“Have you ever passed the night in chokey, Jeeves?”

“It renders the appetite unusually keen. So rally round, if you don’t mind, and busy yourself with the skillet. We have eggs on the premises, I presume?”
“Yes, sir.”
“I shall need about fifty, fried, with perhaps the same number of pounds of bacon. Toast, also. Four loaves will probably be sufficient, but stand by to weigh in with more if necessary. And don’t forget the coffee — say sixteen pots.”
“Very good, sir.”
