When it was time to leave for the DOE headquarters, I wasn't nervous at all. I was confident that I would be able to do what I needed to. I knew that I would be able to maintain my cover story, and make everyone there think that I was Janelle Downs. And I knew that, even though I wouldn't be where the heart of the action was, I would be able to find out some very useful information.
I knew that not everyone was as optimistic about my mission as I was, but I knew that there was a reason that I was needed for this mission. I would show them all that I was a vital part of this mission. I would prove to them that they needed me here. And for crying out fucking loud, I would make sure that Paul knew that I didn't need him to guard me every minute of the day.
