"WELL, SINCE THEY'RE NOT HERE ALREADY, I THINK WE HAVE TO" "ASSUME THAT JESSE WAS RIGHT ABOUT TONI AND SHE'S JUST AN" "INNOCENT VICTIM IN ALL THIS." "YEAH, WITH THE GUTS NOT TO SAVE HERSELF BY TELLING THE GSA" "ABOUT THE APPLICATION, AT LEAST NOT YET." "NOT TO SAY THE GSA WON'T FIND IT SOON ENOUGH ON THEIR OWN." "YEAH."

"SO TONI'S OKAY?" "WELL, YEAH, I MEAN SHE SEEMS FINE." "YEAH, WELL RIGHT NOW WE'VE GOT TO FOCUS ON RETRIEVING THE MICRODRIVE." "ASSUMING THAT IT'S STILL INTACT." "LOOK, THERE'S A FIFTY-FIFTY CHANCE THAT BRENNAN'S" "WE COULD BE TALKING ABOUT A WILD GOOSE CHASE HERE FOR NOTHING." "YEAH, AND WE COULD ALSO BE TALKING ABOUT THE OTHER FIFTY " "THE SCENARIO THAT SAYS THAT HE DIDN'T FRY IT" " AND OUR GOOSE IS COOKED."

"HEY, ADAM, IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYBODY WENT HOME FOR THE NIGHT." "BRENNAN'S RIGHT." "I DON'T HEAR ANYBODY INSIDE." "ALRIGHT, THEN IT'S A SIMPLE MATTER." "YOU GO IN, GRAB THE MICRODRIVE AND GET OUT OF THERE." "ADAM, EVERYTHING'S GONE." "THE ONLY THING LEFT IS AN ESPRESSO MAKER." "THEN THEY'VE TAKEN EVERYTHING OVER TO GENOMEX FOR AN INVENTORY." "AND THE GSA IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO FINDING OUR SANCTUARY." "ALL RIGHT, BRENNAN, RIGHT NOW THERE ARE TWO POSSIBILITIES." "EITHER YOU ACCIDENTALLY FRIED THE MAPPING SOFTWARE" "IN THE FIRST PLACE." "OR THE GSA HAS IT AND THEY DON'T KNOW THEY HAVE IT." "EXACTLY." "GREAT, SO WE'RE RIGHT BACK WHERE WE STARTED." "ONLY NOW WE HAVE TO BREAK INTO THE GSA TO GET THE SOFTWARE" "AND RESCUE TONI." "IT'S A GOOD THING I'VE GOT A LITTLE EXPERIENCE IN BREAKING IN." "YEAH, BUT AFTER OUR FAILURES WITH THE VIRTUAL BREAK-INS," "WE HAVE TO TOTALLY RETHINK OUR STRATEGY." "YEAH, REALLY." "IF THERE'S ONE THING WE LEARNED FROM THAT DAMN EXERCISE IT'S" "THAT JUST BARGING IN ISN'T GOING TO WORK." "PLUS, WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE THAT ECKHART DOESN'T KNOW THAT" "WE'RE AFTER THE MICRODRIVE IN CASE WE GET IN THERE AND WE" "CAN'T FIND IT." "MAN, YOU KNOW, I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE INTRODUCED JESSE TO TONI." "NOW THAT WE'VE GOT ALL OF YOUR STUFF HERE," "COULD WE PICK IT UP A LITTLE?" "I JUST KIND OF FIGURED YOU'D BRING ME TO THE DATA DIVE" "INSTEAD OF BRINGING THE DATA DIVE HERE." "GET REAL." "I BENT OVER BACKWARDS TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF" "YOUR MACHINES WERE HERE."

"I DON'T KNOW." "MAYBE..." "WELL, IF SHE'S ECKHART'S PRISONER, WE SHOULD HAVE HER CRACK" "THE GENOMEX COMPUTERYSTEM AND HAVE HER CAUSE THEM AS MUCH" "AGGRAVATION AS SHE'S CAUSED US." "YOU KNOW, IT IS A THOUGHT." "ECKHART'S GOT HER WORKING ON CRACKING PROXY BLUE'S FIREWALLS" "SO THEY CAN CREATE THEIR OWN VERSION."

