[ Jesse may be a little rusty on bar scams at this point, but listen--hes' no stranger to weaseling people out of their money. Particularly intoxicated individuals. He's done it before. Hell, he didn't even have to do much of anything to get Mr. White to hand him his entire life savings. Jesse knows how to use that big, blue eyes gaze to his advantage. People feel comfortable around him. He seems soft and innocent at a first glance. Maybe a little less so these days with the scars, but he can still work those puppy dog eyes like the best of them. ]
Yeah, start small. Sounds like a good plan. I'm in if you are.
[ And it seems like Saul's in, from what he can tell. He's generally good at reading people at this point. ]
Hell, between bar scams and game table scams, plus the little slot machine thing going on the side? I think we got something goin' here that we could really use for a leg up in this whole operation.
[ Jesse doesn't have anywhere to go, necessarily. He'd been heading to Alaska when he found himself suddenly at The Elysium listening to the whole worker orientation spiel. But he doesn't question that or the fact that he's stuck here. It feels less "stuck" for him, considering the place he'd escaped from prior. This feels like freedom or at least a pathway to that. ]
So what's the whole 'can you keep a secret' scam? How's it work?
[ Jesse moves closer, an eager look on his face. Consider yourself Mr. Miyagi, Saul, and this is a young grasshopper eager for guidance. Hone his skills and you'll have a formidable weapon on your hands. He's eager to please. ]
