Numerous people wonder around New York’s famous park. Central Park is one of the world’s most famous tourist attractions.

The smile soon vanished from John Stewart’s face. There was no trace of ambiguity.

“Do what is right,” John said to Phillip Simons, “not what is easy.”

All voices, regardless of the message, deserve an audience.

John and Phillip, a quick brisk pace, exit Central Park. They ignore everyone around them.

“It is my understanding D.C.I. Ed Hopkins is in New York,” speaking with his friend, Phillip told John. “His reason for being here is unknown.”

John smiles his usual smile.
