(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Miss Jones. This is Doctor Glass. I've a few questions if you have a moment.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Oh hey. Are you psychic or something? I was just telling this guy I know that I needed some time with my shrink. But that doesn't appear to be why you are texting me so I will instead ask what I can help you with.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : What can I help you with, Dr. Glass?

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : First, is Byron Thorne with you?

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : No. I saw Byron last yesterday afternoon. He dropped me off at my Mom's house over on Maple.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : What's going on? Is Byron okay?

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Byron was supposed to meet Mister Clayton and I at Miss Reede's houseboat, but he told Clayton that he was with you. There is some worry regarding a specific issue going on, yes. Byron and a Miss Winslow are missing, and Mister Clayton is searching, he wondered if you may be able to help find Byron...and I was wondering if you could stop in at a hotel room and pick up a forgotten gun before someone else gets ahold of it.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : (lots of '...')

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Yes. Tell me where and I'll come pick up the gun.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : And I will help find Ronnie. Where can I find Mr. Clayton?

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : (address of whatever hotel Isabella was staying at, complete with room number) It was left in the bathroom.

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Not sure where Mister Clayton is at the current moment, but look for a gray Aston Martin, he's currently driving it. And here is his number.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Thank you, Dr. Glass. I will do what I can. Do you know if Byron had his cell phone on him?

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Considering I've never seen him without it...I imagine he does. But if he's lying about where he is, I doubt he'll tell you.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Oh he doesn't have to tell me.

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Also. Thugs? Truth or lie.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Thugs?

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Oh you mean Green Mile and Tyler Durden?

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Byron said someone had ...I assume them. So yes? Are you alright?

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : They grabbed me outside the bus station, threatened my kid, tried to shoot me in the foot, intimidated me to tell them about the box that Jack Michaels dropped off at the pawnshop, and then left me in the middle of nowhere off 109.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Oh and now I have some kind of cursed ring flu.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : I'm peachy.

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : I see.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Oh and the guy who didn't ask me on a date is here and I'm foisting my kid off on him because a cursed mom is not a good mom and I don't want Lark to get hurt. I figure I'll also ask my high school bestie who I stopped talking to because she told me Edgar was bad news the moment we started dating but I didn't believe her and thought she was being a bitch to also babysit because I just spent the last of my retainer from Byron to buy a new phone.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Sorry. That expldoed.

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : How much did Byron pay you as a retainer, and do you accept wire transfers? I'll pay you to find him and help bring him home safe.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : I accept wire transfers. Byron gave me a thousand flat as a retainer. I don't know if I feel comfortable accepting money for something I would have done regardless, Dr. Glass.

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : You deserve to be paid for your trouble, even if you'd have done it anyways. Text me your bank information and I'll wire you the money.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : (information provided)

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : Thank you, Dr. Glass. I'm already on the case.

(TXT to Magnolia) Vivian : Thank you. Let me know when you find him.

(TXT to Vivian) Magnolia : You will be the first to hear.
