced, breezing into the room with as much aplomb as he could manage. The effect was ruined somewhat by the fact that his heavy breathing indicated he'd just run all the way to the Danger Shop.

Well, that and the fact he was wearing glasses and a cassock.

"After all, you do have the market cornered on impressive exits," he continued, grinning and patting Powell on the shoulder. "This here is my friend Powell, or at least the best simulation of him that the Danger Shop could come up with."

"I should be a very good simulation indeed," Powell added wryly. "Given the last time Rick described me, it was good enough to end my career. Children, if you're going to use a master criminal as a character inspiration, learn the meaning of 'anonymous source' first."

Rick eyed the simulation of Powell, he didn't think he'd programmed him to be that sassy. "Powell here used to be a member of that rare and dying breed, the gentleman cat-burglar," he said. "The kind that you didn't even know had been there until you went to get what they'd taken. Any and all questions you have about the art of not getting caught in the act of non-violent crime, he's your hologram."
