I went back to the meeting back at Susan's estate. Everyone was exhausted and desperate.
"We need to find A.M.," I say. "The real Architect to prove they framed Tony."
"How?" Timothy's frustrated. "We've been hunting the Commission for months. This person is better hidden than anyone we've faced."
"Then we think differently." I'm pacing. "What if A.M. isn't hiding because they're invisible? What if they're hiding in plain sight?"
Elliot's been going through Commission communications for hours. "Whoever this is has been involved for decades, but they've never communicated directly. Always through intermediaries."
"Margaret gave orders from higher up," I add. "Morrison referenced the board and Charles talked about investors. What if A.M. is all of those things? A legitimate businessperson we've overlooked?"
