three of these people, who are all medical people, put
their heads together and they get liquid Valium, and they
send a doctor to get the liquid Valium, and he pays for it
out of his pocket, he brings it back to the hotel, and

Wouldn’t that give you the impression that this
is the guy pulling the strings? If he can tell three
doctors who’s already gone to all this trouble of getting
the liquid Valium and carting it back and sending a doctor
to get it with thirty dollars in his pocket, and they come
back, and he pulls the plug on this thing, would that give
you the impression he’s in charge?
