by Purples, it means any chance they have is in our hands. And where are we? Hunkered down in an old warehouse inhaling Girl Scout Cookies. That’s the real problem. Up until now, we were always working toward a goal. First it was escaping Serenity, but that was just the beginning. Next it was finding Tamara Dunleavy, billionaire cofounder of Project Osiris—only to have her deny she knows anything about it. Last, it was connecting with C. J. Rackoff, one of the Osiris DNA donors. We made a deal with him, even broke him out of prison, and were betrayed by him and Hector, his clone. If Tamara Dunleavy is a dead end, and so are the criminal masterminds we’re cloned from, what’s our next move? Sure, we have a lifetime’s supply of cookies, but that’s not what we really need. We need a future.
