JACK 'I'm awfully glad you asked me that, Lloyd...because I just happen to have two twenties and two tens right here in my wallet. I was afraid they were going to be there until next April. So here's what: you slip me a bottle of bourbon, a little glass and some ice. You can do that, can't you, Lloyd?'

The liquor transfixes him, the bourbon he requests is a reference to Europe, what he receives, Jack Daniels, is not bourbon. Instead it's a conflation of father's and son's names. Jack begins a pattern that will persist, a doubling - 'two twenties and two tens.'
