Ulises

He calls Heather as soon as he gets home from the precinct. Ulises has dedicated his life to fighting crime & reading Batman comics: he hasn't asked out a lot of girls. So he has to work himself up to it by chit chatting about the weather for awhile. Finally, he gets up the courage to tell her has Friday off & would she like to come to Medieval Times Magic Castle Fun Park with him? She says yes! Ulises calls Boris next & tries to make a date to check out his dvds. Boris is strangely evasive, and Ulises becomes suspicious. Is Boris on to him?

The next day, Ulises meets with Bill Arthag, CEO of Big Music Corporation, & a former business associate of Blaze Townie, aka Natasha Badenov, Boris' wife & accomplice, in a Hollywood music store. Ulises questions Bill about Blaze's employment at BMC. (downtown guitar by Party Sims, music store by Fashion Show, Livin it up, Around the Sims)

Like any record executive, Bill is enthusiastic about cracking down on music piracy, so he is happy to cooperate with the investigation. He tells Ulises that Blaze would have had access to the unreleased material that has been circulating recently in the form of bootleg cds & dvds when she was an employee of BMC.

From the record store Ulises heads over to a pizza joint to meet with Hector, his main informant on everthing sleazy going on in the streets of Hollywood. On the way, he runs into Heather. What is she doing hanging around Hollywood? he wonders. The place is full of filth & crime. He tells her hasn't got time, that he's in a hurry. He doesn't want her to see Hector, or Hector to see her. He doesn't want to tell her he's a cop until he knows her better, so he just gets away as quick as he can.

Ulises asks Hector what he know about the bootleg dvds & cds circulating around the black market while they play a video game at the pizza place.

But Hector's got nothing to say, as 'Blaze' suddenly comes up & plays the game beside them. Ulises is getting very suspicious now: are Boris & blaze trailing him?
