But they're familiar with the drill-they know they'll get the pitch from a senior executive, then end up working with a junior like me-so they picked me out and now they want to vet me. But to be fair, the RFP provides a lot more information than it asks for in return. It's as good as a brief, so I really can't accuse them of being unreasonably demanding, just meticulous. Par for the course when dealing with Cross Industries." He ran a hand over his tight curls, betraying the pressure he felt. "What do you think of Kingsman vodka?" "Uh...well...Honestly, I've never heard of it." Mark fell back in his chair and laughed. "Thank God. I thought I was the only one. Well, the plus side is there's no bad press to get over. No news can be good news." "What can I do to help? Besides research vodka and stay late?" His lips pursed a moment as he thought about it. "Jot this down..."
" I bit my lip and was glad he couldn't know how much that hurt. I stared out at the road. We must be close now. He was driving much too fast. "What are you thinking?" he asked, his voice still raw.

The real treachery, and what we cannot tolerate, is any attempt to make their profit in a way that threatens the reliability of our shortcuts. The blitz of modern daily life de- mands that we have faithful shortcuts, sound rules of thumb in order to handle it all. These are no longer luxuries; they are out-and-out necessities that figure to be- come increasingly vital as the pulse quickens. That is why we should want to retal- iate whenever we see someone betraying one of our rules of thumb for profit. We want that rule to be as effective as possible. To the degree that its fitness for duty is regularly undercut by the tricks of a profiteer, we naturally will use it less and will be less able to cope efficiently with the decisional burdens of our day. That we can- not allow without a fight. The stakes are far too high. Summary II Modern life is different from any earlier time. Because of remarkable techno-

Big. Vincent passes through this ordeal without betraying M r . Big, like a Grail-questing knight refusing to yield to grievous bodily temptation. But, as we shall see, in another arena, another branch of his Hero's Journey, Vincent fails a more spiritual test.
