Hex, hex, hex, hex, minus, minus, minus, minus, minus, minus! One, one, one, one! Tonight, the Trap by Finn O'Donovan. Samish, I am in need of some assistance. The situation is potentially dangerous so come at once.

It shows how right you were, Samish old friend. I never should have trusted a Terren. What a sorry mess, Samish! And the plot seems so foolproof! Hey, Thurston, Thurston, get up, Get up, come on.

What's the matter, why? Come on, it's daybreak. Now there's good news. Let me unlock. Come on, you don't want to sleep through our vacation. The bird's on the wing. It's five o'clock in the morning.

Five o'clock in the morning in the Adirondacks is the middle of the day. What's the weather out? Oh, it's raining. But crying out loud. Oh, don't go back to sleep. You always raise to the first day of vacation.

It's rule of nature. But I got a little fly rod with a new plastic reel and I'm just dying to try it. And what the trouble with you is Ed, you're in love with sporting goods equipment.

Now where do you see this rod? You can take that rifle as soldier. You can shoot a ride in a serious weather, but you won't. Because Ed, you're essentially a friendly man. The trouble with you is you don't like the woods.
