In Between, TBW 3.13x, The Pyramid
This “in between episodes” story takes place after The Pyramid when Jaime gave the bionic pack from her arm to an alien in order to save Planet Earth; and before The Antidote where Rudy is found fishing at an OSI 8 facility in Georgia.

***

Rudy exploded into Oscar’s office carrying a cup of coffee, unaware he had slopped coffee on Oscar’s carpet, as he firmly closed Oscar’s door. “Oscar, you cannot permit her to lose a bionic cell pack without providing an explanation! Let alone steal a crystal from my safe and not return it!”

Oscar, sitting behind his desk, didn’t raise his head, choosing to appear focused on the briefing papers he had been reading before his “calm” was interrupted. After a bit of time, he asked, “Rudy, how is your patient?”

Rudy, even more agitated, replied, “She’s fine! She’s threatening to release herself so she can return to Ojai and get back to her classroom.”

“Good for her!” Is she ready to be released?”

Rudy, responded, more emphatically, “Yes, but she’s got to first tell me where that bionic pack and my missing crystal is!”

Oscar had spoken with Jaime, privately, in her hospital room. She had assured him the bionic pack was not in the hands of any threat and used for a good cause. The empty-suit she dated backed her up. That was all Oscar needed to know. He was more sure of Jaime and her counterpart, Steve, and their integrity that that of his own.

Oscar finally put down his briefing papers to look at his friend and coworker of many years. He couldn’t help but notice the vein bulging from Rudy’s forehead. He calmly implored, “Rudy, send her home.”

Rudy thrust his coffee mug down on Oscar’s desk, breaking it, and sending coffee all over the briefing document. “NO! I’VE GOT TO ACCOUNT FOR THESE THINGS. SHE CAN’T JUST GO AROUND AND LOSE A NUCLEAR DEVICE!”

Oscar had surreptitiously moved his knee to a certain spot in his desk and activated a button. Russ, along with the two OSI agents assigned to protect Oscar, immediately appeared. The two men quickly surrounded Rudy and secured him. (They had been trained to protect their subject and ask questions later.) Russ looked at Rudy, then to Oscar for instruction.

Rudy blurted out, “Oscar, I’ll report it to the NSB if you won’t! She can’t just go arou…” His anger thwarted when he realized he could not finish his sentence with the lower-ranked agents present.

Oscar smiled at his friend, “Rudy, you’ve been working too hard. I think you need to go fishing.”

Before Rudy could respond, he succumbed to the “knock out” rag placed over his nose by one of Oscar’s protection agents upon Russ' signal. He was laid gently to the floor. Oscar gave Russ his instructions and Rudy was removed from his office.

When the men were gone, Oscar took tissues and mopped up the coffee before returning to his reading. Based upon his conversation with the “empty suit” she dated, Chris Williams, they needed to fine tune the development of Rudy’s crystal more quickly. (He of course betrayed the alien’s request to “share with no one.”) Oscar planned to have procured funding by the time Rudy returned from his fishing trip so his friend could start on it. His thoughts were interrupted with his Los Angeles secretary telling him the Secretary of State was on the phone. He set the briefing paper aside.

Rudy woke a bit later wearing an orange down jacket and recognized he was laying near a river. He looked about to find a detailed map in a waterproof bag, tent, fishing pole, provisions, and a bottle of his favorite wine with a note attached, nearby.

He half-smiled when he read the note, in Oscar’s handwriting, “She gets under all our skin sometimes!”

Rudy looked at the map of the secret Georgia OSI base. A red X marked where he was his relationship to his favorite fishing hole. He accepted that the helicopter that must have dropped him was no where in sight, and he had no method of communication. He began to set up camp--relaxing as he did so.
