The Blue & The Grey (Veterans Affairs)

[Committed Hero]

Any ideas, guys?

 

[Starman]

Uhm, take Pruitt in come morning and then do whatever our boss has lined up next.

 

[Committed Hero]

Fair enough, unless Bishop has anything else to do I assume you will look for a car? taxi?

 

[Starman]

Yeah, the plan was to get a taxi.

 

[Committed Hero]

There are a few taxis, apparently used to taking marines from the base up to LA. The three of you squeeze into one and are off.

Straight to Cal Tech?

 

[Widowmaker]

Yep straight to Cal Tech. No need to beat around the bush.

 

[Committed Hero]

It's about a two hour trip, and the driver is content to babble about Southern Cal's victory in th e Rose Bowl earlier in the month. About an hour into the ride, you both notice that a helicopter appears to be flying north behind you. Could it be the one you saw last night?

 

[Widowmaker]

"Heywood I think we are being followed." Bishop will state pointing towards the helicopter. "The Navy wants Pruitt pretty bad. I have an idea but I want your thoughts first."

 

[Starman]

Heywood groans. "Mr. Pruiit you made quite an impression on someone." He looks at his partner.

"What's your idea? I'm not sure I have one for this."

 

[Widowmaker]

Lowering his voice "If the driver will follow along this may work. We stop at one of the big hotels around here. We then go inside. One of us gets a cab then meets the others at a side door. I have a few other ideas but they are more complicated and harder to pull off."
