June seemed to turn something over in her mind, looking at it; there was silence before she spoke.
"I've got an idea," she said.
"What?" he asked hopelessly.
"Let's get married when this is all over. I'd like it better even than a thousand a week."
"You're nuts," he said. "Marry a phony—a blowhard? That's why you never did marry me, isn't it? Isn't it?"
"Yes," said June. "And I said, if you remember, that I'd marry you if you ever figured that out. Which you have."
"I've got to go see the desk clerk," said Otto. "Told him I'd help with his—ah—radio set. But here's an idea—why not get married Friday at Big Butte?"
It was all too fast for Archy. "Big Butte? What's that?" But Otto was gone, and June began to tell him.
It was an evening ceremony, the Big Butte, Wyoming, wedding and well attended by everyone but projections. There were no more free-moving projections. Every one in the nation had gathered at Big Butte, in the middle of Wyoming, for a popularity contest and organizational meeting organized by Archy and the Archy projections, backed by Full-projection money. And when they were gathered—the whole fantastic crew of them—Otto had actuated the gigantic scrambler concealed on the butte and the insubstantial pageant faded, leaving not a wrack behind.
