smoke break

I dreamt that I was in a classroom or buisness place. The building was one of those that had metal framework, and lots of glass for walls, but in a late 70s early 80s way. Some people were outside having a smoke break by a many legged sculpture. It was more like an upside-down octopus. It felt weird as it always does when people have smoke breaks. They have this instant bond that makes absolutely no sense to me... that just because they all need to go outside for this activity, they are instantly friends. I felt that it was an odd reason to feel left out. I didn't like it, but I wasn't going to smoke... So I stayed inside the empty room. Then and old friend of mine KM was leaving the country. We took a tram of sorts and swung on a metal chord all around the city. It felt great in that we could see many things, but a bit out of control in that we couldn't stop where we wanted, or get to know one place better. It kept dropping in all of the places I had been. I was saying how handy it was to KM because I could show her the places. She was glad too because she would have never have seen them otherwise. Then we stopped in that same smoke break area. At that point I think I was a worker, wondering what was going on... then a spy? or... dodging people, sneaking and then bullets were flying. A blond man got it rhough the neck... you could see the hole in the flesh but no blood. It felt someone scary and somewhat exciting to have a purpose there.
