In the twilit streets of a disreputable part of Mexico City, a furtive figure darted from shadow to shadow. Slipping quietly into the darkened doorway of a run down cantina, the shadowy character pulled a veil tighter around the already masked face.

"Quien es?" asked a voice from the interior.

"It is me, you shtupid leetle man!" came the booming baritone of a woman who meant not to be trifled with.

"Que?"

"Nein! Mine name ist not Kay! Didn't they tell you to expect me?"

"Senora! Please! You have to go through the motions with me or I cannot let you in!"

"I vill be talking with your superior about this!"

"Whatever! Quien es?"

"Grumble grumble grumble... I have with me ze RED BOX!"

"But there is a small wind tonight."

"I don't give a light breeze in Farking about the wind, but if you insist, Not while the chowder is boiling."

"That's not going with the whole spirit of things, now is it? Enter, friend and be welcome. Damned Germans!"

"I heard zat!"

The large woman entered the cantina and pulled the scarf from her head.

"Ah, Frau Miyatake! It is about time that you arrived! We have been expecting you!"

"Not accordink to ze moron at the front door!"
