![]() Porn Stepmom Bancroft is here alone, for reasons that are self-evident from the nickname. Either Ortega badgered her boss into giving her a warrant, or it's more Bancroft fuckery. Poe assures him that, unfortunately, he was powerless to stop this one, even though he really wanted to in order to follow his guest's instructions. Then Ortega sneaks into the city morgue, carefully avoiding being spotted, and pads up to a cell labeled "empty." She opens it, and an automated voice says "this cell is empty." These things don't seem to have very good internal sensors though, because Blondie is in it. Then we see Blondie being thrown off the boat again. I'm pretty sure at this point that Ortega either isn't capable of regret, or just regrets everything about her own existence so much that no one thing can phase her. Soon, Prescott the lawyer arrives to retrieve Kovacs, telling Ortega that she's going to regret it really badly if she keeps doing this kind of shit. Then Officer Sanely walks up and tells Ortega that no, she cannot just arbitrarily hold Kovacs overnight just to fuck with him. Kovacs wryly comments that he's not sure she's any better than he is, and certainly not any more self-controlled. ![]() She tells him that if he goes far enough, she WILL be there to stop him. ![]() I don't think it's been hinted at, and like he said it's not like there'd be any proof. He may or may not be telling the truth about the black ops part. What it all comes down to in relation to her question is, basically: He's been a mercenary hired gun and human trafficker. *Very* black ops, he doubts there was ever an official record of it anywhere. Just a detail that might be important later.Īnyway, in response to her (inane, but whatever) question, Kovacs tells Ortega that before he was a Falconerite, he was a Protectorate black ops agent. Wait, when did she start assuming that Kovacs had that kind of moral compass? True, he told her he was planning to choose death over Laurens Bancroft earlier, but he framed that as a pride/will-to-live thing rather than a moral objection.Īlso, her asking him this after finding him outside the Jack-It-Off specifically suggests that she knows about Laurens' predilections. Before leaving him in his cell, she asks him why he's still working for Bancroft after all that he's learned about the man at this point. On the other, she was like this even *before* that started happening, so I really don't know what to think of her at this point.Īt the station, Ortega admits that she can't really charge him with anything with the available evidence, but she's going to hold him overnight anyway because she's Kirsten Ortega. Almost every time Kovacs goes somewhere unsupervised, criminal violence happens. ![]() On one hand, the narrative has sort of proven her right. But, naturally, Ortega made sure she was the officer onsite to make the arrest, so that doesn't matter. Kovacs is arrested for "organic damage." Seems like a hard case to make, given that the other three combatants all vanished so it's impossible to say who inflicted injuries on whom. New contact acquired! Kovacs is just Commander Sheparding this, wandering around the hub city and building the team by committing crimes. Kovacs tells him to hurry up and GTFO before he gets hit by a facial ID or something, and Hubert gratefully does. Hubert looks like he's about to do the same thing, but is taken aback when he sees Kovacs just stand in the searchlight, drop his gun, and raise his hands up. Then a police hovercar arrives, causing the cyborgs to scamper before they can get arrested. There's a short punchout that I can't really say much about because between the darkness and the shakycam it's really hard to see what's going on. They appear to go for Hubert first, but that may just be because his back was turned. "You shouldn't have come back from the dead" or "you shouldn't have come back to this neighborhood after the last time we warned you about heckling everyone about your stupid daughter." Could just as easily be either. Whoever sent Dimitri last time is now trying a semi-mechanized approach.īefore attacking, they shout "you shouldn't have come back," but it's not clear if they're addressing Kovacs or Hubert. It doesn't seem likely to me that these guys are just random robbers choosing to go after two armed and strong-looking men.
