Cassidy was no stranger to early mornings, though she didn't mind the late ones either. The life of an undercover agent wasn't as rigid and structured as a uniformed agent or soldier. You did what you had to in order to blend in. Unfortunately some of her fellow members of Vanguard didn't share her lackadaisical approach to days off. If she planned on making what was as close to a 'team breakfast' as they got, she would wake up.
By now, a lot of the more tenured members of Vanguard were familiar with her and as such weren't as immediately hostile to unfamiliar faces as they had been in the beginning. In contrast to her cold pragmatism and serious tone towards missions, she was more prone to randomly change forms when around the compound whenever she wanted. This time, she was bored of more modest appearances, and decided to have a small amount of fun at breakfast. She decided that today she'd masquerade as the most famous spy of all. Truth be told, she was never a fan of the Bond films for their unrealistic approach, but she appreciated their popularity. Of course her choice of using Timothy Dalton's 007 instead of a more famous one was just her being difficult as usual.
She walked down into the kitchen, seeing Imogen cooking. "I'll do anything for a woman with a knife." she said, replicating Bond's legendary attempts with women. "To what do we owe your return?" he asked, before looking down at the food. "And your... generosity?"

More people joined them, most having the same questions Cassidy asked, though they all likely knew the answer. Heamet appeared from nowhere, as usual, and teased her. She turned towards the man, and tugged on the lapel of her suit jacket. "Oh please, I'm an extraordinary gentleman." she said with a slight amount of indignance. "I'll have you know that James Bond does not struggle with charming women."

“Jake, how nice to see you again.”, Joan said as Jake appeared in a blast of smoke. “Can we now begin, shall we?”

"I don't know what they talked about, but when she was done drugging bureaucrats, she went and scoped out a Department of Corrections building... oh and she also copied a number out of someone's notebook... turns out it's a prison ID number." she rummaged under the pile of weapons she had assembled on table, looking for the piece of paper she had written the number down on, eventually finding it underneath an M203 grenade launcher, "Tada! I don't know about you, but I'd be quite interested to find out what this is all about... now I've left a breadcrumb trail so the Bozos at NAMT put the area under surveillance. When Vanguard show up I'm sure they'll get into a fight. If we get our preparation sorted, do you think we could slip into the building and find out who this person is?"

Do any of the tunnels turn underneath the building? If so, I might be able to get us inside. Provided that the floor doesn't have lead in it, but who lines the ground floor with lead?" He turns to Zara, and asks, "Any ideas, Delic?"

We need to get password to a computer terminal and we need the time to log on and do a search... and there will be security." she pointed out, "I can probably get a password, but I think it would still be a good idea to cut the security feeds or do something to stop whoever is monitoring the cameras from sending security."
"What if you did your phasing thing to knock the security room out and we broke in while the cameras are out?" she suggested, motioning at Joan to let him know who 'we' was, "You could even help redirect the guards at the Vanguard crowd. Two birds with one stone. If we are lucky, nobody will notice our involvement at all, just blame everything on the Vanguard folk which would then give us the element of surprise if we go after whoever it is Vanguard want to break out."

Like the NAMT, Sanctuary also had the area under surveillance, though they did not have access to the dozens of security cameras. They had to rely on Delic and a pair of high magnification binoculars on a nearby rooftop. It was a particularly boring job, but it was one she did well, "So..." she chirped down the radio, "Any gossip on what's going on at base? Fights? Romances? Anyone taking up tap dancing?"
The Sanctuary plan was the most complex of the three, though it was somewhat reliant on Vanguard appearing and causing chaos. So for now they waited, though the wait was almost over...
