IN PREVIOUS EPISODES...

Reed: Now follow Bailey's instructions, who, as of now, has official charge.

Bailey: What about the case? Who's going to handle it?

Reed: You. You know exactly how it's done.

Bailey: I refuse! I'm not taking the reins, Reed. I refuse the position.

***

Kelley: Daniel will be the new Section Chief of the MCI Unit.

Yoni: But Reed was Director of External Operations. Shouldn't he be the same?

Bailey: I would like to take this opportunity to announce that I am resigning as Director of External Operations.

Daniel: Bailey, are you sure about what you are going to do?

Bailey: Absolutely. From now on, I am just a Special Agent.

Daniel: In that case, I will be the one to decide who will be your replacement.

***

Daniel: I need you to go to the conference room for a moment. It is important.

The agents sat down in the chairs while Daniel waited for them in front of the table.

Bailey: What do you want to tell us?

Daniel: After Bailey's resignation, the job of Director of External Operations at MCI was vacant. After much thought, I have come to a conclusion and I know who will be the agent to replace Reed in the position.

Bradley: And what have you thought?

ST. GEORGE, UTAH

A vintage light blue convertible was driving along a treeless road in the middle of the desert. They were listening to loud jazz music. The driver was a black-skinned man with glasses and the co-driver was a black-skinned woman with curly hair.

After driving for a while, the man turned right at one of the exits on the road and pulled into a gas station.

Both occupants got out of the vehicle and entered the gas station.

-Good morning. -Said the man to the attendant. Will you open pump 6, please?

-Right away. -Said the girl at the counter. She had red hair and was not more than 20 years old. It's already open, sir.

The co-pilot walked up to the cashier.

-And she charged us for this pack of gum, too.

-That would be a dollar and fifty cents. Will you pay cash or credit card?

-I'd rather pay for free. -The woman pulled out a gun, pointed it at the girl and shot her several times.

They both started killing all the young girls inside and outside the gas station while laughing.

The agents were sitting in the chairs in the meeting room listening to Daniel.

Daniel: After Bailey's resignation, the job of Director of External Operations at MCI was left vacant. That's why, after much thought, I've come to a conclusion and I know who will be the agent to replace Reed in the position.

Bradley: And what are you supposed to have thought of?

Daniel: Congratulations to Webb. He will be the new Director of Foreign Operations.
