SHANNA: Snug.

JARED: Not built for comfort. We've got a job to do, we do it.

SHANNA: Yeah, I'm well aware. Smart of Jones to send me someone I've flown with before.

JARED: It was. But I actually requested it.

SHANNA: How come?

JARED: Most of the field agents don't have a lot of love for your "Revenge of the Nerds" squad. They don't really want to accept that a bunch of geeks knows anything they don't know.

SHANNA: I get that.

JARED: But me, I think that's willful ignorance. I think it's that ignorance that permitted you to break out of our prison. If I'm lacking something crucial, I want to understand the lack. It might make a critical difference. Might make this world safer for my daughters.

SHANNA: I thought F.I.B.bers weren't allowed family.

JARED: We're not.

SHANNA: So?

JARED: I'll get to see them again when my tour is over.
