1. [Not too long after the sprawl mission, Jen can be found talking to someone on a phone.]
What do you mean it counts as a default?! I got there with time to spare!
...Look, it's not my fault a ninja showed up to kill everyone!
[They say some more, and Jen just sighs.]
...Is the operation to get my drive replaced at least covered? I only just finished the payments on this thing...
[The person on the other end of the phone replies, and Jen slams the handset back down on the receiver-hard enough to shatter them both.]

...great. Today's great.
2. [Later, at the bar, Jen's sitting alone-and she's built up an impressive collection of empty bottles and shot glasses around her.]

Okay, normally I should definitely be blacked out by now...

...Are you really sure you're not an alcoholic?
Yes!

Please don't mind me. It looks like you've been through a lot recently.

I only wanted to have like two beers, but that didn't do anything, and so...

That's impressive. And dare I say, quite unusual.

That robot I hid in shot me full of some weird stuff, I can't do my job anymore, that guy got decapitated and that other guy got crushed...
So I'm kind of looking to relax and unwind and not having an easy time of it.

I don't think Unity Group will bar you entrance from medical facilities, especially if they are not in use. After all...
You somehow made it here already, didn't you?

Augh, I should just go to sleep and deal with it tomorrow.
At least the place where it stabbed me stopped hurting...

Outside Paradigm I'm not exactly keeping the fact that I'm Big O's pilot a secret, but I'd like to ask you to you to be discreet about it regardless.

What are you going to do now? Return to your job, try to work out the situation you stepped into?
From:

Being paid to kill people isn't real attractive, either...
But if I wanna go back to my old job, I'll need a lot of money upfront first. So...I don't really know what I'm gonna do.
From:

You'll figure out what to do eventually, I'm sure. In the meantime, I doubt the locals will mind if you stay here as long as you need and ponder your options.

You know looking at all of that glass, you should actually be suffering from alcohol poisoning by now.

['This dame's got the scent of a white collar worker from one of the deadliest parts of the world. Wouldn't surprise me if she was. Job's gone sour... how I don't know... but I guess I should find out... might be something weird that could bite people in the ass if left alone.']
Well Miss I'd have to say, you'd probably make a killing in a drinking contest if you really could put it away like that. But I'm guessing this isn't normal is it?

[He takes a sip of his glass... it was a lot lighter and just fancier than his usual fare. Still... a drink was a drink.]
But I'm guessing your line of work usually has some form of abnormality quotient if you said ninjas were 'one thing'.
['Sounds like a crazier night than a lot of people would care for... guess someone didn't want her to deliver the goods... or maybe wanted them for themselves. Maybe it might have something to do with why she isn't collapsing right now from all the drink.']

And I'd hate to start punching someone each time he spaces out when I don't even know his name yet.
