This is just a big blank over here to me. #66: Remembering your stage 4 matrix on this, considering the boss's location in itself, let's take a look at the stage 4 matrix and see what other information comes out, (mumble) from the boss's location. #63: Boss's location,....desk in there, ...something over here, the entry door to his place is here. ...............This is all out structure and I don't how to try to keep it in. But he has a plan, he seems friendly, but it is only to accomplish his goal. ....He's foreign, he speaks english, ...loner. #66: These are obviously some tangibles and intangibles from your other stage 4 matrix.

End. #66: Okay, let's do a summary and if you'll lay your sheets in front of you, let's do a summary and lines and telling me a little story about this place. Start out something like this is a building with several floors. Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : C1 "001900450002-2 Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : HU-1058/8314/63 #63: It's a building of many floors. We are interested in one or two floors. They're about half way up the building and it has a new feeling to it as though they just moved into that particular floor. I don't see a lot of furniture or anything else, (mumble) a lot of people (mumble). Half of, half of that floor seems vacant to me. You access that room by elevator and you arrive into a lobby, small lobby, colors are blue and white. And to the left as you come out of the elevator is a viewing window like receptionist's window or something, like she has to buzz the door for you to be able to come in any further than the lobby. And behind that receptionist's area is the boss's office. #66: We'll walk through your structure here and tell me how you came to arrive that there was some one central figure of interest. #63: Because of the void feeling of the floor, I kept being drawn back to the left rear corner of the area. And the rest of the building felt vacant, but I came to that one area, that's where all the activity that was taking place, on that floor, was taking place. #66: Okay. Let's look at your activity stage 4 matrix and summarize it., #63: Um...I have a man, I have this exclusive guarded, temporary and concentrated of the intangibles I have. #66: What was the word? What were words again? #63: Exclusive, guarded, temporary and concentrated. #66: All right. #63: Feel like he's doing the whole thing himself. He has people coming and going and they're helping him, but he's in charge. #66: And what is it this thing that he does? #63: He's planning something. Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : 001900450002-2 Approved For Release 2000/08/0 . 0788 R001900450002-2 #66: Okay. #63: He is medium height, little---- #66: --And you feel as though there is some focus on this singular individual, something that concerning this singular individual? #63: Um, um. I feel that people are a little frightened of him, people who deal with him, maybe are afraid to...to wrong him in any way. #66: Okay. So when I asked you to do a stage 4 matrix on personnel, you broke out several things and looked like you tried to focus on one particular person, so we called that person the boss. #63: The boss, right. #66: Okay. Let's look at the stage 4 matrix of boss and summarize. #63: Okay. He is ah..solid physically, built about like you are. He is self assured, he's in charge and he knows it. There's many people coming and going. He seems friendly on the outside, but that's in order to accomplish his mission. The people that deal with him are little frightened of him, I believe. He's dominant, he controls the people. I believe he's light complected, wears casual clothes, has dark hair, perhaps black hair and a beard. #66: Okay, now you had some intangibles in terms of language? #63: Yes, he's foreign, I believe. #66: Okay, he's foreign. #63: But he speaks English. All the transactions that I saw him doing there seem to be in English. #66: All right. When you say foreign, do mean foreign to the location that he' s in now or do you mean foreign to you and I or don't you know? #63: Let me think about it for a second. ....... I don't know. #66: Okay.

Now, looking at your page where we broke structure, you need to summarize out of that. #63: Okay. That's the plan he seems friendly to accomplish his goal, foreign but speaks English, he's a loner. But his plan doesn't, isn't for around the area where he's in, it's for elsewhere. I tried to get elsewhere, but I couldn't. I see a city, I do see a city. #66: Okay. #63: --That the plan is for some city somewhere and people coming and going and that's it. #66: Okay. ..........I have no further information, but I would like for you to look at what you've got and see if you would like to do your own stage 4 matrix with any of the elements that we've explored or one that you would like to explore. Perhaps there is something on the signal line that we have forgotten to ask about that needs to be asked. #63: I would like to come back again tomorrow and work on this again. #66: All right. Let's do an end then. #63: Okay.

Adjacent to this office was a lobby or reception area which controlled access to the office,. Something about this location was new, as though the room had Just been occupied. Activity in the office centered around one main figure, a "boss." This "boss" controlled other people (not further identified) who' visited the office.
