Perry the Platypus, aka Agent P, slid down the tube that lead to his secret layer. He had just gotten an alert from Major Monogram that something was amiss. He hoped it didn't involve Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Sure, the chances of the situation not involving Dr. Doofenshmirtz was slim to none, but he could still be hopeful.

When Agent P landed in his chair, he was immediately greeted by Major Monogram on the big screen.

"Good morning, Agent P," said Monogram. "You're looking well today. Did you get a new haircut? Or furcut? Or...what do you call that weird tealish blue stuff that covers most of your body?"

Agent P heard a sloping sound behind him. He looked and saw that Carl was there, cleaning the floor with a mop.

"Don't mind me," Carl said in his nasally voice. "I'm just taking over janitorial duties."

Agent P turned back toward Major Monogram.

"Anyway," said Monogram, "we have learned two things today. One, electric fences only work when you put a collar on the dog first." Major Monogram chuckled with embarrassment and then cleared his throat. "Second, one of our agents has gone missing. I'll put his picture up on screen for you."

A picture flashed up on the screen. It showed a pink pig wearing the fedora hat that was uniform for all of OWCA's agents to wear.

"Is..is that a pig, sir?" Carl asked.

"Oh yes," said Major Monogram. "He is our newest recruit. We have taken to calling him Agent Pi. You know, seeing how Agent P was already taken."

Perry raised an eyebrow.

"Anyway," Major Monogram continued, "it is possible that he has just failed to show up to work today. However, I think that we all know that the far more likely option is that he was somehow kidnapped by Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Agent P, your mission is to go to Doofenshmirtz's layer and try to locate Agent Pi."

Perry half heartedly saluted the Major. Then he turned around and headed for the door. Before he could get very far, he slipped and fell on his back.

"CARL!" stormed Major Monogram. "You should put up a wet floor sign so that people can be more aware."

"But there is no one else here, sir," said Carl. "This is a secret lair!"

Perry only made a guttural chattering noise in reply. He got back up and headed for the door again. Carl then turned back to the major on the screen.

"Agent Pi?" he asked.

"Oh yes," said Major Monogram. "I especially like that because it reminds me of the mathematical term pi. 3.14159265359…"

The major continued to recite the digits of pi. Carl, rolling his eyes, went right back to mopping the floor.

…

Two hours had passed and the major was still reciting the digits of pi. Carl was becoming fed up with it.

"Sir, do you mind stopping?" he asked. "You've been going at this for hours now."

"But I'm on a roll!" said Major Monogram. "I haven't made a mistake once!"

"Oh, I beg to differ sir," said Carl. "I think you made a huge mistake."

"What's that?" asked Major Monogram.

Carl turned toward the screen and snorted.

"You talked," he said.

Major Monogram glared at his intern.

"You know, I really ought to fire you one of these days."
