"It's pretty simple to do. Just put the ingredients in before I leave the house and it's done when I get home. Needs a stir." Quite the ingenious invention, though Barty didn't really consider it anything that hinted at a cooking ability. Preparation, he could do that, when he wanted to. "Eat as much as you like. I've got extra."

He wasn't really that hungry today anyway, he had actually had lunch when Tally insisted. That man was always hungry. That man would have also had a field day learning that Barty was having dinner with a whore, but it wasn't as if he intended to tell him. "I'm a lawyer."

Was that interesting for Bill to know? Maybe. "You can call me Barty." Might as well tell him. "How much does it cost? You, for a night."
