“Damn you, Imaginary Keith!  If you ask me one more time to let you out of that cage, by God, I’m going to come over there and give you a pounding!  Don’t think I won’t.”

“You’ve never even been in a fight, so come on, just let me out of here.  I hate cages.”

“I just need to get Scrine tweaked a little bit . . . “

“OPEN THIS CAGE BEFORE I BREAK OUT AND GIVE YOU A POUNDING!”

“Geez.  Calm down.  What’s gotten into you, anyway?  It’s only been . . what? . . three, four hours?”

“Three days.  Now open the cage.”

“Alright.  But don’t pound me.  Promise?”

“Never bargain with a caged man.  He’ll tell you whatever it takes.”

“No, really.  Don’t pound me.  I don’t want to get pounded.”

“No, of course not.  I won’t.  I promise.”
