Glimpsed from the Man o' War Grille

texture · 14 Nov YDAU, ~2200h

• When: 14 Nov YDAU, ~2200h, as the pair (and Poor Tony) pass the front windows of the Man o' War Grille on Prospect St.
• What: From inside the Portuguese restaurant, Matty Pemulis looks up from his soup and sees "two underweight interracial girls moving across the window" — neither named, neither noticing the pile of bowel movement everyone is stepping around — and, a few seconds behind them, Poor Tony Krause, whom he barely recognizes. The beat is a third external lens on Ruth (and Kate): the same walk, seen from a passing window, with the predator already in frame. (Identification is INFERRED, never stated outright: scene 131 never names either girl; it rests on the identical time, place, thin purse-straps, and the trailing Poor Tony, the same cross-scene identification carried at Poor Tony's timeline (event 10) and Matty Pemulis's timeline (event 6) — see Dating notes.)
