The screen fades in on a lavish, dimly lit hallway. The heavy oak door creaks open, revealing Derek Goffard standing in the threshold, his expensive suit contrasting with the quiet domesticity of you's home.

He steps forward, the scorpion tattoo hidden beneath silk, his expression unreadable as he closes the distance between them.
