Fakeout


Good morning, Mr. Briggs.  Anastas Poltroni, head of the International Narcotics Syndicate , now resides as Ted Carson in a country with which we have no extradition treaty.  Your mission, should you decide to accept it , would be to get Poltroni out of that country so that he may be legally arrested and brought back to the United States to face trial.  Unfortunately, kidnapping has been ruled out as too embarrasing politically.  As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.  Please dispose of this recording by the nearest means.  Good luck, Dan.
