A/N: you know I really don't know what to put here so just read!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lina sat in a bar all alone… she had searched for this guy everywhere but I'll she could find out was his name! 5:00 was slowly coming around and Lina just sat there with an empty beer mug in her hand.
Why didn't he tell me his brother was in jail! I would have understood! It isn't like I don't do bad things… and if he really was Dr. Detroit then was he using me! Was he going to ask me to be one of his prostitutes! Lina was very confused there was no way Elwood was a pimp! But she couldn't be sure…
Behind her she heard the bar TV showing how the cops arrested Elwood.
"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?" stood out over the news reporters voice. Lina slammed her head on the counter.
"Hey." A voice made Lina look up. "What can you do for $50?"
Lina's face turned red and she growled slightly but then became calm. "I can do this!" she took his $50 and punched him in the face knocking him to the floor. The bartender looked over and then went back to washing dishes.
"If only I could find this Dr. Detroit and show that Elwood is innocent!" Lina spoke out loud.
"You are looking for Dr. Detroit?" The bartender asked in a low voice.
"Yes…" Lina answered slowly.
"Well I know this girl who works for him… I can give you her address but you didn't get it from me!" he whispered to Lina as he gave her a card.
Lina thanked him and then ran out of the bar. She started heading for the address but felt that it was to late to investigate now so she went back to the apartment.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning Lina got up and showered. When she got out it was 1:00 so she figured this would be the perfect time to go to the address. She left the apartment went down the hall and out the front door.
She walked down the street and then looked at the address. This was all the way across town! She quickly decided to hail a taxi.
As she drove along she thought about Elwood… how he must feel like dirt right now… how all the other men must be being really mean to him because he's a pimp.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elwood sat in an empty cell. It was dark and surprisingly quiet. Elwood shivered as one of the men winked at him. He sat on his little bed and started to think about Lina… did she just run away and leave him to die in jail? Was she trying to help? Would she ever talk to him again for being a liar and a criminal? Soon Elwood fell into an uneasy sleep.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lina came to the address and stood on the front step… she was about to meet a prostitute… one of the very women she hated for being so fake and pretty.
She rang the doorbell and not long after it was answered by a beautiful girl.
"Can I help you?" she said sounding a little surprised that a girl was on her doorstep.
Lina cleared her throat to try and make it sound like she was sad. "Yes, I'm Lina Rithem I am looking for a man who goes by the name of Dr. Detroit?"
The girl bit her lip and thought for a second. "Why do you want to see him?"
"Because my… brother was put in jail because they thought he was him and I have got to get him out of there! He isn't very street smart and he is still afraid of the dark! He will be so terrified in there! I just got to get him out!" She said forcing a small tear.
The girl looked at Lina a sign of empathy crossed her face. "Ok, ok…" she grabbed some paper and a pen and started writing something down. "This is the address go here and explain your story, he will know what to do!"
"Thank you!" Lina sobbed as she took the address. She walked off the doorstep slowly until she heard the door close and the she bolted. The Address was only a few blocks away she could make it on foot!
Lina laughed at her own genius she had tricked many people before in her childhood but now that she was older she had thought she lost her touch. Clearly she hadn't!

Elwood sat on his bed again. There wasn't much to do in his cell. There were to beds, a toilet and a sink. Suddenly something slipped under the door. Elwood got off the bed and ran over to it. It was a letter from Lina! He opened it and started reading.
Dear Elwood,
I want you to know don't worry about a thing; I am tracking this Dr. Detroit sleez-bag now! I want you to know that I am not going to leave you in that jail cell! I talked to your brother… he seems nice. I should be able to see you by the end of today or tomorrow morning, I will try as soon as possible!
Lina Rithem!
Elwood smiled, she was thinking of him! He couldn't help but blush ever since Lina came around he had always felt better! Even in jail!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lina arrived at the home of Dr. Detroit. She walked up to the door and knocked on it. Old women came to the door.
"May I help you?" she said sweetly.
"Is this the home of Dr. Detroit!" Lina said surprised.
The old lady looked very confused. "Dr. who? I think you have the wrong house…""Oh mother I can handle this you go make some tea!" Said a man who looked an awful lot like Elwood only with seeing glasses.
"What are you doing here?" he whispered under his breath.
Lina frowned. "My friend got thrown in jail because he looks just like you!"
The man stood very quietly. "Oh dear…"
"Oh dear is right! You better find some way to get him out of this before I bring you into the cops!" Lina growled.
"Alright! Come in, come in!" He said nervously.
