I'd looked up Issey Miyake, and Mal's objections were valid.
Mr Reese
I'm having concerns about your plan. I can't see any conceivable kinship between me and Issey Miyake.
I'm a retired US Marine, aged 54, born in South Carolina, with eighteen years service. Issey Miyake was a fashion designer, born in Japan, and thirty years my senior. As I said, I can't see how I could be his kinsman.

But Mal isn't buying it.
Mr Reise
You sound very confident, but I think what you're suggesting isn't as secure as you make it out to be.
Consider this; as I told you previously, I'm a retired US Marine with eighteen years service. Since being discharged on medical grounds, I've been earning a living as a survival instructor. Does that sound anything like the career path of the business partner to a fashion designer?

Before Mal can comment further, the attorney is deployed.
I've changed his names to those of Japanese warships, but it may amuse you to know that the original last name was that of the most famous Japanese warship (and the largest battleship) ever built. I just swapped it for another, less well known Japanese battleship.

You were assuming my consent, and that is never wise. My Gunnery Sergeant always said, "Never assume."
