Crime and Punishment: The finale (?)

If Phoenix could be pacing, he would be. As it is, he is drumming his fingers on the side counter again, waiting for word from Quinn. No pills; he wants to try and keep his brain straight, even though the pain is definitely getting to him and the nurses at the clinic clearly disapprove of this decision.

He wants this to be over with. Every minute Li is still being held by this guy creates another knot in his stomach, another thought to fret over. It's already established that this man is a pedophile and a potential murderer; he could do ANYTHING to Li and Phoenix wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

So he waits for Quinn. Quinn, who is currently tracking Li through his collar. He just prays they're not too late.
