Just then an advertising agent, who had seen the whole thing, bounded in
his floppy sandals toward Fred... "I like your style!" the man cheers him on with an annoying guffaw. "Dirty, but effective! Do you have an agent?" "Uh, no," Fred replies with just a tinge of annoyance in his voice. "I'm LORD Fred, you might have heard of me...Joe Shmoe. I'm assuming your surname is Shmoe, yes? Or maybe it was Shmuck. Wait - don't answer, cause I don't care. I'm here to register a complaint with the wretches in upper management. Your secretary here has proven herself to be most incompetent and I'm very offended she would send for some thug to rough me up! That ruffian is lucky I couldn't reach my sword...""No? Great!You're just what we've been looking for to market our new line of armor and other battle apparel we call X-Treme Knightgear! You've got the image of a real Knight..." "I am a Knight!"The man's face lights up, and he produces a business card from somewhere and hands it to Fred. "Oh? Even better! Any experience in modeling? No? No problem!" Fred reaches for the hilt of sword, but strays his hands from slaying the man with such hastiness. This guy just works for the Dragon, he isn't the Dragon itself. Fred's still indignant, however. "I would never dream of becoming a minion of the Dragon" he says snootily. "Now take me to the President of Sales and Marketing or I will smite you.""I do not wish to be smote," comes the agent's reply. "Then take me to your leader," comes Fred's."Only if you assure me I will not be smitten." "I assure you there will be no smiting, if you take me to your leader.""Come with me," the agent sighs, motioning for Fred to follow. "Mr. Big, you have a visitor." comes the female voice over the intercom. "I didn't schedule any visitors!" the executive protests, taking another puff on his cigar as he reads over the latest sales projections and strategies. "Er, sorry, Sir. But he says I will be smote if I don't let him in."
