Gareth Mallory: — No, what we call this is a retirement planning. Your country has the highest respect for you and your many years of service. When your current posting is completed, you'll be awarded to JSMG with full honors. Congratulations.
M: — You are firing me?
Gareth Mallory: — No, ma'am, I'm here to oversee the transition period leading to your voluntary retirement in two months' time.
