Research and Development

Research and Development was a virtual representation of one of Jacob Frye's genetic memories, relived by a Helix initiate through the Helix Navigator.
==Description==
Pearl Attaway tasked Jacob with stealing a set of internal combustion engines from the Millner Company.
==Dialogue==
Jacob entered Attaway's moving carriage.
*Attaway: Mr. Frye! I told you to make an appointment.
*Jacob: My schedule was open.
*Attaway: You're fortunate I like you.
Attaway gave Jacob a document.
*Jacob: "Internal combustion engines"?
*Attaway: Eight small syllables that mean a great deal of money. The engines will be delivered to Millner by train. Secure them for me and he will be... devastated.
*Jacob: I'll need a second train to pull this off... And I think I know just the man.
As Jacob was about to leave, Attaway stopped him.
*Attaway: So we have a deal, Mr. Frye?
*Jacob: "You're fortunate I like you", Ms. Attaway.
Jacob made his way to a police convoy escorting Ned Wynert.
*Policeman: The Captain's been looking for you for some time, Wynert.
*Ned: There are laws against arresting an innocent?
*Policeman: Shut your trap!
Jacob hijacked the carriage Ned was in.
*Ned: What the hell's going on out there?
*Jacob: A change of plans, that's what's going on!
*Ned: Frye? God damn it! Where do you come off rescuing me?
*Jacob: I believe it's pronounced "thank you", you ingrate!
*Ned: I operate on a strict policy of keeping people indebted to me, not the other way around. I hate having to return favors!
*Jacob: I could leave you here for the police to collect you.
*Ned: No, it's too late now. Just get us out of here.
Jacob opened the doors to the carriage.
*Ned: So, what do you want, Frye?
*Jacob: What makes you so sure I want something? Perhaps I saved you out of the kindness of my own heart.
Ned laughed.
*Jacob: Come on, let me tell you about the job.
Jacob, Ned and a group of Rooks stole another train and prepared to attack Millner's train.
*Ned: Millner's pulling a lot of cargo there!
*Jacob: Just be sure to make the transfer!
*Ned: Give 'em hell!Hurry up, man!We don't have all day! Get cracking!Get a move on, Frye!
Jumping aboard Millner's train, Jacob searched the crates for the engines.
*Jacob: Not this one!Not what I'm after!Here we go!
After finding the engines, Jacob detached the cargo wagon and defended Ned from the thugs aboard Millner's train.
*Ned: All right, boys and girls! You know what to do!What are you waiting for, friends? Get moving!
Jacob opened a crate holding an engine, which he and Ned inspected.
*Jacob: The internal combustion engine. The end of horse-drawn transport. It's like gazing into the future.
*Ned: And what is the going rate for the future, do you think?
Jacob gave Ned the document he had received from Attaway.
*Jacob: Oh, we're not selling them.
*Ned: You're giving them to your contact?
*Jacob: You'll be paid all the same.
*Ned: Who is this Pearl, anyway? How long have you been working with her?
*Jacob: She's a business partner. That's all you need to know.
==Outcome==
After freeing Ned Wynert from the police, Jacob was able to steal Millner's internal combustion engines for Attaway.
