Ooops, I hope I did send that to Joseph. I don't know whose name is next to his in the directory.

Clambers out of the limo, a few bedraggled feathers fluttering down onto the wreckage behind her. Stamping her foot, she glares at the Henchman.
You again! Shouldn't you be back at that school doing something useful? You wait til Herod finds out you've been chasing cars.
Pointing melodramatically into the centre of Bethlehem, one sleeve trailing from her outstretched up.
The baby King is hiding there somewhere. Shouldn't you go find him?

Meanwhile, in Terminal 5, Capt. Pilot is pacing up and down the concourse, looking at his watch and doing other movie-type things to indicate that Time is Running Out. Airport tannoy, with highly impatient voice:
This is the LAST call for passengers on Brian Air Flight 666 to Ibiza... er... Giza. Please proceed immediately to Gate 22 for boarding. The flight is ABOUT TO LEAVE.

Taking advantage of her position, Mary serenely slinks out through the open door, unobserved by the henchman. Confident that the Godmother is more than capable of taking care of the baby Jesus, she hides under cover of a handy piece of canvas... then runs like a bolt out of the blue, dodging behind trees and road signs (well, she has regained her figure remarkably well), following Brian for the gate to the terminal.
