- I will not assume that I know what’s going on.
- If I go anywhere for rest and relaxation, I will not take the hero along with me.
- I’ll tell the hero HE can go into town for the information, while I watch the camp.
- I will realize that I do have a life of my own.
- I will realize that the Hero is going to get me killed, if I am not careful. That he avenges my death because he feels guilty about this is not something that will make me happy.
- I will be very quiet. I will not act boisterous and draw attention to myself. The probability of getting killed is much higher if the enemy knows who I am.
- If I am tasked to carry this very important message, I will make copies and use FedEx to get them to their destination.
- I will accept the fact that I am not the Hero and the sexual advances made towards me by the beautiful captured spy is a lure to kill me and escape.
- If I am the town drunk, I should stay the town drunk and happily live out the next 40 years instead of getting killed by cleaning myself up.
- If I am a noted warrior, I am still allowed to wear clothing with sleeves.
- My shirt is allowed to be buttoned.
- If my partner is named Dirty Harry, I should realize that there is a reason for that and ask for a transfer.
- If my partner is Don Johnson, I can do the world a favor.
- I will adapt a skill at pattern recognition. If the last 4 sidekicks have died gruesomely, so will I.
