"Shall we go?"
"Guess so."
Ted said firmly, "I'm following you in. I'm going to see John McLean tonight. He's a good lawyer."
There was a ring of command in Al's voice, "No, Ted!"
"But—"
"Don't come to Lorton tonight! Stay right here!"
Ted said reluctantly, "If that's what you want—"
"That's what I do want. This thing's too harebrained already. No use makin' it more so by actin' without thinkin'."
"I'll come in in the morning."
"If you think best. So long for now."
