I take a few steps into the hall, peering down the steps, but whoever it is has disappeared.

I shake my head, then, starting down the stairs myself as I consider that this is certainly not a mark in the be-loyal-to-Hudson category.

Clearly, he's not being loyal to me-not even really pretending to be.
