Summary
The information flows more slowly and gets more indecipherable as it becomes harder to find safe channels. Jack gets more and more frustrated with this game of penitentiary telephone, forced to take his own initiative more and more often. He wonders if it was ever any easier to get information to and from maximum security prison. Not for someone like Elias. They don't give his boss a television in his cell, even. Jack knows this because he ran an ad on the local public television channel for two weeks in code so simple a child could figure it out, his own decision, and not even a rebuke had come his way. He's flying solo, operating under a bond of trust only.

Summary
An aside to Sine Labore Nihil:
Harold isn't sure what he was expecting, he only knows that this isn't it. Maybe that John would come back injured and wild, or maybe that he would have regressed all the way back to his old self, lost in alcohol and untrusting. Instead what he gets back is still John, somehow - only clothed in a stinking, matted skeleton with resigned hollows around eyes that still spark life and a worn out and tired voice that still expresses him perfectly.
