The Eternal Night #33

"I appreciate you meeting with me, Mr. Randolph," Mason said in a tone that suggested it wasn't that genuine of a statement.

"Call me Jake. And you're welcome," I said as I motioned toward the bar.

Mongo was standing there with his mouth open and I closed it as I went by and asked Mason if he wanted a drink.

"Martini," he said, sitting on a barstool and looking around.

"Nice place," he said. Another imitation statement. If this was an indication of his acting ability I feared for this project.

"Well," I said, "the roaches seem to like it."

    Mason sounds like a right wuzzock!

    Typical Hollywood actor. Or at least a stereotype of one. Maybe he'll get better as things go along. Jake might whip him into shape, figuratively if not literally.

    He’ll probably have to do so literally!
