"Breaking news! In a suprise statement, Trauma Team have just announced a new level of coverage, above even the coveted platinum contract; Treasured Minion.
The number of slots available for Treasured Minion status are extremely limited, but guarentee full recovery from any illness, malady, or braindeath, up to 20 minutes or more after the fact! The only slight caveat is that the doctor involved in the treatment is highly eccentric and patients must pretent they are loyal members of her growing criminal empire in order to maintain their Treasured Minion status. Buy now!"
In other news, I loved this chapter. I'd kinda been feeling like Jean and Rus would betray Taylor over something for a while, but you set up the signs well here, I thought. Not sure why Taylor told them what the score was beforehand though; that seems ill advised. She might have still been a bit too trusting (fortunately, she's now been cured of that, as well as finally having her shrivelled sense of mercy properly amputated).
What was Jean/Rus plan when they let her go up against all the people on one end of the van though? At the time, I thought "ah, they're planning to betray her, and thus are acting suspisciously to give more hints", but... if she actually got killed, what were they gonna do? Whoever their client was would not have been best pleased to have their golded goose killed, no? Guess it depends who the mysterious client was...
I also loved the bit with the british operatives being entirely fooled by her terrible impression of a rich english girl and thinking she's a supersy. She even has mysterious high-tech gadgets and everything; there's no way she's not legit!
