Pokemon: Help!

thistlechaserI've been using an emulator to replay Pokemon at work. First I played Emerald, and hated every moment of it. Damned insane pokemon made while smoking crack, I hated them all... enough so that I thought I was over the whole Pokemon thing. Eventually I got bored enough to try again, this time with Fire Red. Oh my, so much better! No crack! No god-awful stupid pokemon!
But now I have a big problem, and I hope it doesn't mean I'm dead in the water. Anyone recall the game enough to help? I've read a bunch of walkthroughs, but based on them something seems broken.
I'm in Saffron City, in the Silph Co building. I made it to the room with (I assume) Giovanni and the company president (and his secretary). The person I assumed was Gio ignored me, so I talked to the guy sitting on the couch. He handed me a Master Ball. *boggle* Wasn't that the reward you get AFTER beating Gio?
Then it got messier: All the Silph employees thanked me for getting rid of the Rockets, yet the Rockets were all still in the building and I could fight them. I cleared out half the building and went back to talk to Gio (fellow in black, standing next to the president's couch), but he still ignores me. I can't interact with him at all.
This leads to the big problem: I can't get into the Saffron gym because the door is blocked by a Rocket. The Rocket won't leave until I beat Gio. Gio is ignoring me... ><
On a related note: I'm very much enjoying the new Pokemon eps. The one about Jessie and James training to become Rockets? The one where Butch and Cassidy get info from a seemingly non-Rocket person (just like we did on the MUSH!). Yay!
