[Irate Amanda storms through Division]

Amanda[to guard]:

Out of my way.

[walks into Percy's office]

Amanda[calmly]:

I wasn't aware that Rowena was set to be canceled?

Percy:

She wasn't. She's not dead is she?

Amanda:

No.

Percy:

Good, did she complete her assignment?

Amanda:

Yes. But that's not the point. Since when do we send a tracker undercover? One that requires the caliber only our field agents possess?

Percy:

She's the only one who fit the profile we needed. And she's had enough training to complete the mission.

Amanda:

Alone?

[Percy remains silent.]

Amanda:

Why wasn't I informed? I should have been there to guide her through.

Percy:

Exactly why I didn't tell you.

[Amanda looks questioningly]

Percy:

Since Rowena arrived at Division, you have kept very tight reigns on her, Amanda. I felt that if you were to guide her on this mission, she would lean on you to finish it. I wanted to see her finish it herself.

[pause]

How did you find out?

Amanda:

We had an appointment. When she didn't show, I went to Michael.

[Percy appears satisfied]

Percy:

Where is she now?

Amanda:

Safe. Recuperating. They broke her legs.

[Percy looks a bit questioningly]

Amanda:

Reynolds had 3 men under the radar. They made themselves known as she was leaving. She killed them both. Roan is cleaning it up now.

Percy:

Fine. I expect you'll be debriefing her. And let me know when she's back to work.

Amanda:

Of course
