Anderson, in voice if not presence, explains the original plan they came in with. "Chief figured you were going to want a fairly quick in and out given the magical circus that happened, so here's the official plan. You wandered in drunk because the subject left the doors between rooms open and was also very noisy. So you get taken in, sober up, get talked to about being a demanding drunk, and get to leave the room in official identity protection blankets."<br/><br/>That the doors weren't oriented the right way for where the armored officer was pointing is immaterial. The conversation and 'proof' is all getting fixed up in post, after all, so why waste time doing more than the minimums needed to give the editors something to start off of. Unfortunately, the high danger that got called in means that all the officers need to stay armored up completely lest there be reasons to put people into lock up for disenchanting.<br/><br/>Still, there's at least active conversation on commlink short wave radio bands, because for some reason or another that's not a popular communication mode as far as policy goes. It may be all the interference that happens constantly. But it's conversation and fairly unrecorded, so hey. At least there's something to do other than sit on your thumb during the drive back.
