you know you've got me walkin' on the sidewalk

All told, it doesn't take long between the time Thane teleported out of the construction site to the time he teleports back in, and paramedic at gunpoint with him( … )

Kids, I was really hoping that your last honcho would have schooled you in baseline-nominal progress reports. You don't want me to come see how you're doing, I don't want to come see how you're doing, so this is why you tell me things, children. Even if you have made absolutely no progress.

Here. I'll demonstrate for you.

"Agent Thane, we stopped by the Doctor's house and inquired as to his whereabouts from your freakish doppelganger, but he was unable or unwilling to give up any information."

Or maybe,

"Agent Thane, we've been reviewing the CCTV across the city for signs of the Doctor, but he hasn't been seen at any of the monitored streets or intersections."

Or even,

"Agent Thane, we're really very sorry that our door-to-door investigation hasn't produced any reliable information, but we did get this very nice scent hound and one of the Doctor's old shoes!"

Something like this. I'll be expecting one.
