An open air theatre, somewhere in Europe:

Alexis: I hate this deal...but I have to pretend I'm prepared to make it work...I hope they'll take the hint and force me out

Wolfgang: I hate this deal...but I have to pretend I'm prepared to make it work...I hope they'll take the hint and ask to leave

A 5 year old in the crowd, puzzled at the sight of Alexis and Wolfgang prancing around in the nude:  Mummy, why are those two men naked? Are they getting married?

Mummy: No darling they want to get divorced, but it's difficult for them

5 Year old: Why is it difficult mummy?

Mummy: Neither of them want the crowd to think it's their fault

5 Year old: Tell them to get divorced mummy...I'm bored with this...can we have an ice cream now?

The Fed will eventually get their audit - it'll be carried out by the bond market
