NEWS FROM CARTER'S:
Clint's friend George was at the shop today. He is desperate and needs a favor from Carter. He needs something notorized. Carter can't do this for him, but Carter's girlfriend Anna can because she works at the bank. Carter told George to come back in the next day or two (basically as soon as possible) with the documents he needs notorized and Carter will have Anna take care of it. Carter's thinking is that doing this favor for George will give him some "leverage." It kind of gives him a "one-up." He believes that once he has done this favor, George will be willing to do something for Carter in return. And all Carter wants is information about Clint. As much as we can possibly get at this time. George is very elusive and doesn't really like to talk, but this "favor" may prompt him to give us all the information we need; more information than he might have given otherwise. He may even be so grateful for Carter's help that he goes home and gets Clint to come down to the shop with him.
I know it's frustrating. When I heard this today...I thought to myself: "Why the hell can't he just ask George for the information when he's there?" But then I realize that Carter knows these guys way better than I do. He knows how they operate. I just have to trust that Carter knows the proper way to reach them and get the information we need. It's all going to happen...it's just a matter of when...to me, clearly, there is a timing issue with this whole story...things have to be done in their proper time...that's why my letter goes down to the shop the day after the last day Clint is seen for months...I am open to whatever the timing is supposed to be. Carter has proven that he has a strange unexplored "sixth sense" of some type. If we have to take this slowly...and patiently coax the information out of the boys...then so be it...the end result is still the same...we get what we want...it's just a matter of when...
