i was taken to a security office under the supervision of richard schroeder, chief security officer for fmi's headquarters building, and detained & questioned there. though lacking external indications such as the ritual tattoos, i believed at the time that schroeder was jaffa, a suspicion later confirmed. i reiterated my request to speak with ba'al, and provided schroeder with sufficient information to identify me to ba'al (or at least to pique his curiosity).

after an hour of waiting, ba'al arrived in the security office and ordered surveillance removed. at this point, i presented my identity to ba'al and provided the agreed-upon cover story, offering my services to ba'al in exchange for my dual-stated purposes of a). obtaining "revenge" on general o'neill, stargate command, and the team known as sg-1; b). obtaining transportation offworld at some future unspecified time. though ba'al was dubious as to my motivations, he did not have me taken out and killed, so i was at least permitted to make my case. we arrived at the mutual conclusion that, though he did not trust me, he would provide me with the opportunity to prove that i had his best interests and the best interests of his organization at heart. after a complex period of negotiation in which there was surprisingly little hitting, i was instructed to retrieve my belongings from the motel which i had been planning to use as home base while scouting out the lay of the land and join ba'al at the fmi corporate housing
