I laugh, staring at my glossy red nails. "I don't remember asking for this...and anyway, I only got the manicure for a tour, Miss. Myung promised me to show me around more...I'm not done with my investigation."

"Oh, well we can continue the tour. We're done here. Just follow me!"

I follow Heidi, still glancing down at my polished and glossy red nails, the robe tickling my legs as I walk.
"I will have to get this polish off before I go, Heidi. And is there anywhere I can buy new clothes?" I ask.

"I'll make sure you have everything you need before you leave," Heidi stops and opens a door. "This is the body wrap room. Please come in."

I nod and follow her in, still staring at my bright red nails.
"You will take the nail polish off though, right? I don't want to be the joke of the year at the station..."
I pull the small robe tighter around me as we enter the room. My feeling of suspicion grows; this is no ordinary salon.

"Of course I will." Heidi sighs. "This room is where we apply herbal wraps to our clients. Would you like to inspect them as well?"

"Inspect your herbal wraps or your clients?" I joke.
"What exactly do your herbal wraps do?" I ask, looking around the room slowly. "And pretty soon I'll need to ask more personal questions Heidi; I hope you don't mind."
I try to organize my thoughts quickly. There's either something going on with the employees, the product, or the process its self. Hopefully some in-depth questioning of Heidi will give me a direction to verbally travel to.
I'll bring this place down, I swear.

"Well, we have several types. We have body fat loss, body tissue restructuring, and body mass altering. Would you care to see them?"

"Wow, that's quite...impressive." I say, feeling at a sudden loss for words. "Is it all FDA approved? Does the Department of Health know about this?" I question, perplexed.
"I'll need to see some kind of record of the last fire and health inspection," I add, taking another glance at my shiny red nails. "And please, Heidi, can we do something about my nails?"

"Why red, of all colors? I am a man, after all."

"Sure, but I've already prepared this wrap for you. Let me wrap you first for your investigation, then we'll fix those nails."

I frown. It's really unprofessional, but she seems like a nice enough girl...
I smile. "Alright Heidi, just as long as you promise to fix my nails," I wink. "I'm not sure how I would explain to the wife or to the station about that," I laugh.
"Do you think it would be alright if I called the station for a new uniform, by the way?" I ask. "I need something to wear back."

Heidi's smile wavers. "Yes I believe that would be alright. I'm just trying to give you the answers you need, officer. I feel like your badgering me when I'm just trying to be nice."

I bite my lower lip, slightly embarassed for my rudeness. "I'm sorry Heidi, you have to understand it's my job..." I let my voice trail off; an attempt to explain my motives.
"I promise, no more harsh questioning," I laugh, slightly. "Anyway, since I'm in this robe, I guess a wrap wouldn't be all that bad."

Heidi grins, albeit nervously. "You're going to have to take off the robe and just stand there in your underwear, officer."
