I vote to take care of the lab first. It is much nearer and we don't loose the tie for a trip to Asia and back. And the enemy situation is much more clear at the lab. Storming all around through Asia may have actually negative consequences.
So, first lab, then girl.

, as for phoenix's plot, no idea what he's plotting, that dastardly devil! ... Hive mind devil like freaky deaky mutant guy Ok, I’m trying to make sense of your last post Voda, character wise.
From what I can tell Uomo is a strait laced, intelligent character; he will deceive an enemy but he is transparent those he deems an ally.
Meanwhile:
- Uomo is highly experienced, he should have be able to square things as simple as funding away during the plain flight if not during the drive from the cabin. He did not.
-Giving Felix a credit card is a bit of a half solution; Felix’s active aliases are too young to rent a room without rising red flags. In order for them to use the card to get a room someone else (basically Laura) would have to be the one to rent the room while the card is used at a previous stop at an ATM to gain cash preemptively… Also, what’s the pin? Felix just got this card and has no idea what it could be.
Simply giving them an sensible amount of cash would have been simpler and more affective then having them have to go to an ATM, that takes pictures of anyone using it. (also, if the card has Felix’s actual name on it, he would spread it on the spot, he is not going to use something that leaves a meaningful paper trail)
-Felix waited until after Uomo walked away to voice anything, and even then the first thing was beneath his breath and he never yelled; yet Uomo responded to the utterance from the distance anyways, chucked a credit card at him, made him look petty, winked, and then walked away.
Seems like Uomo is sending Felix a message
If we go back an additional post things start to really aggravating for Felix: Uomo chooses to take a novice reporter along with him to survey a compound in place of, rather than in addition to, the trained spy and infiltrator that Uomo has a full history on.
Even with his general lack of field experience, Felix is more qualified for surveillance duty then anyone in the party save for Uomo himself.
Felix had assumed Uomo had the ‘were they were staying at’ thing more or less dealt with, a safe house or sum such, given that it was never mentioned before; instead Felix basically finds out that he is in the group responsible for getting sleeping quarters and he’s likely the only one in the group who can afford the expense. While it’s the lesser of the things gnawing at him at this point, it’s the one he choose to vent through.
[The job of securing a room basically meant, to Felix anyway, renting the room(s) and sweeping it for bugs, Felix knows how to look for bugs, but Grid can sweep for them better then he can and even then faster, and since he can’t pay for the room himself, do to looking to young, he is rather useless in the endeavor. (while a single room could work, a preference for more is made to allow party members to rest as needed
The Car is much of the same, they would want to buy a van of some kind, given their numbers, but, thanks to the nature of Grid’s power, they could rent a van and then have him falsified the van’s computer (with only basic equipment you can check out exactly what a vehicle has done while it was on: so if someone plugged into their vehicle for diagnostic information they can get the information needed to know where all the vehicle has been, how it got were, and when. Highly incriminating given what their planning on doing if it’s not doctored)]
All in all, Felix is nigh useless in securing a room or car once the issue of paying for it is taken care of when Grid is a part of the group doing so.
And what is driving him furthest up the wall is that he can get the closest to the lab without setting off a complex wide alert while observing it, for the longest length of time, He would have the easiest time getting out of dodge if something went wrong and he knows it.

I'm just really at a lose here :/

You are indeed, because there are several things you got wrong:
3)Never said you should use your aliases for the credit card. as for the pin, yeah, I missed that one out. Don't actually think that level of detail was unnecessary.
Hope this clears things out
1) Uomo and Fulcrum are not going to the compound to scout it. They are going to hotels, casinos, and other places in Vegas to search info about the lab. The proper infiltration would take place later, in which Felix would take part.
2) This
was voiced and in any section it was mentioned it was a low voice rant. At any rate Uomo didn't want to make him look petty, he just solved the problem.

On the plain, from Brazil, Felix took out his own credit cards and pointed out to Laura that it would be rather odd if he went by his real name and tried to use one(if he had to) when they were all for David Fletcher (even more so considering the same name was on his ID.)
And a reminder, he is a cypher ;3

Still wondering how Uomo herd FElix so easily after walking away, but meh.

Felix knows Uomo is very very old, how old? Felix is not sure, but old enough that what Uomo calls old fashioned could literally be the Spanish Inquisition ("No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!") or from times before that, Uomo might have meant going into the lab by himself, with a stick, before everyone else. The words "Old Fashioned" with Uomo's age leaves almost any option open.
So yes, plenty of room for Felix to miss read the situation

as for the details, the devil i in them! he will dinny din on your soul if you forget them and thus your dues!
But really, I don't like using the derp-stick to bypass over sights, sets a bad precedent
So, when Uomo said 'your name' did he mean Felix's real name or David Fletcher?

This is so open ended: because of this one question: How old fashioned dos the immortal guy mean?

If Felix does interpret that, leave it that way, I'm concerned if I offend you, not the character.
Felix, otherwise he would be too young to use a credit card I guess.
