Timeline: MD003 1300 hrs

Jenn walked in to the SCIF and looked around the people working there at this time. She smiled and then said, "Ok heads up everyone, the boss is, I have an assignment for you." She patiently waited for her men to look at her.

Willie was working on compiling the intel he had collected about the Maquis in the system when he heard Masters call out. He turned his attention to the boss. "What ya got boss?"

Billy and Tobias had been working on tracking a lost asset. Since the conversation with the XO and COB things with Beckett had been going somewhat better. When Jen spoke up both men looked toward her. "Yes ma'am what do we have." Billy said as he tried his best not to look at her with love in his eyes.

"Ok," She clapped her hands together and then continued, "Now, as you know we are on our way to our next assignment and I heard we're going to have a new Cardassian liaison on board soon. A Glen Brecat Jerane. I want to know as much about him as possible. The good, the bad, the ugly, everything!"

Tobias stood up straight. "Uh, ma'am is there a reason that we need a liaison on this ship at all. I mean we have access to the Detapa Council and the Cardassian Intelligence files. I don't see..."

Tobias' voice trailed off as Billy tapped him on the shoulder and motioned that he should sit. The gesture was a way of letting the junior man know that all would be explained shortly.

Jenn looked to Beckett and said, "Very good question, mister Beckett. Yes there is a reason. We were ordered to take one on. Is that a satisfying answer?" She tried really hard not to show the amount of sarcasm in the tone of her voice.

She turned on the main view screen. "This is the file photo we received of him. We did receive an extensive personnel file. The Glen will be liaising between starfleet, in this case the Pioneer and the Cardassians. Now Mister Beckett, can you tell me something about him?" She was just on his skin, trying to figure out if he would be smart enough to state some facts from his file. She stood in front of the view screen like a teacher with her arms crossed waiting for him to answer.

Tobias skimmed the file for a moment. "I can tell you a bunch of facts, but that is all things you already know. However, there is something between the lines sort of speak here. If you read his service record you will see that the CDF is happy to be rid of him. He seems to be nothing special as far as Cardassian officers go. Most likely he is being pawned off on us so that he is out of the way on Cardassia." He knew she was being sarcastic, but he refused to take the bait.

When Tobias had finished Billy let out a soft whistle as he finished reading the file. "I am going to have to agree with Beckett. This guy is nothing special."

"I worry about someone being brought in that isn't special." Willie started. "What if that is the picture they want to paint of him so we don't do our due diligence."

"I like that thinking, mister Jackson," Jenn said, "I don't want to do half work. So, Beckett, you're the intelligence specialist, I want you go through that file, and the Cardassian intelligence files, leave no stone unturned. And Jackson, as my Human intelligence agent I would imagine you have some contacts on Cardassia, you think you can contact them and find out some information we don't know about our new guest?"

Willie made a note on his PADD. "Yes ma'am I have a couple contacts I can hit up and see what is out there that is not in the reports." He said with a smile

Tobias nodded. "Yes ma'am I will get started right away."

Billy kept his pride well hidden, but he was proud of her. Jenn had taken control of the situation and got the ball rolling. She will be a great officer. "Ma'am anything for me?"

"Yes, Billy, I want you to go through the Starfleet intell files. See if he was worth Intell's intrest or not." She looked to her team. "Ok, everyone, I want a report by the end of the day." She then nodded and strode off to her office to do her own things.

"You will have it." Billy said as he cracked his knuckles he rather loved a good data mining assignment. He turned toward his computer with a rather satisfied look on his face.

Willie gave a nod as he was internally picking who he wanted to contact first that would get him the most information for the lowest price. As he started to walked away a light bulb went off. He knew exactly who he had in mind. "This should be fun' He thought as he got on task
