[ Matt has already spent a fair amount of time getting the small lay of the land in this store, but even if he hadn't ... things work in mysterious ways, including him. You know how it goes.
But he keeps his pace, doesn't speed up, doesn't make any strange moves that might give away what he does and doesn't know. When Wanda calls out a corner, he adjusts his pace to suit it, but he's always one or two steps behind. He's polite about it.
And when they finally make it into the backroom, she points out the stock, to which he replies with an acknowledgement: ]
Ah.
[ And then he gropes around for a spare seat — one of the cheap, plastic fold-up chairs — to settle in while he waits. ]
