H-179: Captree

I wouldn’t call it a waste, you can be relatively comfortable there won’t be any future consequences as a result of Odelia’s suspicions about Lia’s authenticity.

Benino nods thanks; Lia may note that he’s always happy to talk about and praise the skills of his chef to people, he just doesn’t want them to talk to him.  Lia has a sense that Benino is a deeply feeling and kind man at heart, though he is occasionally capable of quite ‘tough love’.

Maxine nods understanding, though, she says, Lia has such a lovely voice she’s sure an ‘anonymous diner number 2’ snippet interview would be well received if she’s up for it.  Maxine says she will arrange for a vid crew to drop by Platters early in Green Shift in three Cycles time – she wants to catch the starset through the expansive view windows as a backdrop to location filming.  The crew will come back in Blue Shit to pick up some extra shots while the restaurant is at its busiest.
