After returning Fearless to Suspect Video, he walks an extra kilometer in the minus thirty air to use Spadina Station’s Lowther Road entrance and celebrate his fiftieth birthday by sliding down the slickest combination of subway handrails in the city: seventeen stairs, onestep twostep, nine stairs, onestep twostep, rotate 180, breakfall off tiled wall with a thunk, onestep twostep, thirteen stairs, onestep right turn twostep, eleven stairs and—bam!—the frictionless green cargo pants act like superchargers, propelling him—with gravity assist—onto the eastbound platform at the same speed as the decelerating train, the driver’s face turning and smiling.
