   “Smile.”
   The man continues to stare blankly.
   “Is it possible to tell us why ZM73 resigned?”

   “You did read his letter of resignation?”

   “How was his mood at the time, was he pleased to hand in his letter of resignation, happy, angry, what was his mood?”
    The man simply stares ahead.
    “You couldn’t tell, his mood was nondescript perhaps?”
    The man continues to toy with his pen.
    “Don’t give much away to you?”
    The man’s lips remained closed.
    “Well thank you for being so helpful! No don’t get up, we can show ourselves out. I can see we’ve disturbed you too much already.”
    The man picks up the receiver of the pink telephone and makes a call to………
