I have some news. Information. Whoever's been doing all this stuff to you and then dumping you in our city, they weren't so tidy this time. One of the nurses actually stopped and saluted a camera. I'll let you decide how to feel about that, but on my side, I'd call it a dick move.

Anyway, it means I caught his face enough to run recog, finally. They definitely know, though, because I've been barely managing to chase his info down before it's wiped. Which is also why I don't think we have time to waste, so I'm not waiting on preparing an established agent.

I'm sending his address through now. Let me know if you're following it. I'll watch your back. Literally.

You're good at getting answers out of people?

[ SKEPTICISM........ ]

Yes, I am trained professional. I assisted with police investigations.

How did you assist, exactly?

[ Can't really see him as "bad cop" in these scenarios. ]

Hostage negotiation, crime scene investigation, in-field forensics, interrogation, infiltration, performing raids like these... I did whatever was required of me.

Am I going to be asked to upload a resume next?

No, it's more like...there's assistance, and there's "assistance."

Like "I'm the best at what I do but what I do isn't very nice" kind of assistance.

...I'm not the one who originally said that, obviously. I was just curious which kind it was.

I'm not going to break anyone's fingers, if that's what you're asking.

I had trouble picturing you as that sort of guy anyway.

You did? We hardly know each other, Scott, but it is heartening to know you wouldn't immediately think of me in a poor light.

There are envelopes I'm willing to push to forward my investigations - within lawful parameters, of course.

On occasion I manage to be a good judge of character.

And you are a cop, after all.

There are police officers who are a poor fit for active duty, but I try not to be one of them.

Thanks.

And you were successful most of the time?

I always accomplish my mission.

(smirks to himself... like a fucking loser...)

My success rate wasn't high because I didn't want it to be. It's complicated - but I assure you I was designed for the task.

Do you think you could partner with Marcos? He has an ability that could make it easier for you to get some answers from him.

[ without anyone have to break bones ]

Of course, Marcos' ability is an asset considering appealing to the man's humanity is a long shot. The more obscene the crime, the more tight-lipped the accessory to it is going to be.

I'm speaking with him now, so I'll make my willingness to work with him on this clear.

Thanks. Meet us at the exit. Clarke and I will be ready.
