"Thats the weather today. Back to you, Jack"

"Thank you Bobby."

Robert "Bobby" Drake walked back to his office, loosening his tie as he tossed a wadded up paper into the can.

A passing crewman waved calling out."Good Job, Ice-man!", as he entered his office and shut the door. He sighed, bored with everything.

There was a knock at his door, and four strangers walked in. Robert stood up fast, alarmed.

"How did you get in here?"

"Money erases all doors."

Robert looked at them warrily and the older man smiled, "Don't be worried, Mr. Drake. I have a propostition for you."

Robert leaned forward and smiled.
