"Don't have to tell me twice sir. Let's go..." David led the way.

(OOC:  Chris, before I responded, I wanted to make sure that we could  make
it to the Runabout without being held up somewhere by Van Der Loo's  people.)

The team encountered no difficulty as they made their back to their mode of transport for the trip to the sector.  The facility they were at was busy.  They passed a number of workers along the way, but all were polite and gave a passing smile or nod in greeting.

Once on board, Jared led them toward the back module, which had been set up as living quarters.  He lifted his hand to allow the others to order there meal first, but as he did so, he decided to start the briefing.  "Besides getting some nourishment, I wanted to bring the both of you up to speed."

(reactions?)

"LtCdr Abrams was prepped for us.  He was told not to reveal to much to us about the situation by his superiors.  The PADD he had given me indicated that he was pretty much muzzled.  Another disturbing thing is that he indicated that there is enough concern about us to provide the walls with ears."  Jared raised his eyebrow.  He wanted their virgin reactions so he did not say antyhign more.

(folks?)