"MOTION DETECTORS I WASN'T AWARE OF, HIDDEN CAMERAS." "ALL I KNOW IS WE BETTER COME UP WITH A BETTER GAME PLAN OR" "ELSE TONI'S DOOMED AND WE'RE FINISHED." "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" "OH, I WAS..." "I WAS JUST STRETCHING MY LEGS." "WE SEEM TO MAKE MISS QUINTANA NERVOUS." "WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO SHOW US, TONI?" "YOU KNOW, I STILL NEED A LITTLE MORE TIME." "YOU COULD HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FUTURE WORKING FOR US HERE." "OR THAT FUTURE COULD BE SHORT, SWIFT AND BRUTALLY FINAL." "IT'S UP TO YOU." "WE'RE STILL PLAYING VIRTUAL GAMES HERE WHILE TONI'S" "WE ARE ALL FRUSTRATED, JESSE, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE CAN" "GO IN WITH OUR EYES CLOSED." "TONI IS NOT A HERO." "WE HAVE TO GET IN THERE AND GET HER OUT." "YES, BUT LIKE ADAM SAYS, NOW THAT WE KNOW GOING IN SOFT AND" "SNEAKY WITHOUT BEING READY TO KICK SERIOUS ASS" "ISN'T THE ANSWER EITHER." "ADAM?" "HEY, HEY, HEY." "HOLD ON, YOU TWO." "NOW, WHAT WE'VE GOT TO DO IS WE'VE GOT TO FIND A WHOLE NEW" "WAY OF THINKING ABOUT HOW TO INVADE ECKHART'S WORLD." "NOW, THEIR GREATEST WEAKNESS IS ECKHART'S BULLYING" "SHALIMAR'S RECKLESSNESS PLAYING POKER, WHAT WE'RE TALKING" "ABOUT IS USING THE GSA'S VULNERABILITY AGAINST THEM." "ASSUMPTION THAT MIGHT MAKES RIGHT." "WHEN IN FACT MIGHT IN THEIR CASE MEANS ARROGANCE," "OVERCONFIDENCE AND SMUGNESS." "SO WE'RE GOING TO USE THEIR WEAKNESS AS OUR SECRET WEAPON." "THIS IS PROXY BLUE'S TAKE ON OUR ROUND-UP LAST WEEK." "REMEMBER WHEN YOU THOUGHT JUSTICE," "FREEDOM AND DUE PROCESS WERE REAL?" "THE FAMILY OF FIVE THAT DISAPPEARED FROM THEIR HOME LAST" "WEEK MUST HAVE LEARNED THOSE IDEALS WERE JUST ILLUSIONS." "AND THIS IS OURS." "WE'VE ALL BEEN LEFT IN THE LURCH AT ONE TIME OR OTHER." "BUT THOSE PEOPLE WHO TOOK OFF LAST WEEK DEFINITELY HAD" "SOMETHING TO HIDE." "SAME STORY WITH AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SPIN." "I LOVE THE FACT THAT IT SUBTLY BLAMES THE VICTIM." "I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT LIKE THAT, SIR." "AND WHILE THE ORIGINAL ENCOURAGES SKEPTICISM," "OURS RAISES DOUBTS ABOUT THE MEANING OF REALITY ITSELF." "JUST ANOTHER KIND OF SOCIAL ENGINEERING." "NICELY DONE, MISS MACEVOY." "AND WE OWE ALL THIS TO MISS QUINTANA HERE." "ABSOLUTELY, MR ECKHART." "I TOLD YOU SHE WAS A GENIUS." "FOR WHAT?" "ADAM." "I OWE YOU AN APOLOGY." "WELL, I'VE BEEN ACTING LIKE TONI'S A VICTIM IN ALL THIS." "BUT I HAVE TO FACE THE FACT THAT SHE'S THE ONE WHO GOT US" "INTO ALL THIS HOT WATER IN THE FIRST PLACE." "RIGHT." "AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT I REGRET THAT WE DIDN'T TRY" "TO RESCUE HER SOONER." "YOU KNOW, RIGHT AFTER SHE GOT INCARCERATED," "AND DEALT WITH THE OTHER PROBLEMS LATER." "THANK YOU." "BUT SHE OWES US AN APOLOGY," "TOO, FOR TRYING TO CRACK OUR SYSTEM." "HEY, ADAM." "I'VE GOT A REALLY WEIRD PROXY BLUE THING OVER HERE." "SO THE TRUTH IS OUT, AND I'M NOT ANGRY, I'M JUST HURT." "THE LOSER WHO CALLED IN THE STORY ON THIS WHITE-HAIRED" "MASTERMIND TURNS OUT TO BE A HOPELESS DOPE FIEND." "JUST THE RIGHT TONE." "WHO REALLY OWNS YOUR THOUGHTS, YOUR FEELINGS, YOUR IDEAS?" "REALITY IS YOURS TO MAKE, SO MAKE IT RIGHT." "IT'S A LITTLE SNIDE, A BIT SNARKY," "BUT WITH OUR SPIN ON REALITY." "SO, NOW WE HAVE OUR PERFECT REPLACEMENT." "WHEN IS THIS LITTLE GENIUS OF YOURS GOING TO FIND THE REAL" "THING SO WE CAN PUT AN END TO THIS PROBLEM ONCE AND FOR ALL?" "WE'LL GET TO THAT EVENTUALLY." "EVENTUALLY?" "I'LL HAVE TONI WORK ON IT UNTIL WE FIND THE REAL PROXY BLUE WEBSITE." "BUT MEANWHILE, WE DON'T HAVE TO WAIT." "TONI'S PROGRAMMED OUR VERSION OF PROXY BLUE TO FUNCTION AS A VIRUS."

