NO WORRY. TAKING YOU ALIVE WAS NEVER PART OF PLAN.

I'm down with this.

MAYBE YOU THINK IS GOOD IDEA NOW, BUT WAIT UNTIL FIRST FEW COMPANYWIDE MEMORANDUMS GO OUT.

IN FACT, PROBABLY BEST TO GET JANITOR TO STOCK UP BROOM CLOSET WITH BOXES OF DEPENDS AHEAD OF TIME.

What if we refuse? Speaking purely hypothetically, of course.

[Salty]

Will I keep my benefits?

I smell romance in the air . . . just think of all the profit when the PANGO! and Nigel! posters and bobble-heads go on sale.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

DRINKS, PANGO! YOU AND ME AND A BOTTLE OF BOURBON. MAY THE BEST MAN ESCAPE A DISORIENTING ROUND OF SODOMY.

I think our new PANGO! style corporate structure included a slight change to the Human Resources Department.

I mean, it's still called Human Resources, but the whole thing seems a bit more... moist. And literal.
