If you're going to shovel the twaddle, you've got to waddle the waddle?
Maybe he needs to feather his nest a bit by upping the bill:
1 roll of standard grey duct tape $3.29 1 Victorinox Genuine Swiss Army Knife (confiscated) $35.95 1 massage to recover from being tied up with hands behind back for 13 hrs. $125 1 instance of extreme loss of dignity (duck walk to avoid detection) $9.95

Personally, I suspect he could get the massage gratis, as long as he asked the right person in the right manner. But surely he can charge a higher premium for the loss of dignity!!

I'm basing the price on the fact that Mac is not the type to price that as highly as he probably should. He's a pretty humble guy. Jack would charge much more, not because he isn't humble in his own way, but because he values his dignity so much more.
I agree about the massage though. That's where he's deliberately sticking it to Pete. It's his way of complaining about those 13 hours, since he knows that if he asks for a day of fishing, Pete will grant it, but call him in for something unbelievably urgent before he can actually take it.

Hah! I see it: Mac passes the cash along to the pretty neighbour lady who's trying to get her massage business going. Then he takes her, um, fishing. Eventually, he gets the massage, although not as a client, since she has to adhere to the professional code of conduct.
