Dorothy stirred something in her pot as she continued to talk to Amanda.

"I never thought I'd see an old friend as young as you, agent, or should I say..." The old woman turned her head back and looked at Amanda. "Former secret agent?"

"What are you talking about, Dorothy. Secret agent? I'm not an agent," Amanda replied calmly.

"You don't have to hide it from me. I saw it myself when you fought that thief. The kick you used was a technique that agents use. Ordinary people wouldn't realize it, only fellow agents know the technique," Dorothy explained.

"Only... Fellow agents? Could it be... You too..."

Dorothy chuckled and placed a plate of biscuits on the table. "Right, nice to meet you."
