#1 ...I had honestly thought he'd died a few years ago.

And I gotta relate this bit from a late 90s novel whose name escapes me: Terrorists decide to carry out a hostage grab to free Carlos, and it all goes horribly wrong - all the hostages dead, most of the terrs.

Carlos knows none of this, assuming he's on his way out the gate in a few, deciding what tropical paradise he'd like to be flown to, etc. Right on cue, the prison administrator shows up with two hulking guards, and Carlos figures this is it, time to get going. But instead, the administrator just smiles and says, "The President of the French Republic sends his deepest condolences."

"Why?", Carlos asks.

"For the heart attack you're going to have tonight. Au revoir."
