If Parker's attempt to talk to Gail was sincere then he already is swayed to "our side." In that case, giving him a means of contacting us (one-way, safe drop site, etc) to provide intelligence data would be invaluable. I fail to see, however, how we could obscure the relationship of the person he sees with the MARSupials. Why else would that contact be made?
I thought Harden was fired also, but then I considered what the word "termination" really means in the B-B idiom and began to wonder what else could be the case. Is he dead? Is he still in B-B's employ? Is he hiding and looking for friends? We could have two (unwitting/unwilling) allies out of this debacle.

I suspect some teenaged wannabe who has been watching too many episodes of Star Trek. Whatever the case, let's keep an eye on the situation.
Dr.D, has this person requested access to the Probes? If not under this name, under another? Please watch and ask Al-Q to really keep his ears walking as he scans the Outbounds. It could be important to enhance any screening functions he runs now.
