"I saw it as I passed the model shop on the way in."
Kennely took Devon's arm and hoisted him out of the chair. "Look, Chris, I'll tell you a secret. Here's how I get Mac on the line. Slip him a couple of these six-bit cigars —"
Devon laughed and gave up. You couldn't do anything else with a guy like Brian Kennely.
They walked down the hall to the model shop as Mac opened up.
"I hear you've got my baby all done," said Kennely.
"You only brought it in Monday," said Mac "I told you Wednesday."
"Always kidding, eh?" said Kennely to Devon.
"What's that over in the middle of the floor?" asked Devon. "Isn't that —? Mac! You finished my model, too!"
The foreman stared across the shop at the two completed models. "Well, I'll be —! The boys must have put on a little extra speed yesterday. I had to leave early in the afternoon, but I didn't expect anything like that!"
They entered the shop and walked around the models.
