*4.* Lower-echelon humor: "I'm afraid the bottom's dropped out of the British Secrets market."
Upper-echelon thinking: No publicity, no trials. "And we don't want the midnight departure, the plane out of the country, followed by the press conference in Moscow."

Paxton, Ron -- Charles Noland in *Wayne's World* (1992)

*3.* Opening credits image: A graphic of a telephone receiver with a frayed and useless cord. Closing credits background a silent telephone receiver swinging on it's cord. Themes of distance, regret, longing and loss. // Concerns at the top levels of the London office that there may be a leak. At first, minor things, like papers and briefcases being taken out by people who were supposedly just going to lunch. // Lower-echelon paranoia: Arriving home and learning that a new "electricity man" had done some work in the house today. Reasonalble to check the fuse box area to see if there was anything new (bug?) present in the house.

True, Dan. I'm aware of both methods, and I use both. Sometimes the easy-to-google is just my way of sharing a favorite line. Either your thread or open thread.

*5.* The former field man now working the London office: He had worked in South Africa, where he had met and married a beautiful tribal woman. He brought her and her son with him when he was promoted to the Admin. level. Home some 10 years now and they lived happily in a suburb. The lad has grown into a proper little Brit, and the man's mother considers the boy her grandson, although
her son is not the boy's father biologically.
