  Supreme Being: That thing with the flying fruit was not my idea. It was effective though, wasn’t it? If you will refer to number 5768 of my list you will note that my initial plan was to have your ministers decide to leave the meeting on their own since it appeared that Douglas and McDougal were not going to show up. The rest of the meeting, I thought, went extremely well. Host

  To: Host. All’s well that ends well. God, cc etc. etc.

  To: Host. I think I just heard a chuckle coming from the Record Room. It could have been Scribe but I don’t think so. I see what you meant by listening closely to Douglas’ words; very well done. I do hope that at least part of it came from him. Gabriel, cc Scribe
