The first bit was that Andrew was stable and being moved out of ICU. That intense moment of relief almost made up for the serious case of nerves I had about facing the Warren residents today. Which leads to the second bit of good news: we were allowed back over to the island, but we were to remain within the perimeter set up around the Warren. Teresa was smart enough to secure documentation that we four, plus Aaron, would be allowed to return to the observation tower at day’s end. Not that we didn’t trust the warden, or anything. We got no other information out of Hudson before we departed. “You’re need-to-know status, and I’ll tell you when I think you need to know something.” On the copter ride over, Teresa and Marco sat on opposite sides, peering intently out the windows. I could easily imagine what they were thinking as they watched the green expanse of Central Park grow larger with each passing second.
