afternoon and promise to do the few small things I ask you... I will in return show you the most important thing... that any living organism has ever witnessed. At this point there would have been some discussion. Abe would, of course, want to know how. Aaron would have to explain all about the storage manifest... and how it showed two rooms under the name Abram Terger. Then Abe would need to know how. Aaron would explain that when he went up there... and found the Failsafe running... he knew exactly what it was. But Abe would ask how. And then the bit about the modular design of the coffins... and how it meant he could fold one up and take it back inside another. They are not one-time use only. They are recyclable, Aaron would say. How, Abe would ask. And Aaron would describe how simple things become... when you know precisely what someone will have for breakfast... even in a world of tamper-proof lids. How? And that's where I would have entered the story. Or exited, depending on your reference. Because when Aaron came back the second time, it wasn't so easy. He wasn't expecting me to put up a fight. And by that time, he was too exhausted to take me. But for reasons that are only evident to me now... I understood that he simply wanted it more. That he just had more invested. So I left. He had already performed the task, as I had intended to... of recording the conversations of the day just in case. Through that earpiece he had a three-second lead on the world. Aaron, you need some sleep. Some real sleep. I can't. I've got a schedule. He had but to speak aloud the words that came into his head... and those around him would fall in line. This is Track 3. Abe is bringing my car around and I am on my way to the court. I'll see Will there. I'll invite him to the party and make sure he's bringing Rachel's boyfriend. Will. You pretentious prick. What the hell is that? Is that your cell phone? -No, it's a radio, man. -You look like Secret Service. -You look like Secret Service. -Ariel meeting is moved to Wednesday. What? What the hell am I hanging around here for? Yeah, I know. Sorry. Nice shot, Aaron. Brick. That is ugly, Aaron. We could have used that last week against TI. At least you've got your golf game. I see you've been practicing. You come out here with your $3 tie and think you can play whiteball. What are you doing tonight? I was supposed to be in Raleigh. Thanks to you I missed my flight. -You know Robert? -Yeah. He's got a birthday tonight. Why don't you come out? -I'm just going to hang out with my cousin. -Bring him. Rachel will be there. -Big reunion. -Exactly. I don't think I'm doing this. Why not? Because I can think of a million different ways that this can happen... and nobody comes anywhere near getting hurt. I can call her and see if she wants to do something else... or better yet, not even talk to her about the party. That's good for tonight. What about tomorrow? And every other day? -I'll take care of tomorrow, tomorrow. -You'll watch her always. This guy is crazy enough to walk into a room of people waving a shotgun. What do you think he'll do if he everfinds her alone? This way, we know exactly what happens. We have complete control over it. At the end of the night, this guy is arrested and goes to jail. That's the way it goes. Your words, not mine. Now come on, it has to be you. She said she was there because you told her you would be there. Don't tell me I came back and did this for nothing. He doesn't fire? -No. He didn't fire. -He neverfires? -Not even when you rushed him? -No. He didn't. He didn't the time I was, when I rushed him. And from what Robert tells you, he didn't do it tonight. He doesn't have the nerve. We know everything. Okay? We're prescient. We can still be careful. Maybe we can get to the gun without him knowing. We definitely can. He leaves it in the truck
