[ Jack takes a shaky breath as he turns on the MID. He can do this, this gadget he's hooked up to is almost like a radio. It's just sort of stuck to his hand for the foreseeable future. Which is still a step up from jamming a needle in his arm on the regular to boost his EVE. ]

How are we suppose to know what country someone is from? Is Ireland like the Orient?

[ He takes a deep breath. This ain't going anywhere except in circles. ]

I know where things like that are because I've looked at maps. And the signs are on roads and stuff like that.
