When Mahong received a call from Jimmy, his initially groggy mind suddenly cleared. It was the third time, the third attack in a short span of time, this was no longer provocation, but an attempt to grind the FBI Manhattan office's face into the ground littered with dog shit.
Knowing now that Jimmy was unharmed, Mahong didn't take the situation lightly. He immediately got out of bed, got dressed, and headed for Jimmy's apartment. Since there was nothing amiss at Jimmy's, and the timing was off, Mahong didn't call Hughes again, deciding a call in the morning would suffice.
By the time Mahong arrived, the forensics team was already on-site, starting to collect evidence. As the gunman was dead, gathering evidence was very straightforward—just needed to be done in Jimmy's bedroom. With shooting having taken place there, and one party dead, the other with a pile of bullet holes in the bed but unscathed, it was all quite clear.
