Bishop went rogue, yet somehow Mr. Nobody keeps dragging her back in. According to her, this is the VERY LAST TIME she'll be involved with the Agency. All she has to do is find Project Aries and befriend Han Lue.
How hard could that be?

Bishop and Han were skirting around their developing feelings for each other. After everything that was thrust in front of them with Elle and Mr. Nobody's official documents citing that they were married and legally Elle's guardian, they didn't have time to address their feelings.
Han was confused about his. Of course, he loved Brooklyn, so much. He envisioned a future with her, and that future was ripped away from him. Han had been dealing with Brooklyn's death poorly – which was shown by his actions of sex, alcohol, and shaking hands with the Yakuza. But when it came to Bishop, there was something Han couldn't deny. They had something, and Han didn't want it to disappear.
Bishop didn't want to confront them. Han was still very much in love with Brooklyn, she didn't want to feel like the replacement. Even though, they were still sleeping together, even after everything that happened. Bishop knew it was a bad idea to continue sleeping together – feelings would only increase with them being sexual.
The topic came up shortly after Bishop's trust in Han, whether they'd end their friends with benefits. That conversation totally shifted to them having sex and getting no answer to the bubbling question. But in the end, the question did have an answer – they weren't going to stop, not until one of them left.
Neither of them could leave even if they wanted to. Mr. Nobody made it that way, almost like he was playing matchmaker. Bishop and Han were technically married, the documents were signed, somehow. Legally, in Japan, they were married. It was probably legalized in the United States as well, since they were both born there. Bishop didn't look too much into the legality of Mr. Nobody's notary.
Bishop still had her apartment, even though she hadn't been over there in over a month. She had been "living" with Han and Elle in his. The apartment at the garage was a good place to stay for the time being, but they had to come up with new living arrangements with Elle. Even though Elle was eleven, she couldn't be around everyone who came and went throughout the garage. People were already starting to give Han looks upon having a eleven-year-old in the garage.
"Elle, come on." Bishop finished typing on her laptop, editing her upcoming schedule for tutoring sessions. She had a new American student starting that day, she wanted to catch him before class began to go over a few things. But today was also Elle's first day of her new school.
Bishop finally got the paperwork together with the help of Benjamin - she owed him dinner for the next month for the forgeries. He wanted an explanation as to why Bishop suddenly had a husband and a daughter, and Bishop intended to explain it to him, just not right now.
"Elle!"
"I look stupid!"
Bishop closed her laptop after saving the document. "Well, I can't help that. We need to keep you under wraps." Bishop shoved her laptop and the file on Sean Boswell into her bag. "I hate the uniform just as much as you do, kid." Bishop watched as Elle came out of the bathroom, looking miserable in the uniform. "Didn't your academy have a dress code?" Bishop asked.
