~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Introductions had been made in the wreckage of the restaurant - where the bullets had wrecked more damage than the punches in a Muy Thai/Krav Maga deathmatch - along with an agreement to cooperate, FBI and Immigration alike. That was when Don asked Alice to step aside with him for a momentary chat...

"I know you, don't I?" Don asked.

"There are over a billion of us," Alice replied.

"No, I mean I know you."

"I know," Alice said. "But Val said to tease you a little, and that's as far as I go."

"Val? You know Val?"

"I suppose I should be flattered that you weren't ogling all of us bridesmaids that day."

"You were - I - I'm sorry," Don said, changing tacks before he put his food in his mouth. "We should get back to the case."

Alice nodded. You were right, Val, she thought to herself.
