Pat's standing instruction: keep Emil and Wade off David K.

texture · 14 Nov YDAU

• When: 14 Nov YDAU (overheard during Marathe's Ennet House visit).
• What: Handing off duties to the live-in Staffer Johnette, the House's "woman with authority" (Pat, by the scene's frame — the name is never used in-scene) issues a standing order in passing: "And keep Emil and Wade from tormenting David K., will you please?" The bare first names mark how routinized the duo's conduct has become — tormenting the House's grimmest new arrival (the limbo-locked ATHSCME executive whose story scene 161 tells) is a known, managed House condition, not an incident. (The first-name identification with Minty rests on the standing Emil/Wade pairing — see Dating notes.)
