To her credit, Tess doesn't flinch at the news itself, her smile sticking to her face. In fact, she almost seems a little excited to hear it, and she shakes his hand firmly. Former DEA agent means he might have a bone to pick with his old bosses, means he might be bitter about being demoted or fired for getting stuck in a wheelchair. There's a lot of possibilities with that.

"Tess," she says. No last name today. "Nice to meet you, Hank."
