47 — this is Agency, Diana here. I won’t be able to join you for the remainder of this mission, as I had a rather spicy curry earlier and my bowels are currently regretting it.
I will be sending one of my colleagues along to help you in my absence. I’m sure you and Clera will get along swimmingly.

Let’s start with the positives: I really like the vibe of this mission. Infiltrating the office out of hours really makes it seem like you’re breaking and entering, which is quite appropriate considering the subsequent missions too. I also really like the coffee machine with the camera attached to it too, which is not only a nice way to lure the administrator but it’s also a neat reference to the world’s first webcam.
Speaking of the administrator, I pretty much always go for his outfit as it’s pretty easy to obtain - even if you grab it whilst he’s still in his office. I find it’s far more consistent than grabbing a guard outfit, as they can be rather sensitive to your movement.
However, this is the only mission that I like less after learning to speedrun - and that’s purely because of how inconsistent it can be. Sometimes guards will home in on my position as I’m hacking despite doing nothing wrong, and other times I’ll just not get SA for silly reasons. I can do the exact same thing 20 times and have 20 different things happen. It makes it even more frustrating than Hidden Valley, as I at least understand what causes the random alerts.
Still, it’s a neat mission and I wish we had more Clera in the game. She was a neat little one off character that appeared for no reason and was never heard of again. Hopefully one day she comes back to the series at some point.
