Chicago-Zoe

Narrated 'claim' of a Windy-City rascal with an eye for Romanticism in capitalist-race politics and blood-diamond 'insider' echelons.

A V-Day adaptation of Killing Zoe (Roger Avary), which I think you'll like (and thanks for reading!),

I noticed her on the Windy-City metro and followed her to her place of currency-employment, the Federal Reserve Bank where blood-diamond Baron Goldfinger stored his 'celebrity' insurance diamonds (from Sierra Leone no doubt!) and wondered if she'd become his 'insider-girl' pawn and was moved to make/share 'damsel-artworks' (in her honor) online.

ZOE: What're you doing here in this bank with a mask/water-gun, Mr. Satan?
AMLAN SATAN (Me): I'm telling you I'll return with this same gear to rob.

ZOE: Rob...what?

AMLAN SATAN: Goldfinger's blood-diamonds; and you'll assist me, Zoe.

ZOE: You followed me to this bank from the subway the other morning, right?

AMLAN SATAN: You've hypnotized me; you're my Windy-City angel-of-luck.

ZOE: Right...you're insane, Mr. Satan.

AMLAN SATAN: Keep quite about this and Interpol-relations won't knock on your apartment window late-night, ok?

ZOE: You know where I live, Mr. Satan?

AMLAN SATAN: I always do my Chicago-homework assignments, lovely Zoe.

Her name was Zoe, and she'd been employed at the Chicago Federal sometime after Goldfinger began his 'media-insurance' campaign about blood-diamond chess and underground prestige, and I was studying Ralph Ellison and tracks of economics-tied politics corruption in the post-9/11 era tied to conflict-zone gem financing of 'rogue' terrorism and warlord-regimes in Africa (wow). This is solid cafe-study activity, and Ellison drew me to the lovely Zoe in the challenged Windy-City of the 'proverbial' Bulls-Bears market(s).

ZOE: Why'd you mail me that Ellison book, Mr. Satan?
AMLAN SATAN: I wanted you to be knowledgeable for heist-day (for Interpol-relation).

ZOE: What's my role...here?

AMLAN SATAN: This is for 'good-cause' and you'll escort me to the Goldfinger safe-boxes.

ZOE: What then?
AMLAN SATAN: You'll put your scarf on the security-camera and I'll do the gem-swap.

ZOE: What's the message to the manager/guardsmen?
AMLAN SATAN: Goldfinger's prepaid politics-PR insurance message-stunt (insider-secret).

ZOE: Alright!

The heist took about 45 minutes, and I walked out with $20M worth of Goldfinger's blood-diamonds after making the swap with my toy water-guns (filled with hot acid!); placing glass beads in exchange and some fake diamonds with a note reading, "More social-media commentary ensues regarding Goldfinger-ties to Windy-City gem-market insurance journals for everyday consumers/reports."

ZOE: All's I know is this 'James Bond' character was working an 'Interpol-relation' media-insurance message about Chicago diamond-storage and integrity; ties to a Euro-detective (perhaps)!

I took the subway with Goldfinger's diamonds in the soles-of-my-shoes (ha) and made the (Interpol-relation) commission-exchange before returning to the bank unmasked to grab Zoe and flee to Zurich (forever?).

ZOE: What now?
AMLAN SATAN: You're free of that black baron.

ZOE: Maybe I'll become a 'Swiss-cheese' fan of social-media for Euro-life.

AMLAN SATAN: I'll become your best friend in this hole world (ha).

BARON GOLDFINGER: I expect nothing less than absolute idealism regarding gem-media insurance bank-talks tying with my Euro-apple (now!).

EURO-DETECTIVE: You're certain this 'James Bond' man had Interpol-relation of a secrecy-confidentiality report agenda, Zoe?
ZOE: I'm absolutely positive; the baron's been working more with vault-securities and gem-insurance journals (complements of social-media gibberish!).

EURO-DETECTIVE: Good.

"Zoe/Satan fled to the Alps and retired after this 'Robin Hood deed' concerning the Euro-detective of Interpol-relation journals tying with blood-diamond insurance 'media' conversations, and the Windy-City would cast this 'fantastic' faerie-tale of 'dark' proportion as an exemplary note of what makes modern (post-9/11 era) American capitalism and treasure-securities chess ideations such a 'hallmark' for Homeland examinations."
