Allow me to clarify: it was to avoid Nightmare's arrest. Everyone else either went underground or got arrested (such as you). There were... things going on in that Restaurant humanity is not ready to face. It is best that we allow that history to die.

If Nightmare's safety was guaranteed, how come the police broke into his house and ransacked the place while he was in hiding? If those guys were paid off, why did they take everything worth anything from that house? Nitey had to spend two years just working off the debts!
I think that there's a whole lot you aren't telling me, Konata.
No, don't try to feed anymore lies to me. There's only one reason you'd shut down a restaurant and try to get rid of all the traces in the way you did. I know that reason. And everything I saw, I have written down. I even have witnesses. If I ever go public, you'll be the first to fall.
