'Oh…Code-X, heh, they have a code for me; that's pretty funny,'
For a moment, while I was laughing at the frantic mutterings coming from Fredrick's end of the line, I could hear shuffling and a door opening before a booming voice I recognized screamed at the Secretary.
"SUSAN, WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT ENTERING DURING MY MEETINGS!"
