The A.F.R. raid on Antitoi Entertainent (p. 483)
Through the door’s window, passing headlights illumine a disabled person in a wheelchair laboring along the rutted walk outside the Portuguese grocery opposite Antitoi Entertainent’s storefront.
Context
The raid's first pixel, through Lucien's shop-door pane: one "disabled person... laboring" along a broken sidewalk, pure pathos to any American glance — the exact gaze the A.F.R.'s entire tradecraft rests on. (Shop-name "Entertainent" is the text's own, glossed sic at n.203.)
