 Come one, come all--all unsubbed players, that is.
 
 There's a contest on the message boards at the Cabaret, with a six-month subscription as prize. If you would like to win, get on down to the Cabaret. This could actually be worth paying the $500 to Larry the Toe!

 Big Lucy set the workers in motion to pack up and move the Cabaret yet again. It had been another good night, another night of music, laughter, and dancing - much of the laughter caused by some of the dancing. Another successful night of business contacts made, business deals created, and a few furtive detectives pretending they weren't visiting Shady in his corner.
 
 psychicpotato was on his way out the door, a huge grin on his face. He had come out on the better side of a good deal, and would soon be off to visit London, Shanghai, and Delhi. His competitor had left earlier, empty-handed but sure that he would someday claim a berth on the Sleuthetania.
 
 Tonight there would be another party, more booze, more jazz, more laughs. But for now, there was a bed calling Lucy's name, and she slid into the back seat of the chauffeur-driven Cadillac with a grateful sigh.
