Summary: Before he gets into dreamsharing, Eames is a bit of a cocky little bastard, but he's good with people. Not a good man. Later, working dreams, Eames gets even better at playing people. He still isn't a good man. All right, he's still a cocky bastard too. Arthur is not impressed.
More or less stand-alone story, though the prologue refers to the series (two parts) as whole.
