The Never Ending Quest - Episode 13895

Believe it or not, there are actually three sides to this mess within this stories NSA.

We have Abbot's side, who wishes to upkeep and preserve the civil liberties of America and would rather just have the NSA do what it was originally chartered to do, protect America's communications and such. Keep tabs on the foreign elements, and let those who were chartered to take care of domestic intelligence issues do their job. Have not gone public with this stuff for fear on what would happen. The resultant "cure" could well be worse than the "disease." Mob justice is such an ugly thing......

We have Reynold's side, who have out of sense of duty (overzealous duty) that things have gone too far in America taken up the cause of monitoring (and perhaps "fixing") what they see is wrong with America. It's a bit of vigilantism, basically. They see that America as heading for Hell in a handbasket, and only they can stop it (they and allies throughout other parts of government and such). For the greater good, these folks will do terrible things. They see themselves as a solution, but they are only adding to the problem and if left unchecked will eventually turn the United States of America into a police state. For the greater good, of course.....

Then, there are those within the NSA (like Feilder and such) who have no idea at the truth. Don't mistake ignorance at stupidity, but these folks are being manipulated by both sides.

Makes for a scary situation, really.

So, anyway, we have Abbot, who is high up in his factions organization, but not the leader (that would be a person like the one who Whistler said had been in Houston so long ago.....)

Reynolds is high up in his organization, but still wanting to climb higher. When he killed Hamersly, it won the approval of his superiors (for it moved ahead their interests so well). Now, with recent events, things are getting a bit hot for Reynolds....who wonders if and when things will come down on his head!

  1. See, things have been going a bit screwy....
