Barbara's normal table is near the door. She likes to watch people as they enter and leave the bar. Of course this means that people see her in return, and this might lead to people noticing something odd.

There's no coffee. Babs is still recovering from her recent trip to Mainframe, and she's pretty sure that the stimulant she used for that trip is still lingering in her bloodstream. Adding caffeine to that probably isn't a good plan. So she's got a glass of iced apple juice beading water and sitting undrunk on the table.

She's a bit distracted as she looks from holographic screen to holographic screen around her, each drawing data from a small box sitting in the center of the table. Whatever the notes and videos flickering in front of her are related to can't be too good because she looks really stressed out.

Eventually she hits a key, freezing all the screens, slides her glasses off to lay them on the table, and just settles her face into her hands, trying to take deep calming breaths.
