you call up the station and check if they have the guy and the bombs in custody. they say no, tom hasnt come in yet. maybe something happened to him?
you contemplate calling in one of your tank girls to help you rob the bank, but in one of your rarer moments of clarity you realize that maybe its not that good of an idea and wouldnt really work
you mill about for a while and its approaching noontime. tom still hasnt come back, and the station says his car is parked somewhere near the edge of town. they're dispatching some officers to investigate.
its about the time the bank gets robbed, but you dont see anyone remotely suspicious around, nor any cars pull up nearby. most people coming in are pedestrians with nothing that would help them conceal any equipment they'd need to rob the bank.
