After successfully jumping onto a train you meet your contact, Dr Lobatse. She's pleased to see you, and to hear Steve. The hellos are interrupted by a guard, who you'll have to climb onto the roof, and jump to another train, to avoid.

On top of the train Steve and Lobatse come up with a plan to throw off your pursuers, involving a bag of marbles. As the two trains slow, you, Paula and Lobatse leap from one to the other.
