[OOM: How do you draw the attention of a psychopathic ex-government employee who's stolen the Ark of the Covenant? Well, first, you make some very public appearances specially calculated to annoy him... Warning for mice.]
Ray enters the bar from somewhere rainy and misty that doesn't look at all like his usual Manhattan alley. "Bar?" he says. "I've just been very nearly literally up to my knees in mice, both living and dead. I need to shower and have these clothes fumigated, but when I come back downstairs, I could really use something too artificial even for rodents to eat for lunch."
When he returns, Bar has obliged. It's not so much the vegan meatlike patty on the faux burger that bothers him. It's the fact that it came with apparently perfectly normal French fries.
He sits down to eat it anyway. Some days are like that.
