Lowrance, “With me are Gary Hart and the Great Kabuki. Mr. Hart, this rivalry between you and Skandor Akbar went up a notch last week. Kabuki, who everyone thought was still in Japan, showed up and spit RED, not green mist, into the General’s eyes.We have not heard from Akbar, we don’t know how is is. What was the RED mist?”
Hart, “Marc Lowrance, nobody, and I mean nobody, gets the better of the Playboy. I sent Kabuki to Japan, I sent him to the foot of Mr. Fuji. There the priests and elders know the secrets of the RED mist. The green mist comes from Boogie Street in Singapore, and it’s terrible, but the RED, the RED comes from Mt. Fuji, and it’s the evil one! It blinds, like the green, but it paralyzes too!”
Lowrance, “Will we see Akbar again? What will happen to him?”

Lowrance, “Ominous words from Mr. Hart.”
