@pluralistic, re "Picks and Shovels" I don't understand: Marty just told the Reverend Sirs he wouldn't take 25% because he could do his job perfectly, they botch the acquisition, and Marty'd get nothing. Then he just takes the counter-offer of the lesser of his hourly rate or 25%. That's not better, that's far worse. Was the point that Marty was bluffing and the Bishop saw through him? Or just how bad Marty was at negotiating back in his youth?
