Time: 07:22. Location: Mercury Justice law firm.
13 days until the honey festival.
Mandy kisses James on the lips goodbye and enters the law firm. The minivan heads to the Shangri-La Spa to pick up Jason.
When Mandy walks through the golden door, Mercury is already waiting with tropical music playing in the background, dressed in a flowered shirt and Bermuda shorts, carrying a bottle of coconut liquor in one hand, and tickets to Hawaii in the other. Before Mandy can utter a word, Mercury is already hugging and patting her back in congratulations. As the lawyer moves away, he maintains a forced smile.
"Mandy, my dear, you did a spectacular job and now you need a break! Take a pair of tickets to Honolulu. The flight leaves in four hours. I present to you the keys to the gates of heaven" says the lawyer and extends her one of the plane tickets.
Mandy's smile shrinks into a suspicious grimace.
