One dark and stormy night in New York, circa 1963, two Russian spies were scheduled to have a rendezvous. Their names were Crutch and Shaman. Shaman was the rookie spy and the goal of their meeting was to give Shaman a little extra training.
Hello, I've been expecting you Shaman.
I too have been looking forward to our rendezvous.
Great! Lets get to it. Meet me at the balcony on the office building on State Street.
Sounds like a plan.
When they arrived Clutch went on with the lesson.
I have chose this location for your first test to test the amount of stress you can handle. In order to be a successful spy you must need to be able to handle stress in difficult situations.
Can we do it in a place that's not so high up? I'm afraid of heights, and the dark for that matter.
This is going to be more difficult than I perceived. Maybe your skill set lies somewhere else.
I can't handle all the stress of this situation!
I have brought you here because a spy also needs to be physically fit to successfully complete his objective.
Ummmmmmm... I think my legs are getting tired from standing up because my hamstrings are so weak. Can I sit down?
Hmmmm... Maybe you are skilled in a different field.
Yaaaaayyy... I get to sit down!
Sounds easy enough.
The next thing a spy needs to be able to do is operate spy equipment. I have rented an apartment room so we could test your skill on a transmitting program that I have implemented on this average monitor.
We will see, these programs are difficult to run.
Hey! What are you doing? You just set the self destruct button!
OOPS!
I am an American double agent! Do you not remember the most important thing that a spy has to be good at? Deceiving their enemy!
