  Summary

  The reasonable thing to do when you get flung three years into the past would be to sit down and think things through - make a plan.

  Fuck that noise - the Z-Team doesn't make plans. They have one (1) future dispatcher and current disaster hero to find and bully into taking care of himself and one (1) statistics-obsessed, jackass supervillain to murder and leave in a convenient ditch. Easy, straight forward - no problem.

  Robert would really appreciate it if someone would explain to him what the hell is going on.

  Summary

  There is a certain joy to being able to say, “Not my circus, not my monkeys,” and then sitting back and admiring the explosions while munching popcorn. This is how Chase feels about the Z-Team.

  Right up until the point where Robert gets hired at SDN.
