Clone Team Assemble

CrowCity 31

"Mr. Howard is here to see you." Victoria Jenkins closed the halo-windows of her All-Seeing-Eye. "Send him in." Jackson Howard strolled into her office, hands outstretched and smiling wide. "Vicky, baby. How's the family?" "Save it Howard. Would you care to explain to me what is going on at the SYNC division?" "Only the best in satellite news." "I told you to use the programming to push a global food initiative that could compete with the success of Haas-Bioroid! Now I find out you've hired a clone to run security?" Jackson nervously fiddled with his red tie, "Well you must understand that since the NAPD has outlawed the Astro-script program it is increasingly difficult to push an initiative as such a speed-" "A clone Jackson? And I heard that you've been hiring out your services to all three of our competing megacorps! I am seriously beginning to wonder where your loyalties lay." "I assure you Mrs. Jenkins, the services I provide are well within the perimeters of my contract." Victoria cued up a screen shot and swiped the halo display right up to Jackson's face. "And what of these dangerous attempts at ferreting out hackers?" The screen showed an advertisement for a casting call to the NBN action entertainment team. "Well... the, ah... information we gain from the young cast of 'Explode-A-Palooza' works in tandem with our psychographic operations." "And this information needs to be acquired by you in person?" Victoria brought up halo footage of Jackson talking to three young actresses on the set. "Well, you know what they say. You want to do it right, better do it yourself, hehe."
