Winry ran down the hotel stairs, pulling on her jacket as she went. The weather outside was gorgeous and she didn't want to spend another afternoon inside. She'd left Ed and Al a note in the apartment, letting them know she was going for a walk, figuring if they wanted her, they'd contact her on her Eggplant Elite.

As she neared the last flight of stairs, she heard some sort of strange, buzzing noise. Her steps slowed, Winry not sure what might be waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

A small toy car crashed into the bottom of the staircase. Spinning its small toy wheels as it tried to push through the bottom stair. However, as its a small toy powered on a crappy battery, it just spun there helplessly.

The other sound was someone hitting a small plastic controller. That would be Clare trying to get the rc controller to actually send a signal. Clare had been attempting to get both the wireless camera and wireless control signals to work at once. It wasn't going well. The video kept cutting out, it would keep moving when she tried to get it to stop, turn seconds after she told it to turn.

"Unreliable," Clare said, putting the controller down to write notes down for her tests.

Winry climbed down the rest of the stairs, picking up the toy and turning it over in her hands. She glanced over at the young woman, not recognizing her. "Is this yours?"

Ziva walked into the lobby, planning on heading out into the city again to try to figure out where the barriers blocked the city. As she went through the room, she noticed a cart sitting out, covered in electronic equipment. It reminded her of something that McGee might put together when he was bored.

Distracted, she wandered over and started looking around, not actually messing with anything, but just looking to see what was there. It really was something that she would find in McGee's apartment.

She was just getting ready to leave again when she felt something hit her foot. Looking down, it was a small RC car, which was really strange. She stared at it for a moment, wondering who was controlling it.

Clare had been so focused on trying to get the camera on the small car to send a signal she forgot it was still moving until the picture came back to show a leg. "Oh!" Clare looked around until she spotted the car and ran over, "Sorry- It got away from me."

She was only a little intimidated, but then again most adults intimidated her here.

Ziva heard the voice and looked in the direction it was coming from. A girl ran over, carrying the control for the car. It really didn't bother Ziva, it was just surprising.

"It is not a problem." She replied. "Is all of this yours?" She motioned towards the cart, wondering now.
