"I must admit Number Five, Willow Grace. The whole time I've been here, I've never met anyone quite like the two of you."
Willow was standing in the middle of Five and the Handler so it went down and up by height. She didn't want to be back at the Commission, she actually would rather be any where other then there. So she didn't care much for the Handlers 'compliments'.

"So many of them."
"Impressive, isn't it? Being part of something... so grand." the Handler paused. As she spoke all that could really be heard was indistinct chatter and phones ringing. "Come along."
"Whenever someone chooses the wrong path and the time line is changed, and the Commission gets a report from field agents on the ground. These field reports are sorted and assigned to a case manger. They determine if anyone needs to be..."
