Overview

Synopsis

With enemies like these, who needs friends?

One a snowy night, somewhere in Switzerland, former spy Peter is completing one last job before he officially retires. On the roof the of the train, he finds himself pursued by Sylvestro, his long-serving nemesis who he has confronted many times before. However, this time, Sylvestro is pulling the strings. He has invented this job and lured Peter to the train, as he refuses to accept Peter's decision to retire. His retirement means that Sylvestro's missions in the future will be too easy and boring without anyone as good as Peter. However, Peter calls Sylvestro's bluff and seizes the opportunity to defeat his enemy one final time.

This is a ten minute play.
