Mom Says:
Now, of course, Agent Octavian had no idea what he was getting himself into when he volunteered for the Paris mission. When Agent Myshov heard about it, he called it Mission Moulin Rouge, and laughed a squeaky mouse laugh. M shushed him and gave Octavian a small French phrasebook.
Alek said, “When do we leave, old man?” and Pero barked as if he didn’t care, but he was watching everyone in a way that made Octavian realize that he meant to come too.
Octavian said, “In the mornin. Whatchu egspekt? Yu be mai schofer, lik befor. An Pero kin be mai, whatchucallit? Boddeegard. Then we see whut we see…”
Myshov, still a bit high, chuckled, “Oh, dah, l'agent Huit séduiront le chat riche et obtiennent les informations d'elle.”
Of all people, it was Pero who said, “Yu say that lik yu don’t thingk he kin get the infrmayshun frum her…Whatchu sayin about mai frend?”
Myshov peered up at the big black dog and shook his small head apologetically. “Rien! Rien! Meestr Oktavvyun ees gong to doo verree welll. Dah!”
Pero used one of Octavian’s words: “HUH! I shud thingk so!”
