Scans show it was a surveillance ship, Commander. No doubt collecting information on the lab. It seems that time might be short here.

We are being scanned. Opening a line of communication now.

…Our hails are going unanswered, Commander. This may be one of the “unsavory parties” Bristow mentioned.

Maia
Dialogue
Section 31 sent us. You seem to have a leak at the lab. We just intercepted a surveillance vessel in close proximity. It would appear that intel on your operation has gotten out.

Section 31 should know that everyone at this lab is loyal. You presume to accuse us; show me your proof.
Objective ID

The proof is in the fact that others now know about you.

I can vouch for everyone working in this lab. No one would sell our secrets and threaten the project.

Perhaps the leak was not intentional.

Dalton is the leak?

He was speaking of a “hot date” over the weekend. Perhaps in a juvenile attempt to impress a prospective mate, he divulged information regarding the project.

Where is Dalton now?

T'Seph
Dialogue
He works in our quarantine station. If he did this, Independent, it was not intentional. Surely Section 31 would not punish an accidental slip-up?

We are not here to punish anyone. We simply intend to speak with Dalton and to get to the bottom of this leak.

Time for your first Dossier, Independent. A bigger job this time. You seem to have impressed Sloan with your abilities, so let’s keep that going, yeah? You look good, I look good.

Quite possible.

Have you heard from her since?
Objective ID

Character
Dalton
Dialogue
N-no. She said she’d call me, but… Well, it’s only been a few days. I thought maybe she didn’t want to come on too strong. But you’re telling me it was all about getting intel out of me?
Objective ID
697,624,135
Phase

Maia
Dialogue
It seems likely. We will have to notify Section 31 of this Dalton. You understand.

But I–

Come in, Independent. Long-range sensors are showing incoming ships. Too many for us to deal with alone. Tell me Section 31 has a contingency plan.

Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Commander, I am sending a request for backup through Section 31’s Independent network. Do not fear, T’Seph. We will protect the laboratory, but you will need to get your people out of the line of fire.

Bristow
Dialogue
Section 31 has a vested interest in a lab that’s been studying Borg technology and researching new – safe – applications for it. I don’t need to spell out the benefits this could have for the Federation.
Objective ID
866,835,607
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Bristow
Dialogue
But it looks like someone working there has been loose-lipped. We’ve intercepted chatter about the lab; some… unsavory parties have become aware of its existence.
Objective ID
866,835,607
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Bristow
Dialogue
We want you to go there, identify the leak, and protect the lab. Utilize our extended network of Independents if it comes to it. We can’t have that technology falling into the wrong hands. Got it?
Objective ID
866,835,607
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Affirmative. Setting a course for the Tango system.

Dialogue
So? How did it go?
Objective ID
880,084,304
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
The lab is safe for now, but I expect they will need further protection in the future. A lot of people are interested in the technology they are developing there, Bristow.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Bristow
Dialogue
Obviously. And the leak?
Objective ID
880,084,304
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Identified and dealt with. It was an accident – one of the lab technicians overshared during a date.
Objective ID
880,084,304
Phase

Character
Bristow
Dialogue
Ah, the honeypot. A classic. And this technician’s name?
Objective ID
880,084,304
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Irrelevant. He learned his lesson.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Bristow
Dialogue
I wouldn’t have picked you for a bleeding heart, Commander! But fine. I’ll be keeping an eye on that lab going forward anyway. If anyone lets anything slip, I’ll find out. And I won’t be so generous.
Objective ID

Bristow
Dialogue
Still, good job out there. Come visit me in the Section 31 Faction Store. I have another Dossier for you.

Character
Dalton
Dialogue
We owe you, Independent. Or, Section 31, I guess…
Objective ID
880,084,304
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
T'Seph
Dialogue
And on that note, perhaps we can keep Dalton’s name out of things, Independent. I believe he has learned his lesson?
Objective ID

Character
Dalton
Dialogue
Oh, yes. Most definitely. Next time I have a hot date–

Dalton!

Dalton
Dialogue
No more talking about the lab!
Objective ID
880,084,304
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
…Very well. Our show of force today should stave off prying eyes for now, but now that your operation has been exposed, I would expect further attempts to steal your research.

Reach out to your contact at Section 31 if you need further assistance.

We will. Thank you, Independent.
