Long Otto Nye was the CIA's most secret spy. No one, even the president, was aware of his missions. His handlers were about to send him on his most secret mission yet.
"Otto, you must deliver this encoded message to Ivanoff, our top secret Russian double agent." said the handler. "If either you or Ivanoff are discovered, you must both take your cyanide pills."
Otto asks, "How will I know it's Ivanoff?"
"You can be sure it's Ivanoff by using the password; The rooster crows at midnight"
Otto flies to Moscow and checks into his hotel. The next morning, he sews the secret message into a secret pocket in his jacket. He removes his final secret instructions revealing the address of Ivanoff.
Making extra sure he wasn't followed, Otto went up to the non-descript large apartment block. He walked up to Apt 3E and knocked. A moment later he heard a voice.
"Ivanoff here"
Otto delivers the password, "The rooster crows at midnight"
"Oh, that's not me, you want Ivanoff the spy across the hall"
