Michael's not really an umbrella-drink kind of guy, but Stephane loves them, along with big gestures and big plans (and he sure hopes the sleazy import-export/smuggling king next to him is buying all this, because there really isn't a Plan B).
"You're based where?" the guy asks.
"Bordeaux, via Martinique." Michael smiles with too many teeth.
"I don't do a lot of business in religious keepsakes or figurines."
"They are quite valuable," Michael states. "Hollow and easily sealed."
"Hmmm…" The man reconsiders, while Michael finishes his drink. "Another?"
Ah-they're getting somewhere. Michael smiles and signals for the waitress. "Merci."
