[at the Shadow Play Bar, a man with a large ear trumpet approaches Lev Arris]
Bill Maddox : [loud voice] Ser... Arris, isn't it?
Lev Arris : Yeah, thanks for telling the whole world.
Bill Maddox : Word has it you do odd space jobs here and there.
Lev Arris : What of it?
Bill Maddox : I found my old Grandpa Doug's journal. It's a MacArthur Model 6 Journalmaster Mark 41!
Lev Arris : Lucky old Grandpa Doug.
Bill Maddox : Don't mind if I do, I'll have a beer! You'll have to speak up. Ear drums got a little dented. Too many explosions.
Lev Arris : What's your problem?
Bill Maddox : Next Tuesday. Now, came across an entry... he left an old warehouse full of hardware on Bex just before he died. The equipment is still there.
Lev Arris : I think I get the picture.
Bill Maddox : No, I'm not religious myself. All you've got to do is go and pick the stuff up. Clever guy like you should be able to do that.
Lev Arris : Yeah, but how will I know how to find the place?
Bill Maddox : Just land, and a friend will have the stuff loaded for you.
Lev Arris : What's in it for me?
Bill Maddox : [giggles] My knee is fine! It's my ears!
Lev Arris : Payment?
Bill Maddox : Oh! Six thousand. And I'll throw in a holobook I wrote about military hardware through the ages.
Lev Arris : All right.
[giggling like a madman, Bill rummages through his various pockets and pouches until he finds a disc. He breathes on it and rubs it on his sleeve a couple of times before handing it to Lev. Then he shrugs and wanders off around the bar, holding his large ear trumpet to his ear]

[at the Shadow Play Bar, after Bill Maddox's mission is completed]
Bill Maddox : Hey! You did me a big favour there. Put a little something in your account just now, six thou'.
Lev Arris : [shouting into Bill's ear trumpet] THANKS, BILL!
Bill Maddox : No! I'm never ill!
[Bill walks off, wandering erratically through the bar with his big ear trumpet]
