Two men were walking down a dimly lit corridor rolling the Handlers dead body to the burner
"I'm asking out Sharon tonight."
"Sharon from Payroll?"
"No, Sharon from Janitorial."
"Ahh."
"I like her smile. Plus, my apartment's a disaster. How many pickups we got?"
"Two"
"Good, 'cause I am starving."
"Oh, you're starving?"
"I am starving."
"Fried wontons at Mama Lee's when we're done?"
"Eh..."
"What?"
"I just... It's too much MSG."
"Oh, you bought the propaganda."
"Yeah."
"There's nothing wrong with MSG, my friend."
"All right, you ready? On three. One, two..."
"Aah!"
"What?"
"She moved a bit. No, no, no, no, no. No, it... it says right here, she's dead."
"It's probably just intestinal gas. I had one last week that farted all the way into the oven. It's... "
"Get me to a hospital." Handler said quietly
"Don't think that was intestinal gas."
"Oh, shit."
"You can probably kiss those wontons goodbye."
3 Months Later
The handler walks up to the commission in red heels and a black coat
She looks up at the commission doors and smiles
"Ah, shit. The Handler's back."
"Uh-oh.
"She's back." Handler walks in and takes off her jacket holding it for someone to pick up. As she takes it off she reveals a red outfit. When no one comes to grab it she just continues to walk up the stairs. Handler struts past the tube room. Herb and Dot take notice and peeks out of the room to make sure they weren't crazy
"The Handler?"
"She's back." Handler walked until she came across two double doors with the words The Handler written on a gold plaque. She opens the door but stands shockingly as she notices the furniture in her room has been flipped. She turned to where her desk would be and stood in shock
"AJ!"
"Welcome back. And let me say, your recovery has been an inspiration to us all.
"Well... If it wasn't for this metal plate in my head from the Shanghai job,I don't think I'd be here." AJ pulled out a cigarette from a metal case and the handler went to grab one "I didn't expect to see you" but the case was closed before she could grab one "until the board...meeting. What's going on?"
"Um, during your rehabilitation, certain management changes were made, unavoidable departmental reorganizations I'm sorry to say..."
"You're not firing me." Handler said in shock
"Of course not."
"Oh, thank God."
"We would never dream of it. However... You will be demoted." AJ said
