Well, easy enough. Go to the bank, meet with the manager, request access to a specific time-period in a specific camera's arc. Explain that you're on a missing persons case and someone could be in serious danger.

Now hold on just a minute guys. How much of the park do the cameras actually cover? Considering that the Bank is open “at all hours,” we should stay here and capitalize on as much manual clue-finding time as we can. Stick to the outside-in approach; even if they were grabbed deeper in, and any clues found there could help point towards the “who,” a girl and her boss’s dog had to be removed from the park at a location, and is more likely to tell us the more important “where.”

May I ask for when the bank is next scheduled to open?

If it's no time soon you'll have to call someone to access the camera feeds, the goons here don't have the authority to give you what you need.

When you leave: thank you for your help and good luck to you! I hope you'll eventually encounter someone you're allowed to shoot.

Why do you have temporary guards? Did something happen to your regular guards? Do you not normally have guards, but there was some kind of incident?

Probably shouldn’t stick our noses into anything potentially dangerous to be privy to (like the prototype they mentioned) unless it’s plausibly related to the case. Just focus on getting the footage. If we have time to do one more thing and still grab a bite to eat, we should try talking to that fellow on the bench that’s been shown in the background for a couple panels. He’s in a central location, and doesn’t seem to move much.

Hey mudaki. I started asking around for your crap. I don't know if this can help or if it has any relation with your case, but it seems that Bu'ka was sent to the infirmary in the HOLE after an altercation with O'ta'ka and they had to change his cellmate. The one he killed, remember? Well it turns out that the Sh'baba killed a guy that was in a gang. I don't know which one yet. Maybe that can help?
In any case, you owe me one.

An update with the missus won’t hurt. Maybe ask more about the victim. And tell her that the sitter might have also been a victim in this kidnapping, potentially even the primary target, as we don’t see why she would suddenly drop off the face of the Galaxy after just a dognapping. Also prepare to head back to the park to actually do some first-hand clue-sniffing. Doesn’t matter how hard we follow the victim’s connections; we aren’t getting anywhere until we get some insight into the crime itself’s order of events. Don’t waste any effort; if nobody has received a ransom note, then time is probably not on our side.

If you can spare a few credits, do so (assuming that’s what the sign he put up is asking for). Then open with “Question.” So he at least knows you aren’t here to harass him before he has a chance to shut you out again. He’s probably had it rough from the folks around here. Ask if he saw anything... was it two days ago? Ask what he saw in the last two days. If he doesn’t give up anything useful, mention that you’re investigating the kidnapping of a dog sitter and the dog she was walking.
