On a totally unrelated topic, I was once privileged to go on a few business trips to Japan, separated by at least six months. At one point I picked up a slang Japanese phrasebook, and was all hyped up about being able to try out my new street slang. When I got off the plane, a business contact from my last trip was there to meet me. I sprang my cool new expression on him, which according to the phrasebook meant "good to see you again".
His face paled in horror.
After he got his composure back, he told me not to use that expression again. He said it was only used by Yakuza and gangsters, and it was roughly equivalent to "so, we meet again, my deadly enemy."
Bad phrasebook. Bad. Bad.

My nipples explode with delight. :-D
Neko_Ali:
My hovercraft is full of eels!
Kugai:
Well sell them at the fishmarket then :D
brasca:
Strip is up!
And our mystery man has a name. Although his goon doesn't appear to be a Randy Milholland doppelgänger like I thought.
It would also appear that he has steam technology at least or possibly an early internal combustion engine in that carriage
