Also just outside the café-bistro was a '65 blue Ford Mustang coupe, and in it were the two FBI men, that had trailed Joe and his friend Jess straight over from the Playboy Club. They had much earlier traced that telephone call by 'Babs' (AKA Sally), from the Club to Joe's home phone – which, along with Jess's home phone had been secretly wire tapped, soon after the two 'girls' had disappeared a while ago. A risky but necessary expense by the FBI G-men that had luckily proved to have been well spent…
Further down the street outside the small café, and unknown to the two FBI men, was a plain and unmarked white delivery van… inside of which were two of the practically unknown, very mysterious and eerily strange Men in Black. Even stranger was the fact that one of the 'men'… was actually a woman!

Jess and Joe each ordered a cheeseburger and fries, and two Cokes. Though she did not look like any girl he had ever met before, Joe had the odd sensation that the waitress with bright red hair was familiar somehow. Meanwhile, Jess had briefly glimpsed the lovely blonde chef working back in the kitchen, and he likewise had a shiver up his spine – a feeling of déjà vu – that he had seen her before. But then it hit him that she did seem to slightly resemble that actress from that TV show… about an astronaut that had found a lovely lady genie in an ancient bottle on a lonely beach. He could not recall the actress' name at the moment, but no matter… A quite beautiful woman, no less! He then flashed the chef a brief smile, just as she looked in his general direction. She soon returned it…
A minute or so later, as Joe and Jess were busy munching on their burgers, the two FBI men entered the café-bistro and took a seat at a small table nearby. Near enough to eavesdrop on the two men they trailed from the Playboy Club, but far enough to stay unnoticed. Dressed as tourists, they seemed to have been successful at blending in with the usual type of customers here in the now popular eatery.
Suddenly, the man and woman in black entered through the swinging café front door. Both Eva and Babs (Lilly and Sally) had a quick twinge of fear – which they felt almost like a quick jab to the solar plexus, much as one prize-fight boxer would deliver to his ring opponent. There was real danger here!
Time suddenly slowed… and stopped… For all, but Eva and Babs – and the man and woman all in black!
