Good afternoon, imports. [ Oh hey, it's the mayor dressed back in a suit, and looking about as professional as usual. He has a grim smile on his face, and the comm is obviously placed on his mayoral desk, Mitchell on the other side. ]

I know it's been a very interesting two weeks, and I'm very sorry for my lack of presence. Unfortunately, it seems I'm just as human as anyone else, and found myself out of comission. I'm happy to say that as of today, I'm back in the Mayor's seat, and I'm proud of the way the City administration came together in a time when things weren't so certain. Each of the members of City Hall were exemplary during the past few weeks, and I think we can all agree that it's a godsend that I have so many talented and brilliant people here in City Hall.

[ He shuffles then, and looks down at his papers. ]

And while I know it's April Fools, there's something serious I need to address. Recently information came out about the police force. I'm disheartened to say that the force acted outside of the law in response to certain crises, and while I have always supported the police force, and hoped that they would always act with decorum, we're making sure that a full investigation is acted out over the next few weeks. Nobody should fear the cops, and I hope that most in the city will agree with me that the charges of torture are inexcusable. If they prove true, we will begin a closer look at the force, and begin implementing measures to ensure that there's greater oversight for not just the members of the police force, but also for the good of the City itself.

If anyone does have any information, I urge them to speak up about it. Any information can bring a speedy conclusion to this problem, and we can get the right people to the police force.

[ He pauses, still grim, before starting to reach out to the grab the comm, but there's a shift, and while reached out, Mitchell isn't in his suit anymore, he's in a really goofy getup. Helmet, jetpack, and all. He stops, looking at his hand, mouth opening, before: ]

Motherfu--

COMMUNICATOR, OFF.

Hey, applause. I don't get that often.

Well, golly, it's not every day a mayor uses "I'm only human" as an excuse for an abrupt disappearance from his job.

If you're really interested, I'm sure the press releases would be a lot more enlightening on that subject. As it is, I'm more eager to put my ass in this seat and not leave.

No, I care more about your story than the press releases'.

It was cranial trauma, according to the doctors. Not that I knew that when I woke up in some crazy-ass mansion.

How the fuck'd that happen?

Falling wreckage at Times Square, of all things. Go figure.

Dumbass.

What, seriously? Jesus Christ, I was scratching my head!

And you lost your memory for a week.

Yeah. Next time I'm going to ignore it.

It don't make any sense to me.

Well.

I might have slipped later.

Aren't you supposed to have a bodyguard?

I was in the [ A pause, this is fucking embarrassing, and then lower: ] bathroom.

Christ.

Yeah, that about sums that up pretty well.

That's useless.

What? No it isn't! You want a detailed map with where I went? I can barely remember myself!

It is so. Anyone could just walk up to you and hit you on the head.

Well normally security's with me, so I'd say they'd be in deep shit. Unless they want to maul me on the john.

If they know that it works, why not?

Why the fuck do you think it's not being waved in anyone's faces?

Unless you're going to start trying to jump me while I'm, ah, indisposed.

[ Well, he did get at Dexter Bennett while he was in the bathtub... ]

Nah. What kind of a guy do you take me for?

[ why so creepy, max?? ]

To be honest? I'm not sure.
