Soon, Bridget finds Henry outside on the balcony or roof, I can't really tell, lurking in the shadows where he belongs. He fills her in on Gemma finding his key to the Dandridge. Bridget freaks, but Henry says, "Relax, I told her I go there to write." Bridget: "And she believed you?" Henry: "Well, it's the truth, sort of. I mean there's no affair anymore, right?" Bridget tries to leave, but Henry grabs her wrist and says, "Just tell me, what did I do wrong?" Um, I'm going to go with, "You were yourself." Bridget can't even bother to reply, because she notices blood underneath the corner of Dead Guy's trunk. She blurts, "Excuse me," runs back into the main room, grabs a napkin and starts wiping it up. People in the show thread talk about how long a body will bleed out and shouldn't Dead Guy be past that and they're getting science all over my Soap and they should just STOP IT! This is not Mr. Wizard. This is "Buffy Plays Twins In a Nighttime Soap with Richard Alpert and Ioan Gruffudd."
As poor Bridget is scrubbing furiously at the blood, a male hand taps her on the shoulder and we hear Agent Machado say, "Mrs. Martin?" I don't even know where she puts the bloody napkin. Maybe she stuffed it under the trunk? He apologizes for crashing but she's tough to pin down. He helps himself to some hors d'oeuvres and asks if they can talk. On the roof, Victor starts giving Bridget the building history (first a cannery then a department store). He then lets her know he knows she just fired one contractor and hired another. Bridget: "What are you getting at?" Victor: "Well, call me crazy, but I think there's a reason you're keeping people out of this place." Bridget and Me: "Last time I checked there were over a hundred people inside." Victor: "Tonight, maybe, sure, but any other night..." This is a little dumb, if you ask me. I mean, I know he's just trying to unsettle her and see what he can shake out, but he's tried to get in once, and she was leaving. She didn't want to let him use her bathroom. That's not keeping "people" out any other night. Just sayin'...
