Bob makes an attempt at watching another movie by himself, but he doesn't pick a good one, or it isn't as enjoyable without another person in the room, or he just isn't in the mood anymore. He stops halfway through and drifts out to see what else there is in the tower that he didn't pay attention to on the tour.
There's a lot, actually, but most of it makes him feel twitchy and unhappy, so he winds up retreating to the too-clean suite of rooms assigned to him. This time it's not quite as bad, since the bed is stripped, he leaves his shoes in the middle of the room, and hangs a towel over the back of a chair after a shower of his own. Now it's not quite so clean and neat, and it's a bit more bearable.
When Yelena finds him, he's in new clothes, still ill-fitting but slightly neater than his sweater and corderouy from the day before, borrowed from Bruce Banner's closet. He was doodling in the zen garden with a finger, a book from Banner's bookshelf sitting on the table, but he gets up with relief at the sound of a knock. It's probably Yelena. Alexei already tried knocking once, and he sounded much different, plus he yelled through the door, so Bob could pretend he wasn't there so he didn't have to deal with the strange, big, loud man. And he doesn't think anyone else really wants to deal with him yet.
