Success

A profitable half hour

The dustbins behind the Blind Helmsman provide ample scraps which will pass (…) as genuine rubbery lumps. You manage to get rid (…) before his young lordship joins the drownies. A crowd of revolutionaries note your contribution to the class struggle.


Failure

The hard boot of the law

Your cries of “Rubbery lumps! Batseyes!” draw the attention of the unsmiling constabulary. They truncheon the crowd (…) then turn their attention to the tentacles. You and the young chap in the zailor zuit both escape, but not without a few bruises.
