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 <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/paranoid.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":uhoh:" title="Paranoid    :uhoh:" data-shortname=":uhoh:" />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 neededThe 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 :/</blockquote>
