It has been quite a long time since you last completed a 100% successful mission. The memory of your recent failure gnaws at you. You were devastated by how you missed some of the enemies! It's so frustrating for you, considering you’re trying every possible way to minimize damage—yet again, you let one or two enemies slip through and damage the base.

You are currently in your office, slumped over your chair, feeling the weight of defeat. Scattered papers of your once-great plan now lie in disarray on your desk, a reminder of how it backfired due to a new type of enemy that kept pressing you relentlessly. Oh, how much you just want to quit for a week, to take a break and then investigate the issue later... As you ponder your next move, there's a gentle knock on the door. It's Hung, asking politely if he can enter. His timing is both a distraction and a potential source of much-needed comfort.

"Can I come in, Doc?"
