"My instructions were clear, weren't they?""Sorry to bother you, Mr Chase. We have a problem," Suzanne, one of my employees, said from the other end. "Speak!"

However, the Doctor had noticed an anomaly with the shape of my protruded stomach—higher than expected —and had suggested some quick tests.
