[Good morning, Heropa. Greeting you today is a man with a bright smile and an even brighter shirt — aqua, with a tie that seems to match only in theory — and a look in his eye that twinkles with confidence and certainty. Yes, here is a man who is not at all questioning this place and its motives; here is a man who is totally okay with the situation in which he's found himself; here is a man who is a very good, very convincing faker.]

Greetings and salutations, fellow ImPorts! Allow me to introduce myself: Saul Goodman, attorney at law and soon-to-be judge. I want you all to be able to think of me as a resource — as someone whose purpose here is to assist where and when I can, at least as far as legal issues are concerned. For consultation purposes only, though; I won't... uh, really have the time to open my own practice here, unfortunately.

[And that does seem like something that upsets him, but he allows that emotion in for all of two seconds before dismissing it and focusing back on sounding genuine and honest. Which he is, to some degree. It's just... kind of rare, is all. But this is what happens when you don't want to upset your kidnappers: You do what you think you have to.]

Anyway, I'm gonna have to spend some time catching up on what's actually going on in this place, legally and politically speaking. There are other lawyers and legal professional-types around, right? We should chat. Oh, and for all you daytime TV-watchers —

[THERE THEY ARE. THE FINGERGUNS.]

Get used to seeing this face.

That's my name, don't wear it out.

[Her ID tag on the network and her entry in the imPort contact records just read "Skye" too. Even if Freddie does the most thorough of digging, she won't find a record of any surname anywhere.]

I used to be something of a journalist myself. Back home. My job was getting the truth out to the people. But your "journalism" isn't truth. It's just whatever you think will make a quick buck.

[It's an affront to everything Skye believes in, basically. In her mind, deliberately spreading misinformation makes Freddie even lower than the government who willfully hides information. That, and she's got it in for Will. But she isn't going to bring him into this.]

[ ding ding ding you are 1000% correct, Skye. which means it's time for bullshit ]

I'm providing a service to the community. You don't see other papers covering the sort of stuff I do, do you? The public wants this news, however grisly or traumatizing it is. So, I'll give it to them.

Newsflash: the other papers don't cover the stuff you do because the stuff you cover is bullshit!

Your opinion's been noted. It's not going to change anything because I'm not going to change anything, but it's been noted.

Happy now?

Obviously not.
