Alright.
The scene is set, and Ms. Porpulac is clearly not among the great realists of our time. So why does the S.O.U.P. want her for this job?
…
Ah. She’s going in as a statue (a temporary change, I assume, or intended to be such), and they needed someone pretty who wouldn’t refuse the job, didn’t they?
If someone had a reversible process, that’d be of interest to human traffickers. “Just importing statues, that’s all.”
That the ‘statues’ never turn up in anyone’s fancy garden…
Maybe they will for a garden party. If you’re rich, don’t you have a lot of rooms and secret passages in your house?
Sounds to me like they need bait and a dragnet to catch him in a statue-tory wrap…
Didn’t the statue of limitations run out?
