While watching The Spy Who Came In From the Cool I got a very cracky plunnie. What if there was an important case going on and for some reason the CIS needed both The Monkees and Baby Face and his mob to solve it? I'm not sure what sort of case could get a secret agency to turn to gangsters for help. Somehow Baby Face or someone in the gang would have to have some connection with the case or someone involved in it. Oh, maybe it was an operation Baby Face's deceased mentor knew something about. Maybe something to do with diamond smuggling getting mixed up with secret government information and/or drug trafficking. The latter could tie it in with a random idea I was toying with after watching High School Big Shot (a B-grade juvenile delinquency movie) and Monkees a la Carte, which would be Tony objecting to drug smuggling.

The Monkees would be called in both because of their past experiences helping the CIS and because there's an ideal opportunity for them to go undercover and not be suspected. And if they were forced to try to work with Baby Face and his gang, chaos would erupt.

I've also been toying with a plunnie off and on for years that would involve an introspective Tony and the song Early Morning Blues and Greens, which I've thought of as applying to him in my timeline thinking on his deceased (murdered) wife.

If I could get over the plotbump in Prisms, I could tinker with a sequel where Tony's main nemesis (who hasn't been revealed yet in what's posted so far) returns for revenge. After Tony was forced to quit the police department and run for his life, he struck back at the ring of dirty cops by anonymously sending all the information he had gathered against them to another police precinct. As he had hoped, it fell into the hands of honest cops who got the ring broke up and the members sent to prison. The main one causing trouble for Tony has a personal vendetta against him. If he escaped and came back to cause more trouble, The Monkees could get unwillingly mixed up in that calamity, probably because the guy would try targeting Baby Face. He wouldn't know if that would affect Tony at all, but it would be the main thing he would decide to try, as Baby Face is the person with whom Tony has the most interaction now. And hence, Micky could end up in danger.

I'm just randomly musing and don't know if any of these things would actually get written, but since I finished one fic (and have found some interested people to read it!) it's a possibility.
