Out of Left Field

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 13896

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

Reynolds would have used a more elegant choice of words, but in the end it would amount to the same.

It was a bit off, as Reynolds had said concerning the situation surrounding Dean after that meeting between Dean and the mysterious Brill. Nothing yet that Reynolds and his team had tried had been able to uncover the mystery man's true identity. There had been 23 Brills in Baltimore area alone, and none had checked out. Attempts to raise the stakes further by framing Dean for murder of Rachel AND his wife, then kidnaping his child had proved disastrous! Pratt and the others Reynolds had sent to do the deed had cut and run (the one agent that the Cartel had found later had kept babbling nonsense about elves, magic, and crying and crying about not being able to tell lies......) Strange indeed. That and the fact that it soon became obvious that for some reason Reynolds did indeed have to have the captured fugitive killed because he "kept running his mouth." Then there was the reason just WHY he was here on a Sunday morning....

In addition to what Reynolds KNEW was planted evidence (and increasing evidence) that HE was on the take, somehow and other wrongdoings (mysterious large amounts of money suddenly appearing in his wife's private account and a bouquet of flowers from somebody named Crista). There was the surveillance equipment found in both his house AND Congressman Albert's hotel room (God knows what had been seen in the last). This was doubly bad because not only did it anger a highly placed member in the group that Reynolds belonged to, it was bad because the survey equipment belonged to Reynolds' team! Somebody had swiped that very equipment from his team and planted it in his own house and that of Congressman Albert's hotel room!

Somebody was toying with Reynolds and he didn't like it even a little!

At least I was able t send my two girls away to their grandparents in to keep them safe, Reynolds sighed, hoping that whoever was toying with him wouldn't strike at him through them!

A twinge of conscious was pushed away, reminding him that HE had ordered something similar to happen to Dean.....

That's different....it's for the greater good, Reynolds told himself.

Meanwhile, the director of NSA (a man not within either Reynolds or Abbot's circle) is still speaking softly....clearly angered.

He slams his hand down on the table, causing the department heads to jump in surprise!

The director finishes up by saying that if whoever had checked out the materials found in Albert's room was doing it on a legit op, then so be it. But if it was someone's unilateral wet....er.....if it wasn't legit, then that somebody was going to jail!

Reynolds' felt like the temperature in the room was going up a bit.

The stakes had been raised, alright.

Against him!


Next, two people get phonecalls from mysterious people......

Reynolds gets one from a man named Brill.

But there is also another phonecall given to one Bernard Abbot!

  1. Soon after the rather tense meeting with the director of the NSA, Abbot and a special guest are discussing recent events......
