All right, that’s enough stage-setting for now. We’ll be seeing Lola and Kevin again soon enough. Next week we’re back to Jacob, whose life continues to get stranger.

Lola: There's a drone stratocarrier coming over the pole in a few hours. That should give us some eyes on the situation.
Kevin: Yes, that's what I was thinking. Meanwhile, I wanted to talk to you, Lola. Whether we've lost Jacob or not, our numbers are getting very thin. You're retired. I hate going into the field. And Joey...
Lola: Joey is not known for subtlety. I see your point.
Kevin: I'd like to increase our ranks. But I'd need the secretary general's permission. As I recall, he more or less eats out of your hand. Whatever Lola wants...
Lola: Hmn. I'll talk to Stefano. But Kevin, the Genocide Project is a voting member of G.U.S. -- we're effectively a sovereign state. You should learn to use that. Sometimes it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
Kevin: I hadn't considered that. I'll keep it in mind.
Lola: Yes, do. But make sure that someone's in your corner, just in case. Remember we're just scientists, Kevin. We're not used to taking chances all on our own.
