MannyCapra, 250 year old uber Charles Foster Kane and boss of The Company, is looking for a new plaything. Much to the chagrin of his 18 going on 99 year old sidekick and Vice President Hardyman, the CEO resolves to bump off the only living star of our times, the multigendered crooner Hail Vanity.

Time for a change, young man. MannyCapra recruits his psychotic henchman Apsley Moran (Vanity's boyfriend) to organise the hit and it is performed to the letter at a rally in St James' Park by Moran's specialist, a New Yorker who models himself on a 1970s undercover cop known only as Deconstructed Man. That's some brutal, ruthless marksmanship right there.

MannyCapra is delighted with the results. Hardyman seethes and plots. Somewhere else, Brontay is about to become part of a revolution.
