Losing her footing on the poorly maintained stairs leading to James Rockhead's office, Valerie Vavoom broke yet another heel
off of an expensive pair of shoes and dropped the pile of papers
she was bringing to Rockhead. Regaining her composure she
entered the waiting room to find Rockhead and his secretary
Agnes Beasley.

Valerie looked refreshed. She had left the seedy motel and gone
home for a luxurious bath. Rockhead and Agnes had both noticed
the waft of lavender fragrance before Valerie even entered the room.

"I waited for you at that dump of a motel and you didn't show
up" she yelled at Rockhead. "I apologize Mrs. Vavoom, I tried
to call you but the switchboard operator told me that you were
not in your room" replied Rockhead. "I am very, very sorry".

"I don't understand why you want me to hide out in this run down,
shabby, poor excuse for a motel" she said. "You see Mrs. Vavoom, I
just need some time to investigate all of the strange happenings of the
last few days. There is now a police investigation and I don't want you
talking to them until I get more information from you" replied Rockhead,
desperately trying to calm the waters and gain Valerie Vavoom's trust.

"I might be able to shed some light on the situation" said Valerie. "I've
brought these papers for you to look at. It's a business proposal that
I have been working on. I think it will be clear to you that there are
a number of people who would not want this business to get off the ground".

Valerie handed the papers to Rockhead. Agnes noticed a pencil drawn
sketch of either a logo or a letter head - she wasn't certain what it was
but did notice a sketch of the strangest looking dog she had ever seen.
The animal had some of the poofy characteristics of that little creep
Pom Pom that she had searched the entire city for, but there was also
something that reminded her of her cousin's Chocolate Lab that she saw
every Christmas. 'What a strange looking creature', thought Agnes.

Jim Rockhead took the papers from Vavoom, briefly glancing at them and
then turned to his secretary with a total look of disbelief on his face ......

Agnes made a mental note to pick up some Tylenol for the office First
Aid Kit.
