Oh you are not going to believe this one . . .
<End Intro Voice>
Well here we are in Baltimore.
With no idea what we're looking for.
What do you mean?
Well Bill Gates went to ground pretty damn quickly.
It's not like anyone was paying too much attention so we hardly know where to start beyond Baltimore.
Yeah, but -
This could very easily take days.
No it won't.
Or weeks.
Months.
How about a coffee break first.
What are you guys talking about, we have some very definite clues.
No we don't.
Long search ahead of us.
Might as well take it easy.
People! I think we should start with that building over there.
What building?
You know full well which one I mean.
You mean the large, dark, ominous building?
The one covered in big, black spikes.
The one that looks like some sort of obscene amalgamation of technology and biology.
The one with some sort of hideously mutated life form patrolling the grounds, the walls, the roof and hovering dangerously around the fifth floor.
The place that charges five dollars per person to use the express elevator.
The one with a horrific fresco that looks a lot like a semi naked reclining Bill Gates in the foyer.
Reaching out with one finger towards God.
And God looking like this is the single greatest thing to happen to him ever.
And has a Starbucks as the atrium centrepiece.
We don't know what building you're talking about.
What is with you people?!
Did you miss the words horrific and ominous?
Yeah, we don't want to have to go in there.
We have to, it's the single most likely place Bill Gates is going to be.
Okay, how about this, was your mission to find Bill Gates or whatever was left of him or was it to meet Bill Gates or whatever was left of him. Because this looks like a pretty good qualification for finding him.
We don't know for sure.
Horrific fresco.
It's not conclusive proof of Gates.
Who the hell else would have that in there?
Someone who really does not like their employees.
Don't help.
What is the problem, we've got to do this.
You've got to do this.
Well that's not entirely true. If Grey finally gets crushed by Gates I'd hate to not be there to take pictures.
Thanks a bunch.
And I wouldn't feel right if Grey went in there and found it wasn't Bill Gates and the moment passed without someone to say I told you so.
The support is under whelming.
And I've got to come along because for better or worse this is a quest. I'm involved, I've got to see it through.
Wow, that's the nearest I've heard to a vote of support so far.
And it's coming from the guy who's going to beat the snot out of you later.
This is true.
Wonderful. Beige?
Yes.
Well why are you coming?
I do not believe that my presence is necessary.
Something might need to be blown up.
I'm in.
Can I back out again?
No.
<Intro Voice>
And so finally we're going to get results. Oh God I hope we finally get results. Anything, even it Gates has just had his brain transplanted into the body of a goldfish!
Great. Now I hope I haven't spoilt the ending.
