Reese: That’s some good shootin’ there, friend.
Leonard: You don’t have to sugar-coat it. I can see my own shots. I’m doing
terribly. I’m sure if you stood up here, there would only be one hole on the
target after you emptied the mag.
Reese: I don’t know about that, but I imagine parole officers don’t get much
target training, and don’t have to keep up with the same standards.
Leonard: No, not conventionally. That’s why I’m here. If I’m going to lead
the trainees and agents, I need to be better. I doubt I’ll be as good as
them, but if I turn out to not be a great leader, I can’t also be terrible
at everything else at the same time.
Reese: I’m certain you’ll do great. SI Eliot isn’t a decent shot either,
which is why he’s a leader, and he got to where he is today because he’s a
good judge of character.
Leonard: I wouldn’t know.
Reese: He chose you, didn’t he? And Myka?
Leonard: That’s true...on the second part.
Reese: I know you’re nervous. I am too. I’ve never been in this position
before. Sure, I’ve spoken to crowds, and I’ve coordinated with local law
enforcement, but I’ve never been fully in charge. I still don’t know what
we’re gonna be doing. Nobody does. Is this an invasion? Are we fostering
allies? Will we never see another new alien again?
Leonard: I suppose all we can do is start at the beginning, and take it one
day at a time.
Reese: *chuckling a little* Well, the range looks great. You clean this all
up yourself?
Leonard: Yeah, I guess the remodelers weren’t told that we would need it,
but I’m thinking we will.
Reese: We definitely will. Is there anything you need for it, or for
anything else? Have you noticed a lightbulb out, or whatever?
Leonard: Not that I’ve seen, but I’ve not been on the lookout for that kind
of stuff. I can do that now, though; walk through the space, and take note
of issues.
Reese: Nah, you don’t have to. Myka is responsible for that. One of the
detainees has already been assigned to her team. We’ll send him on that
scavenger hunt. Speaking of Myka, what do you think of her?
Leonard: Myka? Oh, she’s great. She’s mentioned her plans for this building;
it sounds like she’s ready to turn it into a real workplace.
Reese: That’s not what I mean.
Leonard: I don’t know what you mean.
Reese: Evidently you asked about interoffice relationships?
Leonard: I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Reese: It’s okay. I’ve seen the way you two are with each other. Anyway,
that’s irrelevant. Even if you were only asking to better understand the
laws of our world in general, I’ll give you the answer. The government
encourages finding partners within the same organization. It’s easier to
deal with confidential information. Even if you’re not allowed to tell your
partner something, they’re better at knowing not to ask.
Leonard: *nodding* If we’re talking in generalizations, then I should
ask...how do you feel about Myka? I guess that’s not that general.
