CAFE AND DINER RECEIPT
DATE: 5/2*/2016
BY A.I.
MR. PEREZ CASE NO. 5
Hello, my wonderfuls! Thanks for letting me join this sick club. It’s exciting stuff! Now I’m sure you all already know me pretty well… but in case you forgot me (hard to believe), my code name is A.I. I had physics with M.J., Intro to Film with S.W., and I sat behind J.L. in Chemistry because she failed it twice. I am also the one who spray-painted makeup onto the statue in the quad and changed the name of the school paper to the Shlanghorney Times. I know, you must be thinking, gee A.I., those crimes against Langhorne High were never solved! EXACTLY! I AM A MASTER DECEIVER AND CRIMINAL MASTERMIND. And thus, I am perfect for this secret society shiz.
I see you’ve already got the leader type, J.L., the nerd tech guy M.J., and the redshirt creature capturer S.W. but what happens when you end up with a loose Chupacabra on the news? How do you fix that? ME! The coverup artist! I think it’s an important role within your organization. (We do get paid for this, right? I mean, this Cafe is enormous, so I am assuming there is money involved, yes?) I don’t know why I’m trying to sell you on myself when I have already been hired. I mean, I suppose you wouldn’t want a loose cannon like me on the side of the evil mass media conglomerate, right?
Oh. Yeah. I guess I’m supposed to put down what we did about Mr. Perez in this thing, right? Which, by the by, as your new head of secrecy, you guys realize you’re just making a HUGE paper trail? I know these things are “encrypted,” but, like, seriously, you guys just write down whatever in these things, huh? If these CaDComs get into the wrong hands, I don’t know how I would cover all this up. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Mr. Perez. It’s fixed. It’s solved. Me and S.W. when to the park with a stocking filled with tissue paper on a fishing string and filmed it for a “student project.” We did this loud enough to ensure all the Chupacabra hunters were able to put 2 and 2 together. I checked Reddit, and already the disinfo has spread, and the previous footage of Mr. Perez has been “debunked.” You’re welcome.
