"Not the best time to talk," the President said when he'd stepped into a corner he knew was secure and responded to Earl's unplanned call.

"Just listen, and we can talk later," Earl said. "Unless you were drunk and accidentally triggered a call to me last night, someone was playing with your phone and somehow triggered the special App. I don't know who as they never spoke, but we need to discuss what this means."

"Cindy!" Mark said recalling where his phone had been and when it had been available out of his sight. He had been so frustrated after their failed attempts the night before he'd neglected to take it with him into the bathroom while he showered.

"I'll call," he said, and terminated the current phone call. Visibly upset, he walked over to the Secret Service team on duty and explained he wanted to return to his quarters for a few minutes to get some of his stomach medicine before the next meeting. Once alone inside his quarters, he quickly re-established the connection to his Friend.

"My fault," he said apologetically. "I left the phone out when I took a shower last night."

"You still haven't put a password on the damn thing, have you?" Earl chastised, knowing his friend's habits.

"I want to be able to respond quickly before anyone notices if your call, and you know how screwed up I get with passwords."

"Well, this potentially screws things up because you have an unprotected phone," Earl swore. "What if this bimbo talks to someone? Is she the type that might?"

"Yeah maybe. Probably not around here, but then she is a very inquisitive woman, and come to think of it she might think about asking one of the agents she knows what kind of channel that might be."

"They would know right off what it is and that you aren't supposed to have something like that on your phone. We need to do something about her. This could undo everything we worked so hard for. The election is right around the corner, but the wrong look into things could blow it all up."

"You mean . . ."

"That's exactly what I mean," Earl replied.

"Who?"

"I can get our foreigner to handle it," Earl said. "He's best for this kind of thing."

Damn it, Mark thought. He was tiring of the woman, but he didn't want this. Then he decided there was too much at stake. Earl was right.

"Okay," Mark agreed. "Get it going. Probably should be as soon as possible. Who knows when she might say something."

"Keep an eye on her, but don't let her know you are aware of what happened. That would bring it all to a head, and we don't want that to happen in the White House. We want to solve this quietly somewhere else."

"Got it," Mark said disappointed with himself that he'd created such a situation.
