Still at the restaurant, Picknar asked Thoos, “so, what was your good reason?” Thoos said, “blackmail. I received a letter, saying they were going to kill my parents in a couple of weeks unless I paid them off.” A bit skeptical, Picknar asked, “and the experiment was going to be enough to pay them?” Dismissive, Thoos said, “blatz, no. You and I were earning chump change. But it would allow me to clean up and go home respectably and tell my parents. They have the money. It’d be a drop in the bucket for them. But now I have no way of getting back and warning them.” Picknar asked, “what’s your last name anyhow?” Thoos replied “sigh. If you must know, ‘starslick.'” Amazed, Picknar shouted, “what? Really? Like, one of your parents is the actor? Wow, you do have a lot of money!”What?” Thoos said, “no. Not that pauper. My parents own Starslick Ship Manufacturing.” Picknar stared at Thoos, silent in shock, and then said, wide-eyed, “mind blown.” Knox leaned over to Rodrigo and asked, “are you following any of this?” Rodrigo replied, “just enough to feel entertained.”
