Hey, I hear we traded 4 for 12 with the Russians. Hm..

Never of a spy going back.

Just goes to show, they can't be all bad!

Mother means so much in any language.

All that spy training
tossed aside for maternal
sensibilities.

One wonders what really will happen to him now that he has switched...

Ah, but your 4 were worth far more than their 10. Knowledge is what it's all about. You get intelligence officers and a scientist
against 10 who had never done anything - and probably never would have.

But he missed his mum, for heaven's sake!

They're not - it's just the other side's wots bad, innit?

Probably untranslatable, though. (Still can 't leave comments on yours - apparently it's the shockwave.

Kass
Did the paternal
sensibilities lead them
to accept him back?

Tabor
Exactly!

Cait
Couldn't you begin to use them more on the world stage?
