“And I’m sorry I put slime in your hair. I was angry, and I wanted you to understand how frustrating your behavior had been. But I should have found a better way to deal with it.”

“You’re a lot tougher than you look.”
I smiled.
“Never judge a woman by the length of her hair.”
Harold chuckled.
“That sounds like something we should print on a T-shirt.”

Kelly returned a little later with a tablet.
She explained that she needed to record the incident and confirm that both passengers were willing to cooperate with the airline’s procedures.
She also asked whether Brittany still wanted the police to meet the aircraft after landing.
