More drinks go down the gullets of the geek Legion of Doom. More blurry camera work. Jake is soused, and hollers for another round just as a new one arrives at the table, hiding that he's filming everyone with his phone. The geeks take turns going around the table and bitching about past jobs where they were mistreated or underappreciated. News flash: That doesn't happen only to geeks. It's a universal truth. And if everyone who had a piece-of-shit job sought revenge, there'd be no one but robbers around. There's tales of being canned for suspected of stealing Post-Its, sleeping on used futons trumped by a flea-infested couch, until Jake stupidly opens his mouth to reveal that he once had an IT job with two bosses that second-guess him, and getting a quote-unquote promotion which took away his overtime. The Babe is all, "That surprises me -- I can't see you as an IT." He quickly says he's "trying to forget it," then leads a toast to no more ties or cubicles "and to doing it on our own terms!"
Ve haff das Berlin clubbing dance montage. Das Geeks dance. MacP dances. The Babe dances. Jake dances with a blonde, then busts a funky move and drops his cell phone/camera. A Das Geek grabs it and notices the real-time data stream function. All the geeks gather round to check it out, and Jake panics. Then the geeks holler, "COOL!" and dance some more. Whew.
Back in the War Room, Dr. Thora, The Man, and Leader of the Pack watch the clubbing with a little distaste. As an answer to Leader's weary sigh of "What is he doing?" Dr.Thora guesses, "The slide? It's a popular dance, more of a grind really, in that district...not helping, I know." Wow, Dr. Thora knows the hot club dances in Berlin? Dr. Thora is the bomb. They examine the images sent via Jake's camera/phone and notice that Jake is in all of the photos. Why? They don't know. Oh, and how fast can German Intelligence raid the joint to bust the geeks for robbing the Federal Reserve? The Man thinks thirty minutes would be enough time. Leader of the Pack isn't so sure. She looks at the images of Jake downing shots and having way too good a time and says, "Alert the Germans. We're going in."
