  Person on Tape : [voice on tape]  Good morning, Mr. Phelps. The man you are looking at is Miguel De Varo, the liberal President of Costa Mateo. Recently, De Varo announced a $40 million industrialization program for his country. This program is to be financed solely from funds in the presidential vault. However, this man, Phillipe Pereda, Costa Mateo's Finance Minister, secretly removed the money and deposited it in a Swiss bank. Since it is reputed that the presidential vault can only be opened by De Varo, it is Pereda's plan to frame the President for embezzlement and take over the country. De Varo considers Pereda to be his closest friend and would not believe that his Minister of Finance was planning such a move. You mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it, would be to stop Pereda. As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. Good luck, Jim.
