The Body Farm. Poca's shooting the shit out of one of those paper target thingies. She turns to Billy, hovering behind her, and shouts at him, "WHEN DID YOU COME THROUGH HERE?" Billy gently removes her gunfire-shielding ear protectors and tells her, "Couple years ago." The hell? She wants to be dropped in the middle of a war zone RIGHT NOW and she can't remember not to yell when she's got her ear protection on? Yeah. She's sooooo ready for Indonesia. Bring it on.
Poca's all surprised that Billy's only been at the agency for two years. Billy's all snitty and rattles off his military and government background. There's an attempt at witty banter that fails miserably. Finally, Poca wants to know if anyone in America even cares about this situation. Billy tells her that the family of the guy who was beheaded cares about it. Billy drones on about how it's a strategic part of the world and it has over six thousand islands (actually, it's more like thirteen thousand) and that if Kalimantan (I guess that's the place where all this crap is going down) secedes (from where? from what?), they all might secede, and it'll be Bosnia all over again. Know what? That's right. I don't know what the hell he's talking about.
Spy Central. Jeanie runs into Billy in the hallway and asks what he thinks of Poca. He thinks her ego could be filed down a bit with a human-sized emery board, and that she may not be half as ready as she seems to think she is. Jeanie just says she's exhibiting all the signs and tendencies of a "cocky CIA trainee." She's a stone bitch, Jeanie. There's nothing "cocky" about it.
Billy doesn't acknowledge Jeanie's assessment of Poca, instead moving on to the ever-entertaining subject of his brother's death. Billy's all, Jackson told me to call this guy in Casualty Affairs. Jeanie's all, dude, he died fighting for his country, leave it alone already! Billy's all, but, dude, don't you wanna know how he died? Jeanie's all, dude, FIND A NEW STORYLINE.
