"Have you seen this girl?", the rat in the dark glasses asks at the nurse's desk, as she looks over the folder handed to her with Tammy's picture, and falsified documents inside. "I'm not allowed to disclosed such information.", the nurse says. An open wallet is tossed out gently onto the desk for the nurse to see a shiny badge and an American CIA Identification. "I'm sorry madam, I might be out of my jurisdiction here, but my partner and I have been chasing this murderess across Europe and am to bring her back to the United States. She has killed 25 people so far, mostly men, but a few women as well... I suspect that she may have recently struck. Anything you offer would be a great help.", the rat explains, almost pleads. "I need to get back to you on this...", the nurse says. "You know just giving you the information could cost me my job." "There is a 2 million euro reward for information that leads to her capture.", he adds. She reaches into her desk shelves and pulls out a binder of recent patient transfers and removals, leaving it open at Tammy's page in plain sight. She then gets up out of her chair and walks away from her station. The man with the dark glasses reaches over to the binder and rips the page out of it. He notices the signature at the bottom of the page where it is stated for patient release: Francisco Allerghetti. "Alright Pino, I got what we need.", he starts to say as he stuffs the paper into his pocket and takes his wallet. They both walk out of the hospital. Several minutes the nurse returns her station, finding the page ripped out of the binder. She looks over her desk but finds the rat and his partner gone. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Marco: I'll go gather some information in Rome. Chances are by now, there should be something in the streets. Hillshire: Alone? Marco: I'll get Pricilla and Olga with me. Hillshire: I'll go with you then. Marco: You want to witness this? Hillshire: Why not. Marco: Then we go now. Tammy, don't leave this place without telling us. Tammy: I wont, sir. Hillshire and Marco gather their cyborg girls and leave for intell gathering in Rome. Tammy goes upstairs to Fernando's room, allowing herself to enter the room. Fernando protests the intrusion. Fernando: Tammy... don't be making this a habit, my head really does hurt. Tammy (as she sits on the bed by him): Hillshire and Marco left with their girls, to get some information from the streets. Fernando: I see. OK then. What they had to say? Tammy: Did you know that Anne was related to Mr. Christiano? Fernando: I had my assumptions. Tammy: You know that Mr. Christiano may have put a price on our heads? Fernando: I would if I were him, having all his money and power, you know. Tammy: I'm serious, Fernando... We could be wanted by the underground crime lords. Fernando: So besides super bad government agents and military types trying to steal Bink and kill you for her, you now have organized crime figures wanting you dead or alive for a reward? Welcome to my world, girl. Tammy: We're just sinking further and further into one bad situation into something worse! Fernando: You're sinking, I'm already at the bottom. Looks, Tammy, all jokes aside. You will always be wanted in one way or another. You will always have somebody who does not like you so much that they would prefer to see you dead. Whether its some idiot wanting a reward on your tail, or some crazed religious fanatic who blows himself up next to you because you're not his type of people... someone will always be after you. Tammy: Can I ask, how do agents retire? Fernando: We never do, we just say we are. Tammy: Why? Fernando: Why, what? Tammy: Why do agents never retire? Fernando: We cant. There will always be somebody after us. Tammy: Will you continue to protect me? Fernando: I cant? Tammy: Why not? Fernando: For now, I will. But I can not be there for you forever. This is why you have to be able to protect yourself. Tammy: Can you, now? Fernando: I thought I told you I would. Tammy: No... I mean... Tammy puts her legs up on the bed, then one slightly over his, while putting her head on his chest and her arms around his shoulders, letting her tail fall on them. Tammy: Just hold me. Fernando puts his arms around her. A little less than an hour later, Tammy pushes up against the bed, away from Fernando slightly. Fernando: You OK? Tammy: Better. You? Fernando: Still got the headache. Tammy: Maybe I should get you some pill or something? Fernando: At this stage, nothing works. Tammy: How about some lunch? Fernando: How about some more peace and quiet? Tammy: OK, I'll leave you alone then. Tammy tries to get up gently, but Fernando holds her. Fernando: You don't have to leave unless you want too. Tammy looks at him, unsure how to answer. She lets her actions speak louder than words as she sets herself down upon him again as before, maybe holding him a little bit tighter. The TV shows goes into a commercial break, Bink looks around and sees that her sister was not around and gets up to look for her. Not finding her in the kitchen, she goes upstairs to their room and not find her there either. She walks to Fernando's room to ask him where she might be, opening the door and discovers the two of them (innocently) in bed together. Bink: TAMMY!!!
