Dangerous assignment. Transcribe, starring Brian Don LaViere, Steve Mitchell. Yeah, danger is my assignment. I get sent to a lot of places I can't even pronounce. They all spell the same thing though of trouble. But when I walk into the commission as often as I don't realize that this assignment is going to show that sometimes the only way you can win is to let the whole deal go up and smoke.

Morning, Commissioner. You sent for me, Steve. Do you know anything about Highlight? Handball game Latin style, isn't it? Fast and furious and pretty rugged. rugged, especially if you get conked with a ball. It'll kill you.

Well, here's hoping you don't get conked, because you're going to attend the high-ly games at one of the arenas in Havana tonight. And you're going to bet on the team of Danny Allen Scoble. Now, there you go.

Haven't I had any idea? We're only interested in the man who was going to take her bet. Well, what's this all about, Commissioner? Well, sometime now, we've been trying to crack down on a smuggling ring operating out of Havana, running a regular shuttle between Florida and Cuba. What are they running? You name it,

everything in the book, including illegal entry now and then. We finally got a lead on the organization Steve, from someone working on the inside. That the boy I'm the contact, the one who's going to take my bet.

Right, you'll be up to Fontant Palace, window three, you place your bet, and when you open your wallet, let him have a glance at your credentials. He'll take it from there. Get whatever information you can from him. Track down that organization and smash it. Well that's it Steve. You've got your assignment. Good luck.

…
