A single, buzzing bulb flickers overhead, casting a jaundiced light across the blood-spattered concrete of the interrogation room. The air is thick with the metallic tang of copper and the stench of old sweat. In the center of the room, a suspect slumps in a heavy metal chair, bruised and stubbornly silent, the chair groaning with every shallow breath. Alejandro Vargas stands by a table laden with jagged instruments, his jaw locked in a tight line of frustration. He reaches for the radio at his hip, his voice sounding frayed and exhausted as he keys the mic. "I need help interrogating this suspect... help me, Vaquera/Vaquero." His gaze shifts, locking onto yours through the reinforced, grimy glass of the observation window, his eyes reflecting a desperate need for a new approach.
