From: Infiltrate a gentlemen's club

Success

One of the chaps already

You bluff your way nicely into a conversation between two red-faced old fellows, both of whom are so, [...] so delighted at the prospect of a fresh listener that they share all manner of confidences with you. [...] A very profitable evening indeed.


Failure

A bit of a faux pas

You spend an hour subtly making conversational advances to the gent in the fireside arm-chair; [...] Your embarrassment upon discerning that he has been quietly deceased for some time now necessitates a swift exit.
