Bishop's transformation is turning out to be a bigger complication than it may have initially seemed (and I would venture that it initially seems pretty monumental). How are all of the people she had previously met as a man going to react to a young woman who claims to be Captain Jack Bishop? We shall have to see...

She should say she's "working with Bishop".

But really the thing that jumps out at me is the totally correct yet harsh assessment that the Unwanted were used as "infantry" by Shadowlight.

Bishop: "I am, uh... Captain Bishop's long lost daughter!" ;-D

@ lirv, re: ""what a secret agent looks like"

Ideally, they are like serial killers: they look like everyone else. :P

No real way around trying to explain a high school student is working with a senior agent of a top secret security agency, though is there ... ?

Here's a simple trick.

If they look like teenagers from film or television, they - like the actors who play them are probably at least in their twenties.

Ergo, if they look ridiculously younger than teenagers from film or television, they're probably teenagers.

@ Shan, re: actors

To add to this, there are a good number of tricks anyone in that age range could do to appear younger or older... to a point.

@ Shan, re: "high school student"

The entire fact that someone who looks like a high school student is working for a top secret team is out there enough, let alone its field commander.

@ Prof, re: "high School student in secret agent team":

Though off the bat I can think of several TV series and movies with premises more or less like this. ;-D

Yeah but we're talking serious real life drama here.

You know, like Autumn Bay.

@ lirv, re: "working with Bishop"

"Yeah, hi, I'm working with that soldier that is in command of the secret agency that Felix Harper once brought into your home. Could you possibly get in touch with Felix?"

How would that even play? I mean, there are some serious mental gymnastics involved here.

“Where’s Harper?”
“Who are you?”
“Not what I was asking. Where’s Harper?”
“I’m not telling you a thing until you tell me who you are.”
“The NRK have been destroyed, the Jacks coopted. You do not want to be the next gang on this list. Where’s Harper?”

Man, I’d come across like Noctis on a bad day...

@ lirv, re: dialogue

God damn, I kind of wish we were going the direct route like that. That is some great, high-impact dialogue.

I have a possibly stupid question: What is "sop" (or "SOP" or "Sop")??

I believe the answer to the problem has just walked in their front door.......

The answer to a quite different problem--the deplorably low ranking for AB on TWC--is also right in front of us. Just click HERE, and drop a desperately needed vote to rectify this injustice. ^^

As far as "answer to their problem", well...

Well, either one of them could talk to Pogo, but Mercy would also be an ideal answer to an earlier problem. One might even go so far as to say a uniquely qualified answer. ^^

Well, Mercy does have Pogo's ear. If she's asking, he probably answers, no questions asked.

I'm curious as to which earlier problem...

Ah, yes. That was actually what we were going for with the juxtaposition of dialogue over another scene happening.

Though, there are two adepts in that scene... :)

We know that Mercy has the chops for the task--Ghoul, while very talented, doesn't have the track record that it would take to make that determination.....

The Artist knows, but I'll still bet on Mercy. ^^
