[New Hire Encryption] Pay Dirt
Hello, rig crew. I have an update on the Dick Washburn situation. The guilt finally got to him, and he decided to make himself helpful.
[ She turns her comm's camera to scan over two small but extremely important objects in her other hand: a piece of paper with some complicated-looking sequences of numbers and mathematical symbols... ]
[ ...And Dickwash's shock collar control fob. ]
We have less than four hours before he misses a security check for the fob. Then they'll remotely detonate it, and we won't be able to block that signal. The paper... has to do with the activation frequencies for the nanochains? He stole the data from Boyle.
[ She turns the camera again. She's proud of what she's accomplished here, but not sure what this win is going to look like in motion. She is Not A Scientist. She's not a diplomat either. This is a wild day in the life of Carolina. ]
I can't stop anyone from making choices, but I told him to get out once it's clear we've started moving against the company. He wants to go hide his family from retaliation, and I don't think he'll be our problem ever again.
[ Carolina is not interested in punishing him any further. She saw the look on his face. He'll punish himself enough, she thinks. She's been there. ]
In the meantime...
[ A lot has happened. Time to remember who was doing what in the wake of Brainiac 5's murder, before she charged off on this gamble. ]
Cammie? You were trying to pick up Brainy's work on the collars, right?

[ They have well and truly pivoted on Dickwash's survival odds in this group. She's not even sure if she's proud, it's just something that's happening and that analysis will come back from the lab later. ]

Assassination is what I was literally made for, Carolina.
[While she's made some advances on the "good person" front, Kerrigan is never going to be the type to hold all life sacred, especially not when that life belongs to someone as dangerous as Celeste Lillian.]
no subject
[ Carolina's mercy requires a baseline of decency (or plausible effort to improve) that Celeste has not achieved this week. Kerrigan's plan gets a gold star in her book. ]
