Our Belgian client has concerns.
He's always concerned.
Yeah, he's congenitally paranoid.

I apologize for the disarray.
With the new ambassador coming in,
we're all shifting offices.
If it isn't rude, what happened to the old ambassador?
He passed away.
Have you seen this boy?
Where did you get this?
It's her son. He's missing,
and a friend of ours said he thought he
may have seen him here.
How old is your son?
He's seven.
This is going to sound strange.
We're good with strange.
I used to have a drawing of this same boy.
But it was 30 years old. The ambassador got it for me.
I found out recently it was on the back of a record album.
Can I see the drawing?
I don't have it.
We had it in a reception after the ambassador's funeral.
One of his business partners stole it off my wall.
A boring, paranoid man,
