Vera stood in the middle of the Taxi Headquarters. The Taxi Boss was eating a plate of tacos. Bois Aussi leaned against the wall, muttering aobut bush pilots and rotten luck.

"If we make a full assault on the mill, we can prbably overwhelm them," said Vera.

"Not if you want to have any agents left alive to prevent the bombing of the Fleet," said the Taxi Boss.

"I have a hard time making that my priority," said Vera, looking down in shame.

"Excuse, me?" said Bois Aussi.

"Leaving my agents alive or stopping the bombing?" There was a decided chill in the air.

"I say! Excuse me?" Bois Aussi's voice was getting shrill.

"It's just that it's Harv..."

"If I may?"

"That's okay, Toots, I'm with you!" said Vivaldi. "Harv owes me twenty bucks."

"I hate to be a noodge, here, but is there supposed to be a keg of dynamite with a lit fuse sitting over here in the closet?"

"WHAT?!?!" everyone screamed at once.
