It is obvious to anyone but an extreme anti-clerical or practical joker that the Bishop must be let out of the coal-cellar.

I thanked the politely clapping audience and suggested they come back in a month and see what Hoku and Kiko could really do (I didn't have the courage to order them to KEEP clapping, and louder, please, so that Hoku and Kiko would do the applause jump). Then I yanked out the mike plug, raced down the ladder into the trainers' little sitting room underneath the stage, and took up smoking again."

This puts people on edge, keeps them guessing, and plays on their need for assurance about their worth."
