A very affecting interlude. Thanks for posting this.

When I first started the series, someone said something about looking forward to when "the blonde gets a clue" and I winced. Sandy was introduced as an intentionally tragic character, and if it weren't for that comment I might not have used her again. But because that was said... Well, this has been waiting ever since. Even if "the blonde gets a clue", Sandy's hopes were supposed to be just a little too idealized to match the reality of a spy's life.

Like a more innocent version of Napoleon's shotgun weddings, really.
