Meanwhile, back in my apartment

(present day)
Jenny and I talked about one thing and another. A lot had happened while I had been laid up in the bodyshop. The party over head continued nonstop. If anything it had gotten louder.
“I noticed something rather odd.” I casually mentioned to her.
“What would that be sir?” she replied.
“When I stabbed the mugger in the throat with that tiny push dagger you made for me, he clasped his hands around it, naturally, but I could swear that I saw smoke coming from between his fingers. Would you know anything about that?” I asked "Thanks for the little dagger by the way. It, and therefore YOU, probably saved my life.”
“Just doing my job Sir.” She said.
“Well?” I persisted.
“Well what Sir?” she acted innocent.
“Do you know anything about it?” I persisted.
“Yes Sir” She replied.
“Why are you being like this?_” I asked.
“What you don’t know you can’t tell....Sir.” she said.
“Tell who?” I asked
There came a knock on the door about then. A voice, barely heard over the din overhead screamed. "Police! Open Up!”
The overhead wire mounted servo unit slid to a corner of the room. It struck a pose, and changed colors to become an amazing imitation of a potted plant. Some kind of fern maybe or a yucca? What ever it was supposed to be it looked real.
Jenny vanished. The computer screen was blank too.
“Hold your horses!” I said "I’m coming”.
