“Hello Jim.  This is Joe.  This is Tracy.  They are miles apart.  He lives in London.  She lives in Sydney.  They are in love.  You mission is to get them together to that they can fall in love and live happily ever after.  This tape will self-destruct in three seconds.”

As Jim started on his mission, the tape self-destructed… too much.  It destroyed everything within a mile of the site.  Oooops!  Mission unaccomplished.
