This is hilarious; I love it. I particularly love Harold squawking in alarm over the comms.

Thank you! I'm really glad you like this. I love it so much when Harold panics/goes into human resources mode. It's one of the cutest things about expanding their operation in S3. It's like Harold went, "So now I have two special employees... which means this is actually a small business... which means I have to think about training and employee welfare and personal development! For Miss Shaw. Because John is such a model employee/totally lost cause." And now I'm imagining John's end of year review:

Harold: I also wanted to talk about your storage unit. I'm just a little concerned that it contains a large quantity of lye and what seems to be the equipment necessary to, er, make someone vanish. Is there any particular reason for that, Mr. Reese?

John: Well, Harold, there wouldn't be much point in having the lye without the equipment, would there?

Harold: John, you have a serial killer lair!

John: ... Yes?

Poor Harold. I don't think he realized quite what he was getting into when he decided to recruit former-professional-killers John and Sameen.

Ha, I guess he had a better idea with John, having apparently kept tabs on John for a while even before the S3 episode (which I 100% loved, would pay money for an entire flashback season of Kara and John being horribly efficient together). Maybe that's why Harold focuses his character-development efforts on Shaw. ("I think this assignment will be very good for Miss Shaw. It's teaching her valuable people skills.")
