Recruited by Postmartin, Harold felt compelled to give Leo a complete and exhaustive -- emphasis on exhaustive -- history of the Isaacs. While Leo did well in his university science classes, he'd never really paid attention to the history or
who did
what beyond remembering the odd last name when attached to a law. So when he initially appeared to have no idea about whom Isaac Newton was, Postmartin was apoplectic. "Is that the sort of education do they give you down at City these days," he managed angrily over his pint before continuing.

The weeks zipped by, and now it was time for DC Arden to assist on his first official SAU case rather than just shadowing Peter and Sahra and hitting the Folly's libraries. He looked into the mirror, smiled nervously, adjusted his tie self-consciously before slipping on his jacket. He patted his suit jacket pockets -- phone battery in one and the phone in the other -- and headed downstairs, checking his inexpensive Timex self-winding watch that he buys by the case at Goblin Markets.

As he zipped across the atrium, he offered his hand to Izzy. "DC Cooper," he said, smiling warmly at his fellow student. "It's a pleasure to see you again."
"You know, I thought Molly would have gone all out with a full breakfast spread for our newest addition and our first
official case."
Then to Des, he offered his hand, "DC Leo Dansby. I don't believe I've had the pleasure..."
