The FBI had an opening for an assassin. After all the background checks,
interviews and testing were done, there were 3 finalists; two men and a
woman.

For the final test, the FBI agents took one of the men to a large metal door
and handed him a gun. "We must know that you will follow your instructions -
no matter what the circumstances. Inside the room you will find your wife
sitting in a chair. Kill Her!!!" The man said, "you can't be serious, I
could never shoot my wife" The agent said, "Then you're not the right man
for this job. Take your wife and go home."

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went
into the room. All was quiet for about 5 minutes. The man came out with
tears in his eyes and said "I tried, but I can't kill my wife." The agent
said, "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go home."

Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions:
K ill your husband! She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were
heard, one after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the
walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and there
stood the woman, She wiped the sweat from her brow. "This gun is loaded with
blanks" she said. "I had to beat him to death with the chair."
