She eventually finds him in the infirmary, staring at his paperwork. Still looking jittery, she notes, as he jumps out of his skin when she enters.
"Oh, hey Shufti. How's the arm?"
"Stopped hurting. Can I get the plaster off yet?"
"If you want, I'd give it a little bit longer though."
Shufti nods.
"Apparently you know something about what happened to Jools." She says.
Guppy nods and explains the story, much what she already knows. She watches how nervous he is.
"And what did he do to you?" she asks, when he's done.
Guppy hesitates, looking worried.
"Threatened to kill me." he says quietly. "But I can't tell you why because he'll kill me. He was deadly serious about it too, not one of those idle death threats like I get at work."
Shufti persists a while, but doesn't get much more out of him. Frustrating.
"I'll see what I can do. Try not to worry." she says eventually.
