How It All Goes Down

30 March

  • Leo has just arrived at Orphanage 80: the former home of the murdered boy.
  • After speaking with the orphanage director, Leo goes upstairs to talk to some of the older boys. He shows them "an album of photographs" and asks if any of these men have propositioned them for sex (3.27.32).
  • After an obligatory bribe, one kid points out a man. He's a doctor.
