do you mind if we share this table? .  the others, they are occupied.
my name is reginald san pedro sula. but please do call me reggie. this is my friend, who we call drop shadow. he is always with me.
you are from new orleans, senor farragut?
do you know honduras, johnny?
yes, thats so. but there is not much to destroy.
oh, many things.
but i am also with the government.
in many capacities.
he is my sponsor. the general is the head of the secret police of honduras.
that is my permiso.
only if necessary, of course, and only in my own country.
united states marine issue, before they made the unfortunate switch to the less dependable nine millimeters. i have it here, in my briefcase.
certainly not. we are here only briefly, in fact, until this evening, when we fly to austin, texas to visit a friend of mine who is an agent for the cia.
we are in the same businesses and also we are fishermen.
the same to you. if you are in honduras, come to the bay islands and visit us. the hondurans are great friends of the american people. but i have a joke for you before i go. if a liberal, a socialist, and a communist all jumped off the roof of the empire state building at the same time, which one of them would hit the ground first?
hola! senor farragut! we meet again.
would you like to enjoy a martini with us?
i think they are too serious, these american fishermen. in honduras, we are not so concerned with the method.
teddy roosevelt, one of the local shrimp boat captains is in jail now. these people are friends of mine, so i must return and find out what happened.
it has its moments of uncertainty.
i can tell you are an intelligent man, johnnie. one difference between your country and mine is that in the islands, it does not pay to reveal ones intelligence.  others may use what they perceive against us.
hasta siempre.
do you know how it came about that copper wire was invented in scotland?
the real joke is we never went fishing, but were still fishing.
hey, johnnie.  reggie - you remember reggie, dont ya? look what i caught. im gettin hot too, mama.
i cant stop her, johnnie.  she gets me too hot doin this.  im gonna be right here, but im gonna stand right behind ya with this big ol gun here.
hell, its even worse than i remember.  wait a minute.
i forgot to show you this. the gentlemen that gave this to me said youd recognize it. said he wanted itd be bout the last thing you ever saw in this life.
