- Has it been successful?

- Successful? Do you hear that, Count?

- Gad! What's this invention called?

- A ladder. Of course I may think of a better name for it later, but...

- With this invention, folks I can go on being a deserter forever! The military police will never find me up there, folks!

- How much?

- Well, to anyone else, ten shillings. But to you, 38 pounds.

- Oh, I couldn't take advantage. I'll pay what everyone else does. Ten shillings. How would you like it?

- In thirty-eight one-pound notes.

- Right. See, I've got forty pounds here... I'll just peel them off. Forty, thirty-nine, thirty-eight. There. Thirty-eight pounds.

- Thank you.
