** To be fair, Elise doesn't work for the government--she works for a "shadowy quasi-governmental agency" that gets up to some pretty sketchy things themselves. Hell, Elise may have killed Chris' former boss for his key card, and she suggested shipping the Lemonade Stand Gang off to ''Siberia'' to work a sweatshop. Elise's moral compass is not exactly the best aligned--identity theft is relatively low on the list of ethically objectionable.

And what does Chris see in Dan? If I were him, I would've gotten tired of his demeaning and egotastical behaviour years ago.
