Better Part of Valor

Jarod's modus operandi thus far has been to collect newspaper stories. The Centre will attempt to establish a correlation between his selection process and his movements to predict his next location. By scanning the local and national press for stories which may interest him we hope to zero in on his location. Mr. Raines brought in Centre Psychogenic Project #0023, Angelo, to help on the Jarod Project. Currently, the Psychogenics Department has no official classification for Angelo's abilities. He has seemingly no personality of his own nor an ability to make a moral judgment, yet exhibits a sponge-like power to absorb personality data on others. Broots' search information on Jarod indicated he was in either Pennsylvania or West Virginia. Angelo's clipping search narrowed down to reveal a place called the Borodin Smokehouse in Pittsburgh. Centre received confirmation that Jarod had been there recently. Team dispatched to Pittsburgh and discovered Jarod had been at the SmokeHouse under the name of Vronsky. Additionally, the team learned that another man had also come by inquiring about Jarod, and he was given the red notebook. Later, Broots finds clipping of Jarod in the Pittsburgh Chronicle, hailing him as hero fireman. Jarod is tracked to Fire House #16, and a coordinated assault was ordered. Jarod was nowhere to be found, but inside the fire house lay a friend of Miss Parker's on the floor nearly unconscious with his face bleeding. Miss Parker had thought her friend Michael Patrick was a pharmaceutical salesman, though he had been working for Mr. Raines and the Centre.

The red notebook retrieved at Jarod's lair revealed clippings with headlines: "Tri-River Warehouse Fire Claims Local Fire Fighter." "Fire Fighter Tamara Copeland Killed in the Line of Duty" "Fire Fighters Mourn one of Their Own." Numerous empty cans of aerosol cheese-like product were found in the space. Posing as a firefighter in Pittsburgh, Jarod uncovered the truth behind the arson death of firefighter Tamara Copeland, who died in a warehouse fire while trying to save Arson Investigator John Zimmerman. Jarod uncovered evidence that Zimmerman had been in league with the corrupt battalion captain Nick Harrigan in an arson insurance scam. Harrigan had rendered Copeland unconscious during the blaze and then ordered firefighters not to save her to cover up the scam. Jarod enacted revenge by gaining a confession from Harrigan by temporarily trapping him in a fire inside his home, built with money received from the scam.
