Daniel's pleasantly surprised to find that Nick's already waiting with coffee when he returns. One thumb worrying at an eye socket, he unlocks the car and climbs in. The tank is already full thanks to his compulsive tact the night before and he'll be starting the day off caffeinated, even if he's waking up at seven A.M. to do it. Not a bad start.

He takes an appreciative sip, as usual with absolutely no care for the heat, then nods to himself.

"All right, then. To New York we go."
