Cut to Catherine striding into Gil's office and dropping a big leather duffel on his desk with an exasperated grunt. Gil's got an expression like, "You've picked a fine time to plan a weekend getaway." The two then have this exchange:

Catherine: I got the money.
Gil: From where?
Catherine: Where do you think?
Gil: You had time to strip again?

No, wait, that wasn't it. It was more like:

Catherine: I got the money.
Gil: From where?
Catherine: Where do you think?
Gil: Catherine, if the press finds out about this, it'll look like Sam Braun bribed the lab.
Catherine: He's a casino owner, a leader of industry, never convicted of a crime, and right now, I don't care about the integrity of the lab at the moment. I care about Nick.

And there you have the differences between Ecklie, Catherine, and Gil in a nutshell: Ecklie immediately tried to play the system so everyone could save face, Catherine went outside the system regardless of consequence, and Gil...did whatever it is he's been doing. Selling rare bugs on FleaBay to rustle up some ransom? Gil points out that he, too, cares about Nicky. Catherine plows over him with, "You're sitting here staring at your coffee cup with your deep thoughts, like Jack Handey, and if you've got a better plan, I'm all ears!" Gil looks deeply wounded by that. He finally sighs and admits, "All right. But I make the drop. You're hands-off." Catherine protests, "But it's my money!" "You can't be seen anywhere near this money," Gil snaps. He continues, "It was given to the lab anonymously. Agreed?" Catherine agrees.

At the appointed time, the Nickyfeed cuts out and an address scrolls across the screen: "4672 Carney Lane -- Boulder HWY. Be there in 20 minutes, or don't bother coming." I hope it's only a short trip, then. Evidently, it is. In a very nicely framed shot, we see Gil, clad in black like a particularly hip monk, standing next to a telephone pole, on a slab of pavement that's been bleached by the sun. A warehouse lists in front of him, its washed-out walls fading into the pavement and making the blue sky pop out in sharp relief. It's just a really nicely balanced composition; I can't do it justice by trying to explain why it's so pretty.