"IT'S ALWAYS SEEMED TO ME THE BEST WAY TO GET AHEAD IS TO" "KNOW YOUR OPPONENT'S WEAKNESSES." "SO, EVEN IF THEY TURN ON THE REAL THING," "THEY END UP GETTING OUR VERSION OF THE STORY." "AND THAT'S HOW YOU GET THE MASSES TO BUY THE TRUTH AS WE SEE IT." "IT'S ALWAYS SEEMED TO ME THE BEST WAY TO GET AHEAD IS TO" "KNOW YOUR OPPONENT'S WEAKNESSES."

"OKAY, BUT THERE ARE ONLY EIGHT SQUARES ACROSS A CHESS BOARD." "SO WHAT DOES BLACK QUEEN'S TEN MEAN?" "BLACK QUEEN'S TEN, BLACK QUEEN'S..." "TEN." "WELL, THE SECURITY FORCES AT GENOMEX CHANGE SHIFTS" "EVERY DAY AT TEN O'CLOCK." "MAYBE SHE'S TRYING TO TELL US THAT THAT'S THE BEST TIME" "TO MAKE OUR MOVE."

"I'M GOING TO SEND ECKHART A LITTLE MESSAGE OF MY OWN." "WELL, I'VE CHECKED OUT THE SYSTEM AND TONI'S MADE SURE THAT" "WHAT SHE PULLED WON'T EVER HAPPEN AGAIN." "AND NOW THAT I KNOW HOW SKILLED SHE IS, I'VE ASKED HER TO DO" "A SECURITY CLEARANCE FOR EVERY SAFEHOUSE ACROSS THE COUNTRY." "YOU'RE PUTTING HER INTO THE UNDERGROUND?" "WELL, YEAH, BUT RATHER THAN GET HER OUT OF TOWN" "PERMANENTLY, WE'RE GOING TO KEEP HER MOVING AROUND," "YOU KNOW, TO HIDE HER IN PLAIN SIGHT." "RIGHT?" "RIGHT."
