Argantry received an urgent telegraph this morning from one of her secret contacts in the Wild Fascist Dictatorship. (That is, it's not a secret that she has contacts, but their identities are secrets). There has been a coup! The military has turned on Ebenezer Popcorn and forced him out of office and into prison, along with his heinous righthand sadist, Dr Basil! Not clear yet which of the military factions is responsible for the coup; Argantry says that there are about five. She is not very optmistic that her exile is over, alas; only one of the parties that could be responsible would actually be favourable to her. But still, excitement!
