Who are you?

Who am I? Yeh..

You don't know who I am?

Oh, are you...are you the caterer?

Bingo, that's me.

Bingo catering, Limited.

I, uh, just came by to see

what kind of event...I would be catering.

Uh, that is to say, what

uh-uh-uh, type of event, per se...

And uh..any allergies?

The party's tonight.

You probably should have asked these questions

like a week ago...

No, no.

There's actually not that much planning involved

in catering, it's a lot of improv.

So, uh, the event is tonight.

And Mr Horn will be there?

- Here.

Here? The event is here.

Tonight?

Okay, good...yes, yes...

I can make this work.

Um, and what time is it?

- 7:
30.

Great.

Okay, then...I, uh...

I'll go get some hotdogs and

chips and whatnot.

And, uh, I'll be back by 7:00.

- Hey, asslips.

Hey, fartface.

How's the detective business?

You shoot anybody yet?

Don't even laugh.

I think this might be more serious

than just some missing person.

Oh yeah?

What's going on?

Well, a guy is missing.

But I think he may have been taken by force.

You mean raped?

I...I don't mean...

well who knows?

But when I say taken, I mean abducted, ya idiot.

Like kidnapped.

Oh, I don't like this.

That's it, I'm pulling you off the case.

Time to call the cops, Leo.

It's not that simple.

I made a promise.

And when I make a promise to a

strange woman wearing a bathrobe

in a sleazy motel.

I keep it!

Did you sleep with her?

- Maybe I did, maybe I didn't.

Didn't.

What's the story with the missing

brother?

His name is Miles,

and he designs video games.

Video games?

I love video games.

I know you do,

That's why I wanted to talk to ya'.

Yeah, I just bough the new Playbox.

Oh, I thought you had an XStation.

No, I have both

Playbox and XStation.

Wow, I'm still using my old Nintari.

Anyway, this Miles guy designed

some hugely, popular games called

Curseworld. You ever...

Curseworld?

O-ho, yeah!

Heard of it?

So, I wait here then?

Check it!

Check it!

You own a copy of Curseworld?

That's why I bought Playbox, man.

This game is awesome!

It's got vampires and werewolves.

and the higher levels, it's got a

vampire-werewolf hybrid...

that can fly, but

it's still has wolf faces...

And they've got these claws that

rip flesh when they attack.

They're like...

shriek

Well, okay, real good...

thanks...for the nightmares.

Anyway, this game made a ton

of money for Glasskey.

What's Glasskey?

That's the company the missing

Miles guy works for.

This is a V5 game.

V5 Gaming company..

They've been around forever.

Never heard of Glasskey.

Hmmm. The plot thickens.

The bigdog, the head honcho,

the cheesy cahoona.

Are you referring to Mr Nelson?

Yes, Nelson.

Good old Full-Nelson.

Old Nelly Furtado.

Is he in?

What is this regarding?

It's uh..specialty advertising.

Caps and pens and fobs...

Various fobs.

Key, luggage...

What have you.

Fobs of that nature.

Mr Nelson doesn't need any fobs.

He might. He might be walkin' around

right now...

Big pocket full of loose keys rattlin'

around in his pants

Saying, "these things are drivin' me nuts."

And then you have to say,

"well, there was a fob guy in here earlier..."

"But I sent him away.

Am I fired?"

I think we both know the answer to that question.

Mr Nelson doesn't deal with Salespeople

directly.

Okay, well who does?

I do.

And we're good.

Fob-wise.

Barbara, could you call Bill

and make lunch for next Wednesday?

Yes, sir.

Was that him?

Is that Nelson?

Bye-bye now.

Nelson!

I'm guessing that's Nelson.

How you doin' today?

Do I know you?

He's just a salesman, sir.

And he was just leaving.

Just a salesman, that's real nice.

How would you like it if I said you

were just a secra-ception-nister...what it...

What are you?

Get rid of him, Barbara.

And then come to my office.

You heard him.

It's time to go.

- Okay, alright...

I just want to say two words...

Miles Severeign.

Who are you?

Come here a moment.

It's okay, Barbara.

At ease, Barbara.

I'm just gonna go shoot the shimmy

with old Nelson Mandella here for a bit.

Hold our calls.

Now, who did you say you were?

Well, let's say...

hypothetically

for the sake of argument,

that I may or may not be

a private detective

Who was, or was not,

hired to, uh, investigate

the disappearance

of Miles Severeign.

Disappearance?

Miles is missing?

You wouldn't know anything about that, would you?

- Of course not.

This is a terrible shock to me.

I cared a great deal for miles.

Um...

He will be missed.

You talk like he's dead.

Well. yes, because he quit working here

some time ago

and I haven't seen him since.

Now if you'll excuse me

I'm a busy man.

Yeah, so am I.

Swamped, actually.

You're lucky I could even fit you in today.

Next time call ahead.

That was crap.

Oh, sorry

Didn't mean to scare you, I just...

Felt that I had to say

that was a total load of crap.

What was?

I overheard the whole thing with Nelson

about him caring a great deal

for Miles,and saying he'll be missed

Old man Nelson hated Miles's guts

Interesting. Why?

Well, he created our biggest selling game

Curse World.

Yeah, and Miles wanted a bigger

piece of the pie.

I mean the game was huge,

it sold millions.

200 million.

That's, uh...word on the street.

That's right

So Nelson gave Miles a bonus,

but that's it.

Miles told him to shove it

and he left to start his own company.

- Glasskey.

- damn straight, Glasskey.

That company is going to take

a fat chunk out of the market.

Ah...it probably wouldn't be good

for this place.

And you work here?

Yeah, I'm Danny. I'm just a junior

programmer around here, but, uh,

I know what time it is,

if you know what I'm saying.

Word. Uh, alright well. thanks

for the schizzle my frizzle.

WELCOME:

GLASSKEY SHAREHOLDERS

Daddy.

Hey, babe.

Excuse me.

Daddy, where's Miles?

I don't know where the hell Miles is

and why are you so concerned?

Didn't I tell you I don't want you

seeing him anymore?

Did you?

I don't remember.

Reese, I told you to stay the hell away

from Miles

If I find out you've been seeing him

behind my back

I'm going to be very disappointed

in you.

As if you weren't already.

Oops, pardon me.

heh, hot dogs comin' through.

Boy, you people can really pack it away.

Would it, uh, kill you to have a sandwich

before you come to one of these shindigs?

Excuse me.

Hey, who's in charge of liquor around here?

I don't want my daughter

getting any more booze.

I'm sorry, mr Horn, we'll

see what we can do

Do?

Don't give her any more booze.

Okay, that's what you can do.

Yes, Mr Horn.

Boy, the, uh, the place really

looks great with all the balloons and...

Man, I fell like I'm at the prom.

- Yeah, well thank you.

- Oh, it's Mr Horn, right?

- Yeah, yeah...

Sorry, I don't recall...

Well, that banner's fantastic, too.

Where'd you get that done?

Bannerama?

Geez, they do good work.

Yeah, no, I didn't actually decorate

the place.

No, I guess you probably didn't.
