During the previous three months, Valerie had been working on a movie shoot in California, and Vicente had spent much of his time in New Orleans. At some point they each received an email from Rick notifying them that Enigma required them to leave on a mission on a specific date. JT and Max had already gone on a different mission.

Three newcomers arrived at the Lazy 8 Ranch: Marcus Johnson, a federal agent; Jack Craggs, special ops; and Father Martin O'Sullivan, a Catholic priest. Rick showed them around and answered what questions he could.

Vicente showed up the morning of departure and got acquainted with Jack, Marcus, and Father Martin over breakfast. Valerie made her entrance via parasail. She'd had a job on a movie starring some older guy named Schwarzenegger, and she's a bit perturbed that "the director" is jacking around with her schedule yet again.

Rick has been given very specific driving directions to a city called Gateway, Georgia [in our world, it corresponds to Atlanta]. When we arrive, it will be August, 2014. We're to make contact with Lori Griffin at a Motel 6. Vicente drives the Winnebago (towing a sports car) and Jack drives the Land Rover (towing two motorcycles). The journey takes a couple of days.

Lori Griffin is a strawberry blonde who is in her 20s but looks much younger. She is obviously terrified of something, and Father Martin works to calm her down enough that she can talk coherently.

Outside across the street from the Motel 6, Valerie sees a van and a large sedan, both with dark tinted windows.
