At today's meeting
Phyllis had the unique distinction of being the only person
To ever get kicked out of the Puddingstone Reservoir Dan Brown Book Club
Most of the other members (actually all of the other members)
Were brown trout who had lost their data integrity
The phone rang, interrupting her plan to announce
That there would be no more book club meetings at her workplace
And that her feelings were hurt by their unanimous vote against her
Phyllis picked up the phone and used her "answer word"
To acknowledge both receiving and accepting the call
Admiral Platts was just offshore in a rowboat when he made the call
The medals and accommodations on his M1941 Parsons jacket
Reflecting off the lake surface with the last bit of sunlight left in this day
The utility shack sat about 90 meters away from his position
He knew that contact had been made when he heard the "answer word"
Four pairs of hands (eight hands total) rested lightly on the rowboat's bottom
The admiral's phone conversation unheard by the four fully-suited hand owners
Helen's team had been ordered to stand down and provide surveillance data only
But Helen thought of orders as mere suggestions and often disregarded them
Which was the reason she had an unparalleled record of success with silencing traitors
