The call came in at 0300, Elmo had been pinched. Bruno sighed and thought to himself “here we go”. If you know Elmo, you know that Elmo doesn’t have a “doing time” sort of disposition, and it would take very little time for the interrogator to know all that Elmo knew and if it came down to either Bruno or Elmo? You’d best believe it wasn’t going to be Bruno.
The bail hearing adjourned after another of Bruno’s crew “the Count” was removed from the court room, obviously the $10,000.00 bail note was too much to resist, he had, however gathered the needed intel. for his boss. Elmo looked no worse for wear, smiling and singing as always. Elmo had been diagnosed with ADHD months earlier, but with prescription medication was quite focused and cold blooded, it would appear the medication did not survive the pat down.
Once Bruno was advised of the bail amount a sum of $10,000.00; cash was transformed into temporary freedom for Elmo and there to welcome him at the outer door was Sully and Bif, two ex construction workers from the area, who were well known for their collection tactics. Elmo got into the car and sighed: “Elmo so happy to be out of there, can we get Happy Meal?”
Sal eyed Bif and with a half hearted grin said: “Sure 'ting kid, we’ll get you a happy meal”.
The car turned down a barely lit alley and with two quick gunshots the silence over Sesame street broke with a scream, a plea then two more gunshots. It was clear to Elmo from the get-go that Bruno had no intention of letting him see the light of day again, but with some quick moves and a clear head, Elmo had won his freedom, at least for now.
