It turns out that "Apples" has heard something about the next drug heist. Something like where and when. But how will the strong-arm methods used by Power Man and Iron Fist affect their street rep?
Shortly at the Gem Theater, where Luke Cage lives and has an office, Power Man and Iron Fist enjoy a lunch of sausage an' anchovy pizza. (FYI: The hit on the warehouse is not until later.)
"Hi, guys!" says D.W. Griffith, the film student who's family owns the movie house. On their way in, Danny noticed a new guy in the ticket booth. This struck him as odd, because normally D.W. is at the window, but today he's come upstairs to Luke's apartment.

"Yo. Uh, shouldn't you be working the ticket booth, or something?" Iron Fist prodded playfully.

"Erik, a friend of mine from film school, he's gonna be helping me out here while I'm tied up with an assignment for school" D.W. explains. "See, I'm taking this course on documentaries, and we've each got to film one of our own. It's a really important grade, so we've got to make sure we pick a subject that's interesting enough to grab attention, complex enough to bear investigating, and is something we can get a lot of footage on."Power Man's Health: 5/5 Power Man's Energy: 15/15

Danny looked at Luke, a small smile forming on his face. "You thinking what I'm thinking? We've got something to investigate... he needs an exciting documentary for his school buddies..."

Oh No, Danny! Luke puts his hands up in protest, I don't think that would be a good idea! All kinds a wrong could happen!

"This is my big chance!" D.W. pleads. "If I make a documentary on you two, it'll stand out among the others--heck , it'll blow the class out of the water!"
"I'm serious Luke! My professor knows people! If he likes it, he could show my film to people at United Artists or somewhere!"
"Please??"Suddenly, another voice calls from the open doorway, "Hey, there, what's doin'?" It's Bob Diamond and Colleen Wing! Iron Fist's Health: 3/3 Iron Fist's Energy: 9/9 [Durability updated from 4 to 3 because non-summoning chi Stamina and Durability are both listed as "Athlete" in OHOTMUME.]

Danny considered the pizza, but put the slice back down. "Just considering a business proposal. Think about it Luke... what would the rights to a Heroes for Hire movie franchise be worth? D.W. will be alright... we can keep an eye on him, its not like we've never pulled bodyguard duty before."

In addition to being Iron Fist's sparring partner, Bob Diamond is an actor. Colleen Wing runs a private detective agency with Danny's girlfriend, Misty Knight, entitled "Nightwing Restorations Ltd.". Both are eager to tell the Heroes for Hire what brings them here. "Danny," Colleen says. "Misty and I've gotten tired of waiting for you to snap out of that funk you're in, and we've decided to take steps! We're all going out on the town tonight, and if you know what's good for you, you'll enjoy yourself!"But Power Man and Iron Fist are on a case. They'll probably be working very late.

Luke can see the change in Danny's face as he tries to figure out what to say, so he intercedes, We gotta case Colleen and we're probably workin' late. Maybe we can meet you when the job's done?

"Yeah, we need to resolve this problem... and I do need to sleep sometime, you know. My body is a well-tuned machine."

"Oh, that's okay," Colleen says. "So that's settled."But if the Heroes for Hire are going to do that, they better get back to work now. And so, later... "The mood is tense here," D.W. narrates into his camera mic, "as Power Man and Iron Fist stake out the warehouse. All is dark and silent, but both know that the hour draws near for confrontation..."Iron Fist's Health: 3/3 Iron Fist's Energy: 9/9

When times like this come, Danny is all business. He doesn't have to focus on anything but getting the job done. He kept his body loose and his mind tense, the way he'd been taught, and waited...

Shhhhh, D.W.! Luke is getting antsy. He wants action, all this sittin' round is bad enough without a commentary.
