Yeah it's a bummer, I was looking forward to that game. But duty calls, so I gave
the tickets to my ex-wife. Said you'd mention how excited he was to go. That was big of you.
What do you mean? Well you know, not everyone's on such good terms with their ex-wife's new husband.
No no, not that. I mean what do you mean, Sydney mentioned.
Last time we're on the phone, he said how pumped he was.
Last time
you were on the phone? When were you on the phone with my ex-wife's new husband?
Well, it wasn't just him. Shelly too. We were zooming and she popped in and -
Wouldn't worry, I told him I couldn't go if that's what you're thinking. No no,
that's not what I'm thinking. Okay good. What I'm thinking is you were Skyping with my ex-wife's
husband. Zooming. Zooming, right my bad. Why the hell were you Zooming? This time uh - This
time? There have been other times? I mean yeah you know every now and then when it's too hard
to meet up in person. Okay. Just you, Shelley and Sydney. That's lovely, it is really is.
Oh no by all means continue. Gentlemen, I've got good news.
Lady Death is alive. I didn't know, we thought she was dead sir. Is she okay? For the past
six months, while you two were in Colombia, I sent her on a mission to terminate Ivan Bubalo.
The cult leader? Oh no no, he's much more than a cult leader. They call him Bubalo the Conqueror
and his regime is quickly gaining the political and territorial foothold to cause serious unrest
in the region where he was once at war with the legitimate government of Malta. He and
his cronies have now managed to put an entirely new administration in place. One with which he
works hand in hand. His cult, or terror cell, call themselves the state of Aragon and unlike
Al Qaeda and Hezbollah their allegiance is not to God or Allah. It is to Bubalo.
This is good for us. I feel if we can cut off the head, we can kill the snake and the state
of Aragon will come to a swift end. The head will need to be not only Bubalo's,
but his top ranking officials. Five in total. Six months ago, after she infiltrated the base,
I lost contact. I haven't heard from her since, until now. She sent an SOS signal from a phone
that we traced back to Bubalo's palace. Gentlemen, your mission is to extract Lady D
and finish what she started. Find LD and cut off the head of the snake, copy. All
six snakes. The CIA can't officially be involved. That's where we come in. Okay, let's get to work.
[Music]
And now.
There you go buddy, sweet dreams.
[Music]
Hello Anna.
Anna Costa, the state of Aragon's minister of propaganda. She keeps the followers in check
with fear and intimidation so Bubalo can keep the appearance of benevolent savior. Sounds great,
consider her dead sir. Moving on. Don't we have some sort of no shirt, no shoes policy?
Oh Anna, you couldn't just make this easy for me. Come on buddy, why don't you go take a walk? B,
I'm in the upstairs bathroom. Seems like you'd have a perfect shot up here. Good to know, thanks.
I'm going to take these curtains down so you have this shot all day.
Oops,
someone needs to make a Target run. Hope they have green.
Got eyes on Mario 1. Mario Favo, Bubalo's head of security. Perhaps the most ruthless
of the entire bunch. He Delights in turning the faithful followers into
mindless war machines and uses routine death matches to separate the weak from the strong.
You hear that? I'm sending Mario 1 up to the terrace. Yeah, I heard that. Do you speak Maltese?
No, just that one phrase. Gotta be prepared, B. Do your research. Old-fashioned.
[Laughter]
Katrina Costa, sister of Anna Costa, and Bubalo's personal accountant. The person in charge of
Bubalo's astronomical wealth. She's forced much of the Maltese working poor into abject poverty
at which point allegiance to the state of Aragon is their only way out.
Excuse Me. Katrina Costa is on route to join Mario 1 on the Terrace. Should be a BOGO for you.
How you doing? Still waiting on the sister. She's a sitting duck but she's got a bodyguard
that ain't budging. Good luck with that. I'm gonna keep hunting for Lady Death.
Mario Muscat AKA Mario 2. On the count of there being another high-ranking Mario. Bubalo's
attorney. His back channel influence and bullish political sway had made Bubalo untouchable.
Done done.
Oh man, just like Elvis. It's a lot.
