Colten's Apartment: Night

Cole and an unknown figure are in his apartment talking.

"You've been on this assignment long enough Andrews, you told me you could get the job done fast and easy"

"Look, getting involved in this job was never easy, and taking them down isn't easy either." Said Cole.

"The difficulty with this job better be the reason for this delay, I don't want to inform Clayton that you've failed because of falling for your target"

"Why would you think that?"

"There are rumors Andrews, that you've bedded the enemy, so what I suggest is that you prove the rumors wrong and finish the job before the end of the week. You know what will happen if you don't finish the job. I've seen your work Colten, and I know you're the best we have"

"Don't worry Ventroxa, it will be finished"

"See to it that it is"

CLOCKTOWER:

"Barbara, I was supposed to let you know that Reese is back and that he's ready to help when we need him"

"Hmm, so that's the source of Helena's bad mood. Did they talk?" asked Barbara

"Nope. Honestly Barbara, getting them two back together will be like trying to finish a puzzle with missing pieces."

"Now wait just a minute, we cannot go around and try to get them back together."

"Why not?"

"Because we can't reopen those wounds that she just got closed, not to mention she's with Cole now"

"Ya, and how long is that going to last?"

"Dinah what on earth do you have against the guy?"

"For once Barbara, my gut is just telling me not to like him, I can't help it"

"Dinah, I'm sorry, but we need to stay out of this. Breaking Helena and Cole up would be worse than what we would be trying to help her with. He's a good guy, don't worry about it"

Just then the Delphi alert went off. Another night of protecting civilization.
