[It's 7AM at Homeland as Warren and Mike clock in]
Mike: "Not exactly how I wanted to spend my labor day weekend, Warren."
Warren: "Look Mike, I'd rather be anywhere but here right now, but we owe it to those dead and those still missing to continue sorting intel and processing those confirmed deceased."
Mike: "It's been nearly 3 weeks Warren. Don't you think those missing are...well..."
Warren: "Damn it Mike! My best friend is one of the hundreds missing and until I see him in a body bag, I'm not giving up. Now I suggest you return to your station before I re-assign you back to fetching me coffee."
Mike: "Yes sir
"
[Karen walks in as Mike exits]
Karen: "Warren, are you alright? I knew that after the torpedo hit Richmond things would be much different here, but I never imagined the president would get involved and potentially take over operations."
Warren: "I can't say I'm shocked. When we were put under pressure, we cracked. I'm the reason thousands are dead and hundreds, including my best friend, are missing. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the last day we are employees of the US government."
Karen: "You can't blame yourself for what happened Warren, we did our best."
Warren: "The terrorists beg to differ, Karen."
Karen: "Have you told the others about today's briefing?"
Warren: "What good would that do? If they know they are going to be fired they won't work. I need to keep them focused on containing the aftermath of Richmond."
Karen: "Well at least one good thing came of this...[kisses Warren] You know that I'm here for you Warren, right?
Warren: "[smiles] Babe these past couple of weeks have been the hardest of my life. I don't know what I would have done without you. Thank you for coming back into my life after I tried so hard to shield you from it."
Karen: "Aw Warren you're so sweet. Maybe leaving homeland would be good for us. That way we can spend some time together, no more long distance."
Warren: "I'd really like that."
[Lisa barges in]
Lisa: "You two disgust me. Moving on, a bunch of secret service agents are here, and I demand an explanation."
Warren: "I'm sorry but that's confidential Lisa."
Lisa: "What the fuck?! For the 1000th time, I'm a fucking US citizen you ignorant bastards. You can't deport me!"
[Karen and Warren simultaneously roll their eyes and exit]
[It is now 7:17 at homeland as Solomon and Mike go grab a bagel from the lounge]
Solomon: "Omg! You like strawberry cream cheese too?! That's like SO cute!"
Mike: "...Yeah."
Solomon: "Mikey what's been up with you lately? You seem to be in a funk."
Mike: "Gee Solomon I don't know. My mom died last month and I've attended 4 other funerals since June. Now thousands are dead because of my mistakes. Other than that I'm JUST GREAT."
Solomon: "Aww such cute sarcasm. Well at least we have each other cutie."
Mike: "That's the problem Solomon, we're together. I really care about you, and I don't want anything bad to happen to you."
Solomon:"[begins sobbing] Are you...BREAKING UP WITH ME?!"
Mike: "Solomon I can't handle seeing anyone else I care about getting hurt. I don't want to do this Solomon, but it's best that the both of us try and forget the good times we had and distance ourselves."
Solomon:"You're going to let 1 person, granted a very good mole and assasin, but still ONE person get in between us? I guess you really are a little too immature for me."
[Solomon turns away and begins walking]
Mike: "Solomon, wait let's talk through this!.....Solomon?"
[It is now 7:24 as Lisa continues to argue with the secret service]
Lisa: "Okay listen. I know some shit is about to go down. Just let Lisa know what you're here for."
Agent: "I'm not at liberty to say ma'am. If you'll excuse me the president has arrived at headquarters."
Lisa: "THE PRESIDENT?! Aw helllll naw. I got some shit to say to him. This latina needs some health care rapidamente! Let me at him!"
Agent: "Somebody take her to holding."
Lisa: "What?! I'm not going to kill the asshole, let me go!"
[Lisa breaks away. Just as she tries to escape, the lights suddenly go off]
?: "...Say bye bye."
?: "What's going on?!
?: "OMG!"
?: "Is everyone alright?!"
[The lights come back on]
Karen: "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"
