Brigadier mobilizes to extract captured allies

The Brigadier's Command Jeep sits dust-churned in the temporary HQ courtyard with its canvas roof rolled back against evening chill. When the Brigadier abandons protocol to go directly to Reception Centre Five, the jeep transitions from standby vehicle to emergency transport. Benton clips the handset to his belt while the Brigadier scribbles a route on a crumpled street grid, and Ogden attends to its faulty antenna—transforming the jeep into a mobile command unit for breaking institutional paralysis.

Before: Unused staff vehicle parked in the courtyard despite the crisis, showing signs of hasty mobilization.
After: Turned into immediate transport with engine idling unevenly, front grille bearing a crack from recent barrier contact—now the physical means to bypass bureaucratic delay.
