What had happened out in the street was that Jack, before he went into the building opposite, had told his dad to wait there. And de1nitely not to go anywhere. More speci1cally, not into the building where the hostage drama was taking place. Just wait here, the son said.
But of course the father didn’t do that.
He took the pizzas and went up to the apartment, and when he came back down, he had spoken to the bank robber.
