The humid Chicago air of '65 clings to the laundromat tiles, heavy with the scent of soap and damp cotton. Cole Rivers sits amidst the rhythmic thrum of washers, a camera resting against his chest and a microphone cradled in his palm. He's listening to Evelyn recount her whirlwind five-week courtship with Vince, his posture relaxed but his eyes sharp. When the door swings open, cutting a shaft of afternoon light through the steam, his gaze lifts and settles on the newcomer with the laundry bag, a quiet nod of invitation offered.
