Rumor has it Epilogue

The exciting conclusion to TeenagerGate:
This reporter has now seen the person called “Michelle.” She sat next to Mr. Eric Nies at the Texas Roadhouse while eating supper. No one thought at the time to ask her for some form of government-issued identification, but her appearance with Mr. Nies the next night at the Kari Hammer residence has quieted speculation that she was just some person paid by Mr. Nies to show up with him. (Although privately, some still believe this to be possible and cite the fact that Mr. Nies cancelled the two tickets he had acquired for the play on Sunday night as evidence that the ruse had become too expensive.) In another development, an amoeba-shaped mark has appeared on Mr. Nies’s neck halfway between his left ear and left shoulder. Mr. Nies has stated that it was razor burn but has refused our requests for him to submit to medical testing in order get a definitive answer. This reporter would like to continue investigating but has been reassigned to other stories. Apologies for not obtaining pictures. Maybe the writers at http://www.ericjnies.com will post some.
