After a few minutes of travelling to another part of the city, the pair was escorted through a Police station into the main interrogation Rooms. The interview room was a simple desk attached to the floor and two pairs of chairs on either side. The two burglars were sitting on one side. Dawson could see them through a type of one way mirror as Karlson led him passed the room itself into another larger room. inside was the surveillance control were two technicians sat and monitored the Captives. The station had been moderately busy. After a moment of silent waiting the pair was joined by a man in full uniform. He shook Karlson’s hand with great delight “Commissioner, delighted to have you back” Joseph smiled “Very good to be back, Zilo” The new arrival turned to Dawson “I’m Superintendent Zilo, I’m head of this station. AS I understand you will be assisting the Commissioner with interrogating the two ding-dongs in room 2” The superintendent was a short and plump man with a walrus-like mustache, fairly easy going. “Well you two have fun and I’ll be in my office should you need anything” He turned to Karlson again and smiled “Joe” He nodded as he turned and walked… well waddled away. Joseph smiled as the man left “Well Dawson, do you have a plan of attack?”

Commissioner Karlson

Dawson considered the two for a moment. “The classic good cop, bad cop might work on them. They know I’m the one who ended up subduing them. Perhaps if you went in first as the good cop, see what you can come up with. Then, I could come in…make a scene, scare the living daylights out of them. And then hopefully we get our answers.” he said looking to the Head of Police. “Unless you have a different idea?” Dawson was open to thoughts. It was wise to conisder other avenues if he hadn’t thought of them.

Joseph couldn’t help but smile. In nearly forty years he’d never tried Good Cop Bad Cop. “I tend to approach investigations differently. Take the Chair and pull it to the other side then just…” He walked to the open door “Stare. You’ll know when it’s time to talk” He moved towards the interrogation room with his new El-Aurian partner and opened the door. The massive man entered first and slowly walked in, he seemed to exaggerate his limp as he walked to the table. He sat down slowly as if he were an old man placing the Cane right next to the table. He opened his jacket as he sat down and exhaled with a smile “Afternoon Gentlemen” He clasped his massive hands as he looked between the pair “Well this is a doozie my dearies” His voice was soft and kind, his face grandfatherly. He reached into his jacket pocket and picked a small PaDD and a pair of reading specs. He carefully placed the glasses on his nose as he tapped on the PaDD “Oh my oh my oh my” He said as he read with apparent difficulty “Braking and entering, assault and attempted battery, espionage” He read off the list with a worried look “What exactly convinced a pair of youngsters such as you to try something like this” He looked down at the pair slightly above his glasses.

Commissioner Karlson

The two just stared at the man clearly lost in thought. Meanwhile Dawson had sat down in a chair at the opposite side, as the commissioner had stated. He would humor the man. After all, this man had been on Oed in this position once before. There had to be a reason he was back, right?

The shorter of the two looked to the commissioner and spoke. “Well, you see, sir. It was–”

However before the shorter could finish his sentence, the taller of the two spoke up. “Shut it you nit! What do you think is going to happen when you talk? You’ll suddenly get off scot free?”

“Well, I just thought–“

“And that’s it there! We didn’t get paid to think! Just do the job, but no! No, you had to take longer than needed. Cameras in her bedroom? For crying out loud!”

The shorter one was getting annoyed and rebutted. “You didn’t exactly stop me, now did you. No, you probably fancied it you sicko.”

The taller one rolled his eyes and said nothing more.

Dawson looked between the two and then to the commissioner with a raised eyebrow. How had these two nuts even gotten into the house? He was amazed.

Joseph continued his smile “Ah yes, getting paid to spy, now that is a considerably less serious crime” He leaned forward, occasionally glancing at Dawson with a hint of worry, making certain they noticed “That might mean the Starfleet won’t have to take you away. Now talking, as your friend here so astutely pointed out, doesn’t mean you get to go free. However, it will make your lives considerably easier, we might even be able to knock it down to Burglary and assault.” He smiled as he put the PaDD down he was holding and turned it around “This is the carrot. You tell us everything in exchange for a lighter sentence and the possibility of Parole” The older man’s smile widened but his look went from grandfatherly to something much darker and more sinister “Do you want to know what the Stick is?” He said giving Dawson a lenghty, obvious look.

Commissioner Karlson

The smaller, not so smart one, spoke up first. “Yes, what’s the stick?”

The taller one clenched his fists. “He’s the stick you moron!”

The shorter one again, rebutted. “I’m not a moron, you nit! I can already tell you’re ready to squeal. You know what will happen to us if we tell! They can’t do anything to protect us. You know that, don’t you?” Clearly the man had been playing dumb this whole time. Maybe?

The taller man’s fists clenched tighter. “Get him out of here. I want nothing to do with him.” he said giving a side glance over to his shorter partner in crime.

Dawson kept his eyes trained on the commissioner. If he had to take one out, he would happily do so if it meant getting answers.
