'''Briefing'''

Suga', things are goin' from bad to worse. We got word that the [[Syndicate]] already delivered all them bombs to those Crusader boys in [[the Resistance]]. 

Now, I got myself a little idea of where they ''could'' be in the tunnels, but I ain't givin' you a guarantee that you'll find somethin' down there, suga'. You're gonna have to go down there and destroy any sorta thing that looks like they might be usin' for bombs. 

Also I got word that the gal leadin' the charge goes by the name of Poster Gal. We catch her, we can put a stop to this bombin' plot before it gets started. 

*{{green|Thanks for the information. I'll make sure to stop this here and now.}}

I know you will, suga'. We're gonna make sure that [[Tyrant|Cole]]'s little hospital won't be getting blown up by those lunatics. I'm one for free speech and all, but blowin' up a hospital just to prove a point? I don't wanna live in a world where those kinds of people are considered the 'good guys'.

:'''Resistance Recruit:''' So I was talking to one of 'em mary-lous, right? They're all 'oh, don't blow up the hospital.' Can you believe it? It's like they don't wanna win this war or something.

{{Mission Clue|Name=The real brains|Text=You defeated Poster Gal, but discovered that she isn't the brains behind the bombing operation! As she collapsed, she laughed that you were too late - a group of Resistance led by a man named Double Barrel has already planted bombs all around [[Nova Praetoria|Nova]] and are planning to blow them up!}}

===== {{UL|Disarm the Resistance bombs in Nova!}} =====
'''Unnecessary Solicitation'''

Wha? They already got their bombs set to go? You gotta stop 'em, suga'! I'll get some of my boys to comb the streets, but you're gonna have to be point on this little operation!

{{Mission Objective|Entrance=|Primary=Disarm the Resistance bombs in Nova!|Secondary=Disarm 4 bombs|Additional=|Completion=You've disarmed all the bombs, but there are still more left in the Memorial Hospital!}}

{{EdNote|note=This takes place outside in Nova Praetoria. The bomb locations are shown on your map if the "Mission Objective" option of the map is selected}}

{{Mission Clue|Name=Ominous Message|Text=You disarmed all the bombs in Nova, but an audio message played on the final one, clearly recorded by someone in the Resistance...

{{blue|You got us good, gettin' those bombs, {{Character}}. Too bad, you aren't lookin' upward, huh? Them bombs, they weren't gonna send much of a message. At worst, they bought us time. At best, they were gonna increase the body count. See, right now, as you are listenin' to this, we got ourselves a squad inside the hospital. You ain't gonna be able to stop us before the whole building goes kaboom! I just think it's too bad I couldn't have metcha face to face to take you out myself! - This is DB signing off.}} }}

'''Unnecessary Solicitation'''

Let's hurry this up, suga'!

{{Mission Briefing|Contact=Cleopatra|Text=What's that? 

Bombs in the hospital?! What do they think they're doing? Suga', you gotta be the one to get in there and take care of this! I'll make sure the situation doesn't get outta hand out here. 

{{blue|Members of the Resistance working undercover for [[Calvin Scott (Praetorian)|Calvin Scott]] should inform him of what is happening - before going inside the hospital.}}

*{{green|I'm on it. (Start Mission)}}}}

{{hidden|Contacting Calvin Scott|content=
{{Mission Briefing|Type=Briefing|Contact=Calvin Scott (Praetorian)|Text=

{{Character}}. Good to hear from you. What's your current situation? You're working with Cleopatra, right?

*{{green|Right. There's a bombing plot happening at the hospital.}}

:Yes, I'm aware of that. Double Barrel is working with some of the Syndicate to set it up. You may think it's extreme, but sometimes these things have to be done to move progress forward against Cole's regime.

:*{{green|Are you out of your mind? Blowing up a hospital is progress?}}

::Out of my mind? No, I'm not out of my mind, {{Character}}, I'm just focused on what has to be done.

::The people need to see that Cole is fallible, that Cole is just a man. A blow to the hospital would show that Cole can't protect the people from everything. But, not today. What's more important is keeping your cover, and your cover involves saving that hospital.

::We need you deep in the Loyalists, {{Character}}, and sometimes that means making sacrifices. When you take down Double Barrel, make sure to plant some tracking bugs on him - that way we can see where they take him and bust him out later on.

::*{{green|Alright, Scott.}}

:*{{green|So you want me to let them do this?}}

::Not today, {{Character}}. It looks like Double Barrel has run into some bad luck on this one. His mission on the hospital is important, but not as important as keeping you as an undercover agent in the Loyalists. 

::We'll need you to go in there and take him out to stop the bombing plot. Oh, also, try to plant some tracking devices on him and the soldiers you defeat. It'll help us break them all out of whatever prison the PPD send them to.

::*{{green|Will do, Scott.}}

*{{green|I am, but I have a question, first. What happened with Monroe?}}

:Monroe?

:Ah, yes. He's been helping us out a great deal. Some members of his Syndicate have been giving us very important information on the ineer workings of Cole's regime.

:I've heard about the trouble you're running into, actually. I may be able to shed some light on it.

:*{{green|Shed away.}}

:Monroe says there's a split in the Syndicate, that the head of the group was ''killed.''

:There is a power struggle going on at this very moment.

:The group that you've been fighting is a group of 'rebel Syndicate' - if you could say that about a group that is centered around organized crime.

:They're seeking to ''use'' this cell of the Resistance they found towards their own ends.

:*{{green|And so the hospital bombing plot was their doing}}

:Exactly. I ''wish'' we could claim credit for it -and carry it out- but doing so would not only reveal your cover as a member of the Resistance, but it would also aid a group that seeks to undermine all of the Resistance.

:You'll need to carry out your orders and take down everyone you find in that hospital - especially the Syndicate.

:Just make sure to plant any tracking devices you have on Double Barrel - we'll need it to get him out of the prison he'll be sent to.

:*{{green|Understood. I'm on it}}

{{Mission Clue|Name=Calvin Scott's Plan|Text=You spoke with Calvin Scott regarding what to do about the bombing plan in the hospital. He asked that you ensure it doesen't happen to keep your cover, but to also plant some tracking devices on the resistance soldiers you defeat. This way the Resistance can break them out wherever the PPD take them.}}}}}}

{{Mission Objective|Entrance=You walked by several hallways, filled with patients. You had to act as if nothing at all was wrong.

{{Mission Clue|Name=Richard Lombard, CEO|Text=You fought against Richard Lombard inside Cole Memorial Hospital. He seemed to be the Syndicate's contact with the Resistance. Possibly the man who helped them plan this entire scheme

The identification he had on him shows that he is a Senior Executive for Altman Industries, the very same company that the Resistance stole these bombs from! If what Lombard said is right, there could be many others like him within the Syndicate, maintaining high positions of power within the corporations of Praetoria.}}

'''Debriefing'''

You did good today, {{Character}}. You went and saved all those people in the hospital from certain death. Those Crusader types, they're totally out of their minds. 

You mentioned that a CEO was there, right? I'm gonna be makin' sure that is taken care of. I think we all are underestimatin' the power of the Syndicate, especially if they supposedly have members in high places like this. 

Your work isn't over though, {{Character}}. [[Chief Interrogator Washington]] contacted me while you were in the hospital. Looks like he's got himself a lead on where the Resistance is storin' all this information of theirs. You up for one last hurrah?
