"You haven't got much money," Monty said.
"How did you know that?"
"You're scared about this room," said Monty.
"Telepathy?" asked Bishop.
"You pick it up," said Monty. "Just the fringes of it. You'll never be as good as they are. Never. But you pick things up from time to time - a sort of sense that seeps into you. After you've been here long enough."
"I had hoped that no one noticed."
"A lot of them will notice, Bishop. Can't help but notice, the way you're broadcasting. But don't let it worry you. We all are friends. Banded against the common enemy, you might say. If you need a loan - "
"Not yet," said Bishop. "I'll let you know."
"Me," said Monty. "Me or anyone. We all are friends. We got to be."
"Thanks."
