It was 2:30. AL’S BAR opened at 3:00. Al, sitting by the counter, squinted at the door.

“I know. I just wondered if Frank was here last night. He found some money I hid. I figured he must have gone out drinking.”
“Maybe he went to the track?”
“Nah, not enough money.”
“I didn’t see him. Did you try THE TOP HAT or LEO’S LOUNGE?”
“No.”
“How about TED’S PLACE.”
“No way, Al. It wasn’t much money, and you know Frank. He only goes to crummy places like this…”
