At the same time Nero went around the Horseshoe Bathhouse asking attendants where he could find Madam Silvers. After asking everyone he stopped at the bar.
"Can I get you something?"
"Yeah, can you get me this Laady Silvers or whatever?"
"Who's that?"
"Exactly my problem. I know that Miss Lady Silvers runs this place but nobody seems to know who that is. I'm trying to free you guys. Why won't anybody help me?"
The bartender leaned in and whispered to Nero. "That's because we're not supposed to talk about her with anyone. Are you a Retainer?"
Nero smiled. "Basically."
"Basically. What does that mean?" The bartender backed away a little weary.
"Not important. What is important is that I am here to free you from your bondages."
"By yourself?"
"For someone in a pickle, you ask a lot of questions. Can you help me find her or do I need to resort to plan B?"
"What's plan B?"
Nero shrugged. "I don't know? Walking through the bathhouse screaming her name and kicking doors in. Wait she is here right?"
"Are you crazy? The catchers will kill you before you can get through the second door."
"So if I do that they'll come to me? Plan B it is. Mada...!"
The bartender put his hand over Nero's mouth. He frantically looked around and removed his hand. "Do you have a death wish?"
"Can you take me to Madam Silvers?"
"No, but I can tell you where her office is."
Nero clapped his hands together and grinned. "I would appreciate that."
