Kim Cheatle's Coming Assassination, Fully Imagined

• 1:03:58Tim imagines Kim Cheatle on her back deck in McLean, Virginia, drinking cheap wine and contemplating her demise.
• 1:04:16Dealers of death only care about life and death, dismissing concerns like thread count and sauce thickness as irrelevant.
• 1:04:59Within four months, a fat Midwestern mom will be hired to sit on Cheatle, and she knows it's coming.
• 1:05:48Every sound she hears registers as a potential assassination—the end of her life waiting in the humid Virginia darkness.
• 1:06:10Former Special Forces and agency personnel leave with their gun and skills, not money, making them available for wet work.
• 1:07:00She knows it might not happen immediately, but it's a real possibility—she's been in rooms with people it already happened to.
• 1:07:54Months later, she's drinking on her deck when she stumbles upon this episode and sees Tim's face before the bag goes over her head.
• 1:08:24Despite everything, it wasn't a bad life or a bad ride—she was meant for this work and wouldn't have been happier owning a bakery in Georgetown.
• 1:09:15Once she becomes a liability—a loose end who gets boozy and angry—she's going to be eliminated.
• 1:09:35A mother from Michigan who makes tater tot bake for her demon children will sit on Cheatle—the most American way to die there is.
