[ The feed starts with an unoccupied frame; the image of a small but well-organized kitchen. The doors to the pantry and the cabinets above and below the counter top are all open revealing a well-stocked reserve of food. Plentiful as the stores may be, it seems as though something is missing.
Al steps into the frame to close the cabinets before he addresses the screen. ]
Around here they take people, maybe some dignity here and there if you let 'em...but petty theft? Nobody likes a thief whether it's a curse or just some chump acting alone. Who makes off with pots and pans without making a sound?
[ This is problematic, not just for a hungry man, but for one that finds relaxation in the act. It's a reprieve from work, which has been profitable as of late. ]
These past few weeks haven't been easy on anyone, so in exchange for borrowing some cookware I'm more than happy to pay the generosity forward. I can cook any kind of real food, whatever you're craving or you miss from home.
[ He contemplates this offer for a moment. Home has a different spectrum here, he has come to find. ]
If it can't be done, well, there's always spaghetti.

[ Not that he's thrilled about going out to pick them up-- who knows what else can disappear while he's away. ]
You missing anything?

[A slight frown.]
Who'd steal pots and pans?

Re: Video
You can come by and get some. You know where I live.

Skillet, couple of sauce pots, silverware, lids if you've got 'em--
[ He's thinking... ]
Whatever you can spare.
[ But really, don't show your face without at least one sauce pot. ]

[In exactly twenty nine minutes, he'll arrive at Al's apartment, arms laden with pots and pans. He doesn't knock so much as bump the door with his elbow -- his hands are too full.]

It's tucked back into his holster once he recognizes the face. ]
Hey. You really came through.
[ Al steps aside to let Meyer and his mass of cookware in, surveying it carefully. ]
