The gravely voice continued. "Tomorrow at 6:30 pm, go to the bus stop on the corner of 8th and Tropicana. There you will be contacted and given instructions on what to do next. Your contact will be dressed like a mime. When he approaches, say 'Hello, this is Fred.'"
Fred liked that last part since now he had a little practice, but that first part he just didn't like. He was supposed to be home in bed by 6:30. But he was told not to say anything so he remained quiet.

Don't like any of the choices? Got a better idea? Go for it!
