Write down the six-letter type of bird found in the title of a Humphrey Bogart movie. In front of it, write a three-letter type of machine that requires a PIN to use. Think of the four-letter name for a Dust Bowl migrant from a certain state (like Henry Fonda's character in The Grapes of Wrath). Put the first letter of that name at the front of your string of letters and the last three letters at the end of the string. Go back and change the first letter of the bird's name to the letter that immediately precedes it in the alphabet. Change the last letter of that bird's name to the letter that immediately follows it in the alphabet. Add a space between the only adjacent pair of letters that can also serve individually as Roman numerals. If you've done everything right, you deserve a treat, which is what the final answer is.
