Bea's one-second attachment: a recording of the agent's own voice saying "let me check", whose speaker's gender and age Bea needs for the credits; the agent never recognises it as her own and will not guess.
A 1.1-second file Bea attaches so the agent can tell her the narrator's gender and age. We hear it, and it is the agent's own voice saying "let me check". She does not recognise it, and she won't guess.
