When we last met our intrepid duo, Coop was in the washroom. Sarah was standing guard at the door. This was no ordinary washroom. It was a mens room. And not any ordinary mens' room. Not because it was clean, or had doilies, but because two men, who did not know each other were talking.
You. just. don't. do. that.
But, then again, Coop had a good reason. For the better part of the day, the pair had been looking into suspicions that the new Headmaster of the Monter School of Comedy (a performing arts school in Xomo Univeristy focusing on the aspects of humour in the arts) was using the school's underground magical knowledge for evil.
After attempting to interview Headmaster Joran, who would have out-sanguined the Lion King's Scar, Coop and Sarah discovered they were being followed.
They also discovered that, for a comedy school, it was very bleak and depressing.
So, the pair managed to corner the shadow in the mens' room. Where Coop was attempting to get information. Sarah was patiently standing guard.

" Look buddy, I'm starting to lose my patience here." Coop said to whoever was hiding in the stall. " Come out here and talk to us. Sarah," he called louder in the direction of the outside door, " do I have to keep it subtle in here if no one can see?"

Sarah grins at Coop's question and pops the door open just enough to reply "Just as long as you keep the noise level down, Coop." Chuckling, she lets the door close and waits for Coop to continue talking to whomever it was that had been watching them in the cafeteria.

(Coop)
There's a little whimper in the stall at the threat. "This just isn't fair. And I'm getting cramps. He always does this." In a more mournful tone, he says "Mark, get the books. Mark fix the books. MArk, follow those students." In his normal voice he continues. "I'm so tired of being a lackey. He promised me a spot in the circle and what does he do? Gives it to his proteges. They get to have their fun at the Dilemma, and here I am." He stops short.
(Sarah)
As she stands guard, she sees the protegés walking in their dark, trenchcoated clique, looking broody as they eye her on their way by.

" Well you're in the right hiding spot for cramps, Mark." Coop chuckled as he took in what the guy in stall was babbling. " Doesn't it feel better to let it out and stop bottling it up? Now why don't you come out here and just talk to us. Why did someone want you to follow us? And you can tell us a little more about these protoges."

(Coop)
"No." He says, sounding worried. "He'll find out I've spilled beans. My life's over. I'll never make the inner circle." And he starts sobbing.

As Sarah continues to wait as Coop talks to the boy in the bathroom, she nods with a polite smile at the students who pass by her.

Coop was starting to lose patience and took a step back. " You are starting to annoy me with this crap, Mark. I'm gonna give you until the count of three, and then I'm going to open the door for you. 1......., 2......., oh screw it" He brought his foot up and kicked the door, putting his full weight against the stall's lock.

Sarah, the crowd of proteges pause at the sound of the door getting kicked in.
Coop, you see the pudgy loosery guy cowering on the toilet.

Coop diverted his eyes from the guy on the toilet. " Now do I have to drag you out of there to get you to co-operate or are you willing to talk?"

Sarah smiles in what she hopes is a convincing manner, hiding the inward wince at the noise, hoping that Coop wasn't going to make too much of a racket in there.

Well, the protegés do not seem suitably convinced nothing was wrong, and they march past Sarah towards the bathroom.
All Coop sees is a loser of a man, huddled on the toilet. By the looks of things, Coop won't be getting much more out of him.

Sarah continues to smile politely at the group heading into the bathroom and calls out "Hi there!" in loud voice to try to alert Coop to the fact that he was going to have company.

" Oh crap." Hearing Sarah, Coop grabbed the door and pulled it shut, then stood close to it, trying to look concerned. " You sure you're gonna be okay in there?" He said loudly.

The group of protégés mostly go into the bathroom, with a pair also standing guard at the door, watching Sarah, with no concealment of their ogrishness. "Hello." One says with a grin. "Come here often?"
Inside, the 4 that went in look at Coop and one of them stops, keeping and eye on the rather large man. By the looks of things, the one watching Coop doesn’t really want to have to fight him on his own.
The three proceed to the stall, with two acting like guards to the last. The one resembling the pack leader opens the door, and looks in, snickering. "It’s just Marky mark." He says. "Hey, you know, you’re supposed to drop your pants in there. By the looks of things, it’s too late anyways." The lot of them in the room snicker.
The leader turns to Coop. "I bet this isn’t where you’re supposed to be."
