Hello, counselor, said one.
gpt
Sorry, the roulette room's closed.
human
Let me in, Jim, I said.
gpt
I want to see Thursby.
human
Can't do it, counselor, said Jim.
gpt
We're not to let anyone in.
human
Tell Thursby I'm out here and that I want to see him.
gpt
Damn!
human
What's the trouble?
gpt
No trouble at all, Thursby. I just wanted to watch the experiment.
human
Experiment? He looked honestly surprised, which was a fine piece of acting.
gpt
We're just checking to see if the table's wired, that's all. If it is, your client may be in the clear; maybe we can hang it on the croupier.
human
And get a conspiracy charge on my client, too, eh? Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to watch that table check myself. You know how it is.
gpt
Oh, all right. Come on in. But stay out of the way.
human
Sure. All I want to do is protect my client's interests.
