Mother: What do
you think about that body-in-a-bag thing?
Me: Well, on
some level I wonder at how surprised…
Mother: …people are, I know…
Me: I mean, you work for MI6 – now, I’m not saying you
should…
Mother: …expect that, but…
Me: …you’ve
gotta think something like that may be a distinct…
Mother: …possibility,
yes. I know.
Me: Did you see
how they got a man to ‘prove’ he couldn’t have padlocked himself in there?
Mother: Could he?
Me: What?
Mother: Could he do it?
Me: What? Padlock
himself inside his own holdall?
Mother: Yes.
Me: NO - Of
course not, he wasn’t Harry-bloody-Houdini!
Mother: I
thought you were going to say they managed to prove he could
Me: But it’s
ridiculous they actually paid a guy to attempt it THREE HUNDRED TIMES.
Mother: I bet
he really ached after that….Besides, you’d think these MI6 people would have
special talents like that, wouldn’t you….?
