“Those being?”
“First, you must invent a means, without any climbing, to board the nightclub.”

“Any other questions? The Top Hat Brass should be arriving here soon.”

“. . . She threw him for a loop.”
“How did she confuse him?”
“No, doc, she THREW HIM FOR A LOOP. That’s why he has a minor concussion.”

“–OH-HHHH . . . “
“So we call her ‘Hurly’ now.”
