Melquiadas studied the box on his desk. He picked up the phone and dialed.

-Terry? Um, what's the deal with this box?

-Oh... well, it was here when I came in this morning.

-It doesn't say. No return address either.

-It's about five cubic inches and brown.

-I don't know.

-I can't.

-Well, that's the thing... it has no seams.

-None. It's as if it is one continuous piece of cardboard.

-I know most boxes are, but they glue or tape them shut. This is just... I don't know... there's no flaps or anything.

-I've checked it several times.

-I know that's impossible, but I wasn't about to start cutting this thing open without talking to you first.

Melquiadas and Terry studied the box on his desk.

    OK, I'm hooked. What's in the box?

    Do you have ideas on where to go with this?

    Also, is that name a reference to that Tommy Lee Jones movie?

    let's get another installment.
