John McClane has one of the better accommodations in the place, reserved for minor sentences and those who help in police investigations. He's even got a barred and metal-meshed window that he's currently gazing out of, leaning against the wall of his cell.

There's even the faint scent of cigarette smoke. Seems the ex-chief knows how to work the system.

She's far less hesitant to approach John McClane than she was most of the other prisoners. His exoneration is a priority, though the case is rather complicated. Halting outside his cell, Barbara turns her chair toward him and inquires, "Is there anything I can do for you, Mr. McClane?"

[yippiekiyay]

"Yeah," he says, with a wry smirk.

"Make some room on your lap and wheel me outta this dump."

[sibyllant]

With a grin, Babs turns a rueful look on the lap in question and then a scrutinizing one at McClane.

"We'll call it Plan B," she says lightly. "But we're definitely getting you out of here. Though," she sighs, "I'm sure you've heard that lots from everyone. Still, and I know how egotistical this sounds but I honestly believe it to be true, with my father and I on the force now? It will make a difference. My name is Barbara Gordon. Pleased to meet you, Mr. McClane."

"Pleased to meet you," he responds in kind.

"And thanks for joining up with the force. We can use all the help we can get."

Apparently, he still considers himself a member.

"Should I have heard of you and your dad?"

"Oh, I don't think so," she says with a laugh, though she's not about to say that she knows who he is as much from the movies as from the files. It would surprise her to know she's just as fictional in his world. "Do you know who's taking care of your case at the moment?"

[yippiekiyay]

Fortunately for her, he never much cared for that Adam West show.

"Some half-ass public defender. Legal system sucks here. Not that it's much good anywhere else. I'm hoping the forensics people can figure out how the he'll this all happened. "
