    YOU - “I should write a screenplay.”

    KIM KITSURAGI - “Oh? What about?”

    YOU - “You know. Me! Detective work, policing, hard living, and disco - who wouldn’t watch it?”

    JEAN VICQUEMARE - “Oh, fuck. You’re going to make a movie, are you? Want to make the next Martin Scorsese’s Goncharov?”

    ESPIRIT DE CORPS [Trivial: Success] - Kim is looking at you. He is worried.

    ENCYCLOPEDIA [Medium: Success] - Goncharov is not a real film. It is an old joke from microblogging site Tumblr which recently revived to great fanfare. If you don’t reveal you know this, you will look foolish.

    YOU - What about Martin Scorsese?

    ENCYCLOPEDIA - What about him?

    YOU - Is he real?

    ENCYCLOPEDIA [Easy: Failed] - It’s a matter of debate.

    PERCEPTION [Medium: Success] - Kim is looking harder. He is worrying harder. You have spent an abnormal length of time pondering Goncharov and Scorsese.

    1. “Kim, is Martin Scorsese real?”

    2. [Drama - Medium 10] Bluff your way out. Out-bullshit the bullshitter.

    3. [Savoir Faire - Impossible 20] Do a backflip.

    DRAMA [Medium: Success]

    YOU - “Don’t bullshit me, Jean. Everyone knows Martin Scorsese’s not real.”

    ESPIRIT DE CORPS [Easy: Success] - Everyone laughs. In this particular instance, they are laughing with you.
