Dammit, now we’re having fun and flirting again, which we definitely shouldn’t do, should we?

Subject: PAIGE IS MISSING. PLEASE HELP.
Dear Guy,
My name is Vivian Whitlock. I am Paige Chadwick’s roommate and best friend. I need your help. I have called your office several times but have not been put through to you and I’m not sure if you have gotten my messages.
Paige has gone missing and I’m afraid something very bad has happened to her. If I had to guess, I’d say she may have been in a plane crash somewhere over the Benavente Islands. I have flown to San Felipe to try to engage the police and/or a search and rescue team, but I’m afraid they are not taking me seriously, as there is no evidence of her having been on a plane and no one has reported a missing airplane/pilot.
I believe that the best way to apply pressure will be to get as much publicity around her disappearance as possible, and I cannot think of someone more equipped to handle this than you.
Please call or email me as soon as possible so we can start working together and bring Paige home.
Regards,
Vivian
P.S. My phone number is 212-555-5678

Dear Paige,
Thank you so much for your email. To say I’m alarmed would be an understatement. Paige is vital to the operations here at Prescott Marketing and Ad Solutions. I will call you in exactly three hours and twenty-two minutes, when I will have time to sit down and talk through some options. I am copying Lyle Federer on our communications, as he will be your point man on this once you and I have spoken.
Yours,
Guy
Vivian’s Good Life Vlog
The video starts with Vivian standing on a palm-tree lined street in front of a two-story Spanish colonial-style building. It’s evening and she’s dressed in a pink and orange sun dress and woven sandals. “Hi, my friends, Vivian here. I never thought I’d find myself here in the Caribbean under such circumstances. It’s been four days since I last heard from Paige Chadwick, my best friend in the entire world.She was en route in a small charter plane to her sister’s wedding on Azure Island, which is an island that belongs to the Benaventes, but she didn’t show up. I’ve spent hours on the phone with various people at the airport authority here, but no one seems to know about the flight.”
The sound of a car honking nearby interrupts the video, and Vivian looks up at it, then back at the camera. “Paige’s mom and dad will be meeting me here at the police station in a few minutes, and we’ll be filing a missing persons report. Again, if anyone has any information about a small—and I’m guessing older—plane that is unaccounted for, or has a friend who is a pilot who has such a plane that you haven’t heard from for a few days, please DM me. We need to get the word out about Paige. And we need to act fast or we may not find her before it’s too late.”

Dear Vivian,
It was great to Zoom with you. Guy appreciated your insights and thoughts on this matter. I am reaching out to a list of our biggest celebrity clients in hopes that one of them will agree to put out a video on our behalf. This is a complicated and largely political process, so there is a chance we’ll strike out.
