Agent Y is from the elite group of statisticians who form the Government's Not So Secret Bureau For Covertly Transforming People's Lives Through The Strategic Application Of Statistics.

His job is to help people to improve themselves and their relationships by using statistics to suggest what course of action it would be best for them to take.

For example, did you know that couples that wash up the dishes together are 32% more likely to stay together than those that don't.
