The Adventures of Doctor Abby Normal, The Basement Diaries

The Courtship of Abby's Mother, Part 7

"Dmitri Smerdyakov, long time no see."

"I don't want to talk to you."

"No one does." Nick Fury was popular for all the wrong reasons. "What brings you here?"

"You finally arrested me."

"And?"

"You tricked me."

"You knew that your mother was dead."

"Yes."

"Did you learn anything interesting about Russian friend?"

"She has five coffee makers."

"Five coffee makers?"

"She also has opinions about pillows."

"Interesting, did you get any evidence that she's working for him?"

"They're closer than she led on."

"Has she accessed any relevant systems or databases?"

"Not that I can tell, but she was given access to some pertinent intelligence data." She hadn't taken it though, or any. That might be someone else's job.

"What if she's not working for them, or him?"

"She hasn't had a chance to bust him out yet."

"Why would she bust him out when they could have meetings every day?" That was true, she would have access to him here.

"We have Russian translators."

"She had to know seven at her old job, stinky probably knows more."

"Nine, she said that he knows nine."

"When was this?"

"When she was drunk."

"Were you interrogating her?"

"No, she kept going on about 'Back in the Soviet Union-'"

"What else did she say?"

"She confessed to several crimes."

"Ones that we know of?"

"She did kill someone."

"Who?"

"She never got that far, she puked up a little on the backseat."

"We need to keep her under surveillance."

"Of course, you kept me under surveillance-"

"You were accessing databases and systems that you weren't supposed to."

"I was looking for my dead family and I fixed all those databases and systems." He had fixed them so well that no one else had been able to access them. "They're actually secure now."

"Sorry, about your, you know-"

"Thank you, you tried very hard."

"We think that we found evidence implicating-"

"They are all together now, it does not matter." Bela needed coffee, even an American one would do.

"Gypsy..."

"Orphan."

"I can hear tiny..." Katya glared at him.

"Not very nice, is it?" Did Gary bring back Bela's pancakes? "I.O.U, Gary Jr.." He had ripped off part of the kid's menu.

"He punch me in vagina."

"He what?"

"Actually, Captain America, never mind, vat ve do now?"
