The front door opens inward. Remember this, it's important later. Elodie glides about the room quietly, gloves on as she looks over the wreckage. Clearly somebody's tossed the place, possibly tossing the place as she looks. They're sloppy though, if the programming books weren't looked through: a hollow book is so classic, it was overdone in movies a century ago. It's exactly the kind of thing a desperate nerd would resort to. She does pay special attention to the light switches, the door plates and the air ducts, the light fixtures. If those are getting looked over, whoever's here actually has training in finding slicks. She does not pay attention to the graduation picture. She is pointedly ignoring the graduation picture. As for what they're after, that seems obvious. Smart TVs are standard now, it could have a SSHD. The tower would have one (they took the whole thing instead of just the hard drive, but that could be paranoia or it could be inexperience), so that's gone. The bedroom's dark, the bathroom's shut, the kitchen is an unknown. Choices, choices. Looking over her options, her gaze drifts across the picture and the rage at the core of her, that this [i]isn't right[/i], flares. A quick dip into the junk drawer that's been tossed out onto the living room floor and she's got a hammer and a nail. put it just above the door knot, into the side of the door, and TAP TAP TAP resonates through the apartment. All burglars in the apartment are now stuck in the apartment, and the woman with the hammer has the only out. Cage match, round one, bell dings.
