I'm not trying to start a back and forth here. I just want to know who Marc Grayson is as far as his business (he seems to do something in fashion based on people's comments).

No, he does not work in fashion.

He is the Keyser Soze of the forum.

The second comment was a joke.

If you guys would like to know how, I'll explain how to set up a forum website for the discussion of whatever you want. This one is not for the discussion of "Marc Grayson". Okay? If you really need to obsess, just search through the archives here and at Andy's. But please, read my lips: no new topics.

Okay. One thing's always bothered me about Hans Gruber. He comes into the lobby area of Nakatomi Corp. just after the takeover, and he's looking for Takagi. He knows everything about Takagi, from where he grew up, to where he went to school, to how many children he has - everything about him except what he looks like. Takagi is a very senior guy in the Nakatomi corporation. Undoubtedly there's a picture of him somewhere - either in corporate literature or as a part of the print media. How can Gruber NOT know what he looks like?

After reading the above, I know what you're all thinking: "How did this guy ever find anyone to marry him?"

Where was it that Hans said he had his suits made?

From the IMDB website:

Hans Gruber (to Takagi): Nice suit. John Phillips, London. I have two myself. Rumor has it Arafat buys his there.

The answer is simple. Â Gruber failed this test.

Because it would've killed the suspense. We wouldn't want that, would we?

Yes, I will admit that even if he just read up on a docket on him it would have included at least one picture, if not several. Ah, well, you catch them all before you ship the master print, can you?

Gruber knew. He was just seeing if the guy would have the stones to out himself.
