MOP12 (Oct 27, 1995)
Summary of Receipt
The Owner ends the official investigation into 35’s powers, explaining that Pleasant was planning to interfere with the Ouroboros, which would be really bad. He also expects Mr. Three (Hermes Trismegistus) to show up soon, and asks the other employees to start a new chain of receipts should that happen.

RECEIPT #012

THE OWNER
TAB PAID FOR MOP CARE OF #35, #71, AND THE OWNER
Well, that was enlightening. I would suggest everyone read #35’s receipt from yesterday, as I’ll be wrapping things up in the Diner. The need-to-know of it is that Mrs. Pleasant was shooting to come in at 4 o’clock last month. I think the implications of that are clear enough. It would be a disaster if Mrs. Pleasant arrived any later than 3. Speaking of 3, I would wager we’ll be receiving a visit from Mr. Three in person sooner rather than later.
While #35 has been dreaming of Mr. Three, I doubt he’ll stay a dream for long. Now I haven’t personally had the pleasure of meeting with Mr. Three before, and I suspect the same can be said for the rest of you. I wouldn’t be too worried about him; he’s been known to be a bit of a snake, but I assume he can be trusted all the same. Of course, there are concerns that his bite is worse than his bark, but I would generally chalk that up to a special circumstance.
As for this receipt chain, I believe we’ve reached its natural conclusion. Any new developments regarding Mrs. Pleasant, Mr. Three, the fourth hour of the day, or #35 and her strange dreams would be better served in a new receipt. I am excited about #35’s progress, and I have some theories as to where it might be headed. Though, and this goes for everyone involved, please do be mindful of rule number ten. A strange one for sure, but the hour and customers at hand require its strict adherence. I feel I must also commend #44 and #1313. All three of our latest hires have more than proven themselves worthy of our Cafe and Diner family, and I’m sure you’d all agree.
