The Millionaire offered Clancy a proposition he couldn't turn down if he would find the missing El Grecos hidden somewhere in Spain. The Girl Who Went with the Deal presented Clancy with trouble he hadn't expected, and a challenge he couldn't resist. The English Gentleman politely gave Clancy one last chance to bow out of the competition gracefully, before he was put out of action permanently. The Kinky Counterculture Kids showed Clancy that you didn't have to be over thirty not to be trusted, as they introduced him to a whole new generation of perverse evil. And no one could be trusted, as Clancy bet his life he could solve the El GReco puzzle.
