Vince had no clue what Timothy was up to. The guy was acting all mysterious, so Vince leaned in, thinking maybe Timothy wanted to share a secret.

Instead, Timothy quickly plucked a hair from Vince's head.

"You had a gray hair. I took care of it for you."

"I can give you her home address, but that's it. Wait until she's discharged, give her some time to rest. I visited her yesterday—it's nothing serious. She'll be out soon."

Vince gave in, and Timothy didn't press further.
