"You will dress only in attire specially sanctioned by MiB Special Services."
"For the duration of your internship, you will conform to the identity we give you. Eat where we tell you. Live where we tell you."
"You will have no identifying marks of any kind. You will not stand out in any way. Your entire image will be crafted to leave no lasting memory with anyone you encounter."
"You are a rumor. Recognizable only as déjà vu and dismissed just as quickly."
"You don't exist. You were never even born."
"Anonymity is your name. Silence,your native tongue."
"You are no longer part of the system. You are above the system. Over it. Beyond it."
"We are 'Them.'"
"We are 'They.'"
"We are the Men in Black."
"And for the duration, Agent α, so are you."
And there, in Zed's outstretched hands, is a crisp new Suit.
