Put me inside, Steve.
Now, close the lid and then cardlock it.
Gosh, you certainly got out of that tank in the nick of time.
Well, how did you do it?
Did the audience see how you got out of the tank?
No, they didn't, thanks to Steve Dakin.
What do you mean?
Steve was perfectly right when he said that anything Rhoda said or did would be thought to be part of the act, even when he started trying to choke her to death.
I can understand that, but I still don't see how you did it.
It's very simple.
When he started to strangle Rhoda, the audience was so fascinated with watching them that they stopped looking at me.
And I made my escape.
And Steve was so sure that I couldn't escape that he never thought to look over in the direction of the tank.
Well, how did you escape, Blackstone?
I want you to tell.
Yes, I'll tell.
After that near accident that time, I'd never used the trick again.
First, I slipped the rawhide thongs off my wrist.
rawhide stretches in water, you know.
