Obviously that's impossible. He will leave it in La Perdita, and then he will find that he can't stay separate from her.
Guess what, Euro, that's called addressing the issue. Good job. That's what I'm talking about. Doing it either in story or in the talk thread (which is the reason they were started, right?) is a good way to get things out of the way.

And also that it was not NOW the moment to bring out the fact about passport.

It was something they had delved with when they began advertising their venture. You can't go on the market saying "we are the best at challenging the unknow" if you haven't provided to basic need like false identities.

Kit was new for this kind of work? Sure.

But Kristogar Velo was not. Sonja Ljzavet the same. They both had spy background.
But what of the new guys? When were they given these false papers? No one knows of Dirk's former involvement with the government because he hasn't told them nor his possesing of a passport already. Who came up with the idea to get them documents since Velo and Sonja are no longer around? Who had the connections to get them? These are little things that help build a world that seems as though these people could actually be living in it.

More from the Italian Stallion:
As for the choice of Grimm for the mission, I can't argue about Danny's choice; but we can't just don't consider masks, banmdages and the usual comics/movie paraphernalia bacause they are "not real". What's not real "for real" is the Grimm character, because a skull without eyeballs and lips can't see and talk.
Gee, I guess this would also be considered addressing the issue. Know what, Euro, knowingly or not you just helped demonstrate my point for me. I threw out something. You came along and replied to it. This is something that this group has been missing for a long time. For a while there, the Tuesday night chats helped with these sort of things. But now, some won't participate in them at all; or when the story is brought up, the room degenerates into nothing but quick on liners and the story is ignored. Maybe we need to start communicating more just like what has happened in the last couple of days. Maybe it wasn't the friendliest of conversations, but it got people talking and thinking. So, I feel that I have done my job.

The final bit from The Eurostar:
You see, the team existed before Dirk Bell just entered the door without anyone objecting...
You know what? That's always bugged the hell out of me too. No one ever brought up the fact that a "gun maniac" (as some of you have refered to the character) and a skull-faced punker were just welcomed into the group with open arms and no questions. Now that's just plain silly.
