HARTFORD, Conn.—Junior Ella Witcher had been in this situation before.

Some things we know for sure: Harpoon IPA will almost certainly be involved. Ella Fitzgerald’s recording of “Just One of Those Things” will definitely be involved. Semi-obsessive men will be involved, probably Latin political operatives instead of drunken WASPs. Her CIA underlings will be confused by e-mails like “overthrow Chilean government...
