♪ ♪

Gentlemen, I'd like to introduce our youngest and brightest star.

He was very helpful during our recent operation in Prague.

Only dead.

- Excellent.

Huzzah!

- Bravo.

Barely double digits.

He will now be taking over our most critical assignment.

I am on the hunt for a turned American now working for Russia code-named Grey Fox.

In World w*r II, he served with the fabled Flying Hellfish, the only unit that served in the Pacific, European and Grauman's Chinese Theatres.

Now Grey Fox lives in a small American town containing a nuclear plant, stealing their secrets.

This is a map of all nuclear plants in America, and these are all the nuclear plants with bad security.

(BUZZER BUZZING)

(GASPS)

I will go to each city, and in no time at all, I will have flushed out Mr. Grey Fox.

Even if it takes me a fortnight.

Oy, what's a fortnight?

Nobody knows.

Goodbye, chaps.

I shall find this man with English speed and efficiency.

_ No, sir.

I haven't found him yet.

Yes, I know it's been years.

But I've called you because the dots have finally connected, and I'm off to prove it.

If I'm wrong, my entire life has been a waste.

Except, of course, for the reading.

Ooh.

And now to flush out the fox.

My father was an awful spy.

A blundering spy.

Sir, I've figured out how the Russians have stayed one step ahead of us: lucky guesses.

You fool.

They've planted a mole at the top of our secret service.

Not possible.

I've asked everyone if they were a mole, and they all said no.

I became a spy to redeem my father's name.

That's amazing, Moe.

So, did you restore your father's good name?

No, but I will when I apprehend my target.

How long you been at it?

years.

Sure.

My dad is not a spy.

So you say.

Ask yourself a few questions.

What did your father do for a living?

I don't know.

Yet he always had money.

More than I expect.

Does he hate this country?

Well, he doesn't like any of our political parties, he says "Grand Canyon" sarcastically, he thinks "The Star-Spangled Banner" is impossible to sing, he calls Uncle Sam "Uncle Scam," and he doesn't like people who are different, so I'd say he's as American as Apple Watches.
