"At ease, Purkiss," Steele offers Cedric, inviting him to sit, "You can't be faulted for all the reports they make you fill out anyway."
"Good, now that's everybody. Time to explain the mission."
"A short while ago, the Department of Homeland Security managed to intercept some information about a terrorist threat. Although they found out it wasn't actually against America, and they can't pin it to any specific terrorist group. Still, the attack is going to take place somewhere in Turkey. And Turkey is a strong ally of democracy, an example of a free, democratic Muslim nation in the Middle East. As such, it would only make sense that it would be hated by all sorts of the terrorist crazies as being a 'traitor'. Anyway, with not enough information to go on as to the exact location and specifications of the threat, it was very difficult to get agreement on any course of action. The United States wanted to send in some military aid to Turkey in the form of missiles and planes, but Iran says that's just a likely excuse to get said weapons in the right position to attack those scum later."
"I don't agree with them, but I do think we can show the world that this can be solved without an application of military force. A crack team of Resolutes has been assembled to...well, okay. Maybe not a crack team. The remaining Resolutes have been assembled and tasked to form a small undercover investigation to take care of the terrorist threat in Turkey. No lunatics with earthquake powers, just some good old fashion terrorists and intel-gathering. Shouldn't be too hard for you guys, hopefully. Plus Turkey is a beautiful vacation spot, so for those of you who were unfortunately forced into back-to-back missions due to the circumstances, we are issuing you a week's vacation there after you take care of the terrorists. I figure the only thing that might be able to stop you is the language. Anybody speak Turkish? Start learning now. I seem to remember Teshekuredereem means 'Thank You', for starters."
"Any questions?"
