No amount of beggin, pleading, swearing, threatening... well don't threaten them. But anyway, Do not raise the Iire of the Agent, nor the notice of the Agency.

Soooo Sorry, you need to be as Inconspicuous as possible going through customs/borders but not TO Inconspicuous, they'll hunt you down like the Dog they believe you are.
