"Don't worry, discretion comes with the job. No one will hear a word about this. Here are my conditions... which include a considerable markdown for convenience and the Sergeant's good behavior. Whatever we agree on, I'm going to take in good faith... because if this goes south, things will get messy, here and in relations between our countries, I promise you. Besides... you're getting a good deal here. You'll want to keep this one.
One, I want a FIM-92 Stinger. I know you're not supposed to deal in military hardware, but those things fall into bad hands all the time and we both know it. One should quietly fall into good hands for once." she starts, remembering Melissa's specific desire for one of those things.
"Two, I want Johnathan King, son of Elizabeth and Dale King, nephew of Eliza Robbins, cousin of Parker Robbins... which should be good enough to find the right John King... placed on the federal 'no fly' list, and noted as a person of interest. He was previously held in FBI custody before he made a deal and named names to get free... he has since violated the terms of his agreement and conducted acts of terrorism within America - which makes him federal and military business. He is wanted in Symkaria and will receive a trial if he is caught. But I don't want the bastard allowed to fly anywhere, or to cross any international borders. Current relations allow for exchange of wanted criminals between our nations.
Three, if this all goes down well and clean, I want Sgt. Talbot given the media and military credit for apprehending Ali Daryaei - the credit doesn't go higher up. He's been a good boy so far and played by the rules. If anyone gets decorated for this, it should be him and his squad for doing the grunt work.
Four, top military brass names can open doors. I want reservations for two at Zaytinaya in Washington D.C. tomorrow night, under my name. Good seats too - and dinner on the military's tab. We'll handle getting to Washington ourselves.
Five... I'm going to give you a phone number. After today, that number and that phone will never be usable again. You are going to send me a message at that number with the following information - what time our reservations at Zaytinaya are for, and the names and bounties of all people currently on the United States' most wanted list, as given to your private contractors - no names, no payment information left out. If Blackwater got the info, I get it too.
Six, and final, I trust you will agree that these terms are a hell of a lot less expensive than you were probably expecting, no matter how much of a bill we run up at Zaytinaya... as soon as I get your message and my SAM missile launcher, I will release the prisoner into Sgt. Talbot's sole custody, at which point neither he, nor you, ever saw or spoke with us, and we will leave the area unmolested.
Do we have a deal?"
