I'm sorry to do this to you, my friend. I'm aware that your grief at
not being there in person for the photo shoot may break you, but I have to show you this preliminary photo:
Angie says "hi", by the way.

Dear Mr. Young,
We regret to inform you that upon receiving the email
reprinted below for your convenience, Kieran Downes
was in fact overwhelmed with grief at having missed
this spectacular occasion and is currently
hospitalized at an undisclosed facility specializing
in broken-heartedness. The authorities believe that
while the photos alone were probably enough to send
him into a fit of despair, it was even the
possibility, the most remote chance, that Angie
Pontani would pass along her personal greetings that
pushed him over the edge. His condition remains
extremely serious. We will keep you informed.
The management

Oh. . . my . . . GAWD.
