AFF04 (Jan 10, 1996)
Summary of Receipt
44 confirms that Mr. Tormenta is responsible for this mess. He's from the Esterskald-Mayda Cusp Plane, and seems to have some sort of effect that brings about unusual weather readings, generally to help the planet out. So it's rather strange that he's causing chaos in Long Beach right now, and 44 suspects it may be that Satan and his allies are somehow controlling him.

Mr. Tormenta. That's our customer. Thankfully, this was a customer known to the Cafe and Diner. Though we've got a few issues we need to figure out. First off, it's a "Mr." Why would a Mr. want to order a cup of coffee from us during such strange and violent weather? Moreover, while we have Mr. Tormenta registered as a customer, he's never actually dined with the Cafe and Diner, and, in general, he's a rather… reclusive customer. He doesn't quite come in at 5 o'clock, but he also doesn't come in at 6 o'clock either. He's somewhere in between, perhaps around 5:30 or so. So, we have little info on him.
What we do know about Mr. Tormenta is that when he does visit the States, he often does so to help with weather forecasting. He particularly enjoys visiting during especially dry seasons in the winter or unbearably wet seasons in the summer. While he has been known to be a bit… mischievous, in general, he has been known to help those who help the planet. I suppose you could say he's a fan of Gore. Though he does spend a lot of time in the States, he tends to do so in secret, only visiting a few close and trusted family members.
And… that's kind of it. There's no known reason Mr. Tormenta would be overly demanding of a cup of coffee. Unless… unless Mr. Tormenta is being tormented. There is a strong possibility that Mr. Tormenta is being used somehow by Padre and his Dark Triad. That, or Padre Santos' recent proclamations of the evident end times in Long Beach, are purely opportunistic. Though, it sure does play nicely into his little Satanic Panic, doesn't it? I believe we should return to Mr. Tormenta and see if we can't take his order properly. While he isn't a fan of lemons, he is, by most accounts, a conversationalist. Though, we might need a Spanish translator.
