Three days have passed since your bathtub encounter with a woman seemingly on Holmes' payroll.

"Ugh... that waiting is killing me", the redhead hissed to herself as paced back and forth in her office in annoyance. Having such a close encounter with her own possible death only to find out her 'rival' had staged it all just to hear her say something had left her even more eager to meet 'him', and yet, still not a damn sign of his presence. The woman had assured her she'd meet him soon enough, but 'soon enough' was not nearly so in her mind.
Sighing, she grabbed her coat and headed out for a walk to get some fresh air.

You are just about out the door of your office when a blonde man confronts you flanked by two very tall figures dressed in trenchcoats, and fedora.
"Professor... I must insist on a meeting with you... My name is Derrek Trask, I have a proposition for you."

"Then I believe you are quite fortunate, Mr. Trask, for I believe we are very much meeting right now", she said, folding her arms. "Propose away, then." 5 in Agility into defense. (Total ph.defense: 9 (11 VS Blunt/Grappling)

"I have a series of products I am certain can protect this world from the rapidly growing metahuman problem, and I want to use your facilities to mass produce them." He said.

The redhead raised an eyebrow with curiosity.
"...Interesting. Do go on? What 'products' are we talking about here?" she asked.

"Oh nothing too special, just my Sentinels." He said as the large men removed their hats to reveal robotic metal faces.

"Impressive. Very interesting technological display, Mr. Trask... although, I must say, my facilities are not equipped for such a task. I back law enforcement organizations financially and scientifically, but I do not actually build their weapons. May I recommend perhaps contacting the military?" she suggested, smiling. 8 in Social Skills to keep up the good ole facade.

"I have tried that route. Unfortunately every time I offer a bid, pro-metahuman rights advocates try to block the project from their offices."

"Is that so? ...Are sentinels meant to deal with metahuman problems, then?" she asked.

"Yes, to trackdown, and capture them." He said.

"Oh? ...And I imagine there would be strict regulations and safety algorithms taken into consideration when it comes to which metahuman is to be tracked down and captured and which is to be left alone, correct?" the professor asked, smiling.

"Uhhh… Of course." He said clearly lying through his teeth.

"I see. Well, it's unfortunate that your efforts are not properly rewarded. But I'm afraid I can't help you, I'm sorry", the redhead said with a nod. "I wish you luck in your search, though." 10 in Psychiatry (Bluff/Lie) to likewise respond in kind.

"I see. Then we are done talking then." He said as the sentinel raised it's hand, and blasted you with a beam of some sort that froze you in place and left you unable to move like you're buried in cement.
