Keeping a close eye on his side mirrors the driver carefully backs up the eighteen wheel bakery truck to the main delivery door of the basement ballroom. As he shuts down the engine a passenger van pulls up and a dozen white clad bakery chefs climb out. Their head chef, his hat slanted at just the right angle, and his handlebar mustache swirling just so, hits the arrival button by the door.

A key turns in the lock and a head pops out, sees who it is and ducks back inside. Shortly the head ballroom chef arrives and words are politly exchanged with his counterpart. Inside a chain rattles and the big delivery door begins to rise.

In side the kitchen one of the larger refrigeration units had been emptied. Earlier that morning the crew had arrived and assemble the oversize 'pan' in the frig. At fifteen feet across and three feet deep it was way too large to fit thru the door.

The bakery chef inspects the stainless surface and pronounces it clean and sanitary. The other chefs already aware of their roles begin to assemble the giant pie.

Hours pass...

Finally they step back and look at their creation. A little bit of everybody's favorite pie has been included. Nodding with satisfaction they begin to file out. The room temp is set just so to preserve the creation. The last man out hangs a sign on the edge of the pan, visable from the door.

It reads: RESERVED FOR THE PHANTOM aka in2d3

He leaves the room and closes the airtight door behind him. Fishing in his pocket he pulls out a heavy padlock and affickes it to the latch. On the wall nearby a small glass box has been mounted. On the outside it reads. IN CASE OF PHANTOM CAPTURE BREAK GLASS.

Inside the glass box hangs a key to the lock and a little instruction booklet. It reads...

Step 1: HOLD PHANTOM TIGHTLY WHILE YOU UNLOCK THE DOOR.

Step 2: DRAG PHANTOM INSIDE

Step 3: WITH GLEE TOSS PHANTON IN PIE> AIM FOR CENTER

Step 4: STIR VIGEROUSLY

Step 5: RINSE PHANTOM IN UBER WASHER

Step 6: REPEAT STEPS 3-5 AS NECESSARY UNTIL PHANTOM CAPITULATES

The pie is now ready
