"You mentioned that, Mr. Blackwell. Are you safe with him?" "He shot Cole thinking I was in danger." "But?" "When I had to see OPR when I was working with you, I was explaining myself. Now, I'm explaining why Krycek shot Cole for me." "So as long as you're the one in trouble, it's OK." "Yeah." "Is he going to be more trouble?" "I think this was it. Somehow, I can't see him sitting in Skinner's office getting an earful and covering for me. You were better at that." "And for that, I'm doing my penance here while you're on wiretap duty." "My guess: Krycek will be on a short leash for a while too." "Good or bad thing?" "It is what it is, like our current situation." "Talk to you tomorrow." "I'm sure I'll have more blonde jokes from the titty bar under surveillance." "Can't wait." x-x-x Sorry, I just can't see either one of them wasting their time on Alex at this point. Down the road, you bet. Right now, he's Jerry Lamana with better fitting suits. Feedback -- more fun than blonde jokes: Maureen_B_Ocks@yahoo.com
