This is actually a test of character: Will RVI troops engage in a firefight amongst a fuckload of civilians, injuring innocents en masse?

Will they consent to arrest and escape? Take hostages? Negotiate? This can get interesting.

And that provided the needed distraction. Now it's a stand-off, and you outnumber them. Unless the Navy troops start ganging up on you (most are unarmed and essentially all are too drunk and stoned to fight effectively) RVI team has the upper hand.

GIG said not invested enough to stay at the RP if it moved to another site, not not interested in returning at all.

Apparently, she thought a reboot was a good idea. I think she'll be back.

Unrelated side note: How about the portrayal of collateral damage, like it or hate it?

If you like it, I intend to keep it whenever there are shootouts around civvies.

Sorry I'm late. I have a question about protocol. Since Akane's the senior medical officer, does that mean Fatima, as a medic, is under her direct supervision?

I probably will say yes, but maybe Savage can lighten things up.

Yes, she is. But that's a formality: Akane doesn't get deployed, she stays aboard. Even on the ship, her authority is very limited.

Medics are pretty much autonomous: The Chief is responsible for making sure medics are up during their shifts, and she makes sure the XO is kept up-to-date on supplies requests, that's it. Aside from that, she's a regular medic.

When it comes to protocol, medics refer to the Chief Medical Officer as Chief, and the CMO refers to medics as Dr. + Last Name. Protocol applies only to formal situations: Informally, there are no protocol rules: Some people are on a First-Name Basis, others on a Last-Name Basis, others are referred to by nickname or rank or any other way they can come up with.

Probably Akane's. Things as they are, though, I doubt she minds: Patching Miller up is an overriding concern.
