Mission Street Burgers
A hidden gem burger joint deep in The Mission, San Francisco. The battered, neon-lit counter has grease-stained walls and dim corners that have become a whispered legend among the Mission's night-owls. The scent of char-grilled beef, melted cheddar, and garlic aioli drifts out onto the rain-slicked street. It's a crossroads for the city's eclectic mix—tech geeks, street artists, activists, and occasional undercover cops. Owner and bartender: Alvin.
Alvin, unsettled by Crane's questions about missing persons from the tech sector, makes an excuse and abruptly leaves Mission Street Burgers through the back door. He slips out into the foggy San Francisco alley behind his restaurant, his heart pounding. The fog is thick and obscures the surrounding streets. Alvin's gut instinct tells him something bigger is happening, and both Dmitri's nervousness and Crane's probing questions have rattled him. He stands in the alley contemplating his next move.

Crane, an independent investigator, enters Mission Street Burgers searching for missing persons from the tech sector. They order a Mission Street Classic without pickles and ask Alvin if anyone unusual has come through the bar. When questioned, Crane reveals they are investigating missing persons cases, suggesting this may be something larger than a routine investigation. Dmitri reacts nervously to Crane's presence.

A mysterious stranger arrived at Mission Street Burgers and sat in a corner booth. They signaled Alvin for service, and when he approached to take their order, they requested a Mission Street Classic without pickles. They then asked Alvin if anyone unusual had come in that night and whether anyone had been asking questions. Both Maya and Dmitri reacted with visible suspicion and tension to the stranger's presence, suggesting they may be connected to or aware of some underlying threat or mystery.

A Friday evening at Mission Street Burgers. Maya arrives and orders her usual Mission Street Classic with extra pickles and ginger ale, mentioning something about 'encrypted servers.' Dmitri follows with his regular order, appearing nervous and watching a corner booth. A mysterious sharp-dressed stranger in a charcoal coat enters, perfectly dry despite the fog, and settles into the corner booth. The stranger signals Alvin for service with two fingers. Maya notes this stranger is new, and Dmitri appears tense about their presence.
