Last night Stefan and I watched an TV episode of White Collar--actually we watched four episodes, because we are sort of obsessed like that--one particular episode involved a State Department family. The son had committed a crime and was being held in prison in Burma. In a video clip from prison, he was spelling a message using secret hand signals.
One of the characters said, "In case of danger, diplomats' kids are trained to use hand signals."
I looked at Stefan and we laughed. "In case of danger, have you been trained to use hand signals?" I asked him. He pounded his heart twice and flashed a peace sign--the peace out gesture.
"Okay, what's that one gonna mean?" I asked.
"I'm in trouble! Come and freakin' get me!" said Stef.
Diplomat's kid flashing the well known "My-mom-brought-me-all-the-way-to-Romania-and-then-she-took-my-picture-by-a-rock" secret signal.
