Synopsis
 |
An unknown narrator describes a regular day in Vash's life. In a hotel, Vash wakes up early in the morning the moment his alarm clock goes off. Next, he meditates on the subjects of life and love for three seconds. Vash then tosses an egg in the air, quickly drawing his gun and skillfully catches and balances the falling egg on the top, right at the front sight. He trains and exercises for three hours before frying the egg. Vash leaves his hotel room where the woman in the lobby greets him as Mr. Smith. The narrator is momentarily confused, but as Vash reads the newspaper and eats breakfast, the narrator recalls that he was using the alias "Mr. John P. Smith."
