F is for Foresight

When Officers Bert and Ernie discovered the trail of snuffleuppagus hair it had become evident that Snuffy had either developed mange or was losing hair with the added stress of his current situation. Though it wasn't spoken there was an added urgency to locating the tandem before things got worse.



Back at the crime scene the forensic specialists "Professor" and "Beaker" had secured the evidence, taken the photos and Maria's body was being transported to the Sesame Street Morgue which was actually located on Letter Y street. This was an undesirable location with the likes of Bruno (the former trash hauling giant) who had diverted from his original blue collar employment to seek fast money and easy women in the city's West end. His reputation was that of a notorious drug mogul as well as a womanizer. Though he was still referred to as "The Trash Man" his motivation was far less innocent.



Bruno and Oscar had parted ways shortly after "The Trash Can" opened its doors, Oscar disconnected himself from Bruno and left him with very little to look forward to each day. As a matter of fact he had a staff of thugs and runners which surrounded him and assisted the creation of his empire. His most popular drug was brought to you by the letter "E"; which kept the kids on the Sesame Streets.



Once Maria had made her first voyage as a corpse the word had spread through town and the demand for "E" had skyrocketed out of fear that a raid would prompt a shortage. Bruno was attracting much unwanted attention and it would only be a matter of time before his crew slipped up, Bruno's foresight was 20/20.
