Like to hop aboard the next plane headed for the mighty sovereign state of Texas?

Why not? And who that?

Jack Price here in Corpus Christi.

Oh, hi, Jackson.

How about it?

Well, you know, I like that time of years, Jack. I always have.

But unless your company plans to pay the freight, forget it. I can't afford it. Now, you don't think like that time of years, Jack. I always have, but unless your company plans to pay the freight, forget it.

I can't afford it.

Now, you don't think for one minute I'd be inviting a character like you down here in just a social

call.

Why not?

I'm a very sociable fellow.

Oh, sure.

Especially when your investigation saves us a lot of money and you can pick up a nice commission

for it. Sure.

But this time, now, there's no way you can save us anything.

As a matter of fact, if what I suspect is true, you'll only cost us money.

Now, that doesn't make much sense.

Doesn't it?

Well, does it?

Why don't you come down here and see?
