“What girl? What dock?” “Remember that hallucination I told you about? That was it. I’m not exactly sure where the real left off and the unreal began.” “Tell me.” “It was in Saint George’s. When we were gassing up. I was standing on the aft deck, minding my own business, when out of the blue this girl, this local teenager, starts talking to me.” “What do you mean, ‘out of the blue’?” “I didn’t see her coming. I just look up and she’s there, standing half a dozen feet away on the dock.” An uneasy feeling crawled through Jack’s stomach. “What’d she say?” “Some nonsense about throwing it back in the water, but never said what ‘it’ was.” The uneasy feeling had graduated to gripes. “Did she—?” Tom waved a hand. “Wait-wait. That’s not the crazy part. Here’s where I think I lost it: For no reason at all she pulls up her shirt.” “She flashed you?” Jack felt a faint tinge of relief. “I see where the hallucination comes in. Who’d want to flash you?”
