Sue notices the sound of the slap across the room. Ibn-whats-his-name tries to play the rich fool who tried something and got slapped for his trouble

::Ibn's dancing with another woman, but he keeps peering in your direction. He's curious.::

Sue tries to duck the gaze. She has enough on her plate without Bat family politics. She doesn't know what would be worse though - him at the Grayson table, Diana's table, Bruce's table, or her and Ted's table.

She hopes they just sit him by a supermodel instead; where the kid can be charming at a distance.

*Jefferson, too, is captivated by the mysterious young man -- although he's unaware of the connection to the Bat.*

"It's funny," he says in low, conspiratorial tones. "If he's Talia Head's brother, I wonder why we never heard her daddy had a nother kid?"

[mrs_dibny]

Sue shakes her head. When she's sure she's not in direct earshot of others, her voice becomes a sharp, low hiss. "Jeff, that kid - unless he's on the list, you don't want to know right now. Neither does Ted. I'm 99% certain that is *not* Talia Head's brother. Do not under *any* circumstances have him recruited!"

[mrpierce2u]

*Jeff just nods. He takes Sue's word very seriously.*

You ever just look at someone and know they're gonna turn over a lot of apple carts before they're done?

[mrs_dibny]

Her voice drips with sarcasm. "Everytime Bruce smiles. So who do you have us by?"

[mrpierce2u]

Well ... Jordan did the arrangements, and there's certain things I didn't know and certain things I couldn't tell him ...

*He takes a deep breath.*

It's us three, Jordan, Lucius Fox and that girl on his arm ...

and Bruce.

[mrs_dibny]

"Well, on the bright side, Lucius and Jordan should be able to shop talk with Ted. I'll take care of Sir Bruce. Who's the girl?"

[mrpierce2u]

Some techie whiz kid from Wayne Industries. I think Lucius is trying to sell Bruce on some new product.

Jordan's an interesting cat. Used to work for Wayne Industries. Knew Bruce's father real well.

[mrs_dibny]

"Then Bruce will probably be particularly obnoxious, but less pointed." she nods. I'm starved and the kid is sitting on my baldder. The Ladies room has a nice setee. When's the round two?" she says pointing to the catering staff.

[mrpierce2u]

Looks like they're getting readyto serve. I imagine they'll get rolling any minute.
