You look the word up in the dictionary, right, and you'll find my picture with a red X over it. "Not Alfie Solomons".

[plundering]

And right underneath that is "hand kissing, definitely sappy".

[devoutish]

"Exception - when done by a gangster".

[plundering]

[He is really good at getting her to laugh, and she's totally doing it again.]

Bandit. You're a bandit.

[devoutish]

Yeah, and are you questioning my bandit dictionary, Fiona?

[In reality, he knows plenty of gangsters that are capable of sappiness, but yanking her chain is fun.]

[plundering]

Yeah, I am. It's biased.

[devoutish]

Well, you certainly aren't getting hired as editor.

[plundering]

I would be a kick ass editor. I'd keep you honest.

[devoutish]

You'd insert jokes everywhere and it would be fucking awful.

[plundering]

[Wow!]

Are you saying my jokes are awful?

[devoutish]

Do they make people laugh?

[They totally make him laugh. He's hiding a smile right now.]

[plundering]

Everyone. Especially gangsters.

[devoutish]

It's not easy to make gangsters laugh. Could say you've got a gift.

[plundering]

Do I? You think I can use it to my advantage?

[devoutish]

We're a tricky lot. Hard to take advantage of.

[plundering]

But not impossible.

[devoutish]

Are you up for the challenge?

[plundering]

Always. It's not fun otherwise.

[devoutish]

Who's gonna be your test subject? Not me, surely.

[plundering]

Don't think you could handle it?

[devoutish]

It wouldn't work. I'd be expecting it now.

[plundering]

I could get you when your guard is down.

[devoutish]

And when would that be?

[plundering]

Your guard has seemed pretty down for the last twenty minutes.

[devoutish]

It has seemed that way, yeah. But is it really?
