In an attempt to "be a better boyfriend", Kenzo makes good on his promise to email Kaida more often. In the email directly preceding this story, he teasingly refers to Kaida's mention of her plot for world domination. Kaida jokingly reponds...
Kaida: Hey Kenzo:
Pardon me for multi-tasking; I’m super busy but I still wanted to get a message sent right away.
Asher finally decided to let me train on the lights and sound so I have to kind of match my schedule up to Pete’s for the next few weeks. You remember Pete – the Sound Guy – the one that wanted to rig a way to hook up your violin to his multi-megawatt amplifier? Techies, sheeeesh. He’s got me wandering around the theater checking sound levels while he….
WHENEVER YOU’RE READY, PETE!
Sorry for shouting, Kenzo. PetetheSoundGuy thinks he’s sooooo funny. He keeps saying “Can ya hear me now?” I keep telling him that phrase is like so yesterday but he doesn’t care. Just between you and me…

(sigh) YES, I CAN HEAR YOU NOW. SHEESH, PETE.
…Tell ‘em I mean that with the utmost “respeck” for their capabilities and level of expertise….. Anyway we can work all this stuff out later. And Kenzo…..I miss you, lots. I really do. If you were here I’d give you just the biggest ki…….
NOT YOU, PETE, YOU KNOW I WASN’T TALKING TO YOU! ARE YOU FINALLY FINISHED?
Gotta go., Kenzo, but I’ll talk to you soon. - In the meantime: Think Short Power!
