(b) the client slapped the papers hard down on the table, all the while transfixing them with that terrible gaze. “no f—ing way i’m paying for this report! it’s a poor derivative of a wikipedia article – i’ve had it checked, you know! this, peppered with surfactual tidbits even a breastfeeding child knows to be mere fancy!”
