He'd anticipated that shift in tone, Alex's abrupt and immediate suspicion, but he still winces a bit as he hears it in her voice. "I've told you before about the Darrow History exhibit at work," he says, keeping his focus on the wall. "How there's always something that means it's closed, or shut down, or...any number of things. Remodeling the exhibit cases. Burst pipes, electrical problems. Hell, one day I was told someone rented it for a wedding reception."
He can feel the narrow, suspicious gaze of Alex's eyes at the corner of his vision, and he sighs. "No one I know has ever been inside that exhibit hall. Ever. And with everyone gone...it seems like an opportunity to get through those doors."
