Re: January 12 - Milano - La Scala
Luisa sighs and answers in a low voice, almost in a whisper.
"He is one of the patrons. But it is better that you stay away from him. We are living in difficult times and the theater has had financial difficulties. For this La Scala has had to seek funding from unusual patrons."
The woman says nothing more, clearly implying that she doesn't want to get into trouble.

"We know he operated on Conti and Virginia," says Felicity, "and we suspect he had something to do with Caterina's disappearance. Please, if you tell us what you know, you could help us find her."

"Please, signora," Archie added. Then moving closer, he surreptitiously slipped a generous number of the bills he had changed into local currency at the hotel.

Luisa ask the group to help her taking one of the mannequins out of the studio, with an excuse. She is unwilling to talk with the other two women nearby. Even when the group is out, she is hesitant. She is tempted to accept the money, but then retracts and asks for more. Eventually the investigators are forced to give up almost everything they have in their pockets. She is visibly scared as she speaks.
"Faccia is a doctor from a wealthy Milanese family, but he´s also the leader of a gang of local criminals. In the last days before Caterina´s disappearance, that Faccia was sticking around here in the theater during rehearsals. He seemed to be up to something. There was another guy with him. Another patron. He looks foreigner. Arabian... maybe Turk... One evening, while I was tidying things up in the storeroom, I heard Faccia talking to someone in the corridor. He said he'll take care of Spinola. Then he left with the other person. I couln´t see who he or she was. But when I read about the unionist in the newspaper, I really felt bad. If you go to the police with this story, I will deny everything and tell them you guys are liars."

Clarence waggles his eyebrows knowingly.
“Please don’t worry; whatever you tell us will go no further.”

At the mention of the Turk, Andrew leans in towards the woman, fixing her with an unflinching gaze. 'Please think very carefully when you answer, this Turk, did he look like...' and Andrew describes Makyrat and his doppelgangers.

"Your secret is safe with us," says Felicity. She isn't exactly known for her discretion, but in this case she'll make sure she keeps it quiet. "Where does Dr. Faccia have his practice? And where does he live?"

Re: January 12 - Milano - La Scala
The woman does not have a very detailed recollection of the foreigner's features
"Moorish skin, thick moustache... yes, it could be him, even if these rude people from Middle East... they all look a bit alike... to my eyes, at least."
Turning to Felicity
"Faccia is one of the senior hospital's chief physicians, although he hasn't operated frequently in recent years. Mostly, he assists and teaches young surgeons. His house is on Via Gesù, a street located in the city center, between via Monte Napoleone and via della Spiga. "
She looks at the wristwatch.
"Anyway, in less than an hour you'll find him here for the premiere. Patrons usually come early for an aperitif before the show."

"Thank you, we'll have to meet him then," says Felicity. "We'll be attending as well. That reminds me, I need to change my clothes for it!"

“We’re going to busy with those aperitifs!” Clarence remarks. He thanks Luisa for her help, setting the mannequin down as per instructions.
“Madame, is it black tie? Should we change before the show?”

"Of course it is black tie, sir."

Scoffing at Clarence, Andrew remarks, 'The question is not whether it is black tie old boy. It's whether it's white tie!'
