He steps into the coffee shop, and heads up to the counter to ask, since he's been in here with Ted countless times.
"Hey Carla, were you working yesterday? Did you see Ted?" he asks. He only knows the barista's name because Ted would say it out loud all the time.
"Yeah? He came in like he usually does. Not as chipper though. Don't blame him after that match," she answers, but is obviously confused and surprised by the question.
"Did he say whether he was going somewhere or doing anything?"
"He was heading to the bakery."
"Alright, thanks," Beard answers, turning back to Joan and nodding in the direction they should go.
