State of Alert at Bay Street Rehab

Remember Flip? He works with Swiss Hero and his nickname is not just a clever name? Well that guy - known to have ratted on his ex-girlfriend who was an illegal Irish immigrant and gotten her deported - well him, just got fired.
Before leaving, he gave Swiss Hero hell one last time to the point that he got her blood boiling with rage. But she stayed cool. (Thanks to GET A GRIP) He also came back to the office at night and stole pretty much everything of value: computer, scanner, camera, projector. (Check e-Bay. You might get a good deal on any of these items.)
When Swiss Hero first moved in the rehab center, Flip had given her his old TV (the cube: 19"x19"x19" - 900lb), his old vacuum cleaner (the balloon lady downstairs calls it the monster...), a kitchen table and two chairs. Swiss Hero could not say "no" because you just don't say "no" to Flip unless you want to see the flip side...
Thus the state of alert. Flip probably wants his stuff back. Flip has a gun. Flip lives 3 streets down the road. Flip is upset.
Swiss Hero called an emergency meeting with Balloon Lady, drew a portrait and detailed description of the threat and sealed a pact of protection.
Swiss Hero is on her guard. She is sitting at home when she hears someone pounding not at the front door, but on the back door. She nearly faints. She works up her courage and asks "who is it...?" It's Balloon Lady. She is locked out. She needs to get through Swiss Hero's apartment to get to hers.
Later on, another knock on the door, but on the front door this time. After another hear attack, Swiss Hero answers the door. Balloon Lady needs a ride in the Swiss-mobile.
To be continued...
