So now we know why Sam isn't interested in sex any more. Or at least the reason he gives "himself," or us as we listen to his story.

Kind of unnatural for him to be telling us all of this, isn't it? For the way the story is written, Sam is narrating it to us, consciously. And Sam doesn't seem to me to be the type who really would tell his story to anybody. Still, the "gumshoe" talking to you, the reader who isn't even really there from his point of view, is such a standard literary convention that I'm not attaching any importance to it. Perhaps Sam is actually speaking this story to nothingness, since there's nobody to hear...

He is just a ball of hurt, Sam is. I love the character, but more and more I think that nothing he has done to anyone else has been as horrible as what he's done to himself. And that's saying a lot. I wonder if he'd agree?

He went impotent, essentially, from watching a huge slobbering vepr rape various victims during interrogations. There's something to consider. We all know one huge vepr, don't we? Even if Tony was not the critter Sam refers to here, this story suggests Sam doesn't think highly of Tony's species.

That could be because veprs are just generally scorned in the Slop universe. There does seem to be a deep prejudice about them in some circles. Or it could be because of bad experiences. Or both. In any case, Tony Ray needs to deal with Sam, or make a deal with him. And this hostility isn't going to help things there.

Of course it could be that Sam has become so much the professional, lost so much of his soul, that he isn't any more able to work up a good hate than he is to work up lust any more.

Poor Sam, what for most of us would be something nice, is a nasty chore. That he had to do twice.
What will he find out? Will he find out about Brice?
And if so, what will he do with the info?
Also I bet Carol will make sure Redmond will get 'sloppy seconds'.

Of course now I want to see that 'veper'.

Around the office, she takes the knot. I wonder is like that in our world she <insert whatever you fantisize here> by rumor?

Poor Sam, having to do something he really has no passion for anymore. Still.. damn, he's hot.

I have to admit if I were in a position where I had information he wanted and I could convince him to just let me have my way with him, then I'd tell all... I'd go for it

This page really needs a song to go with it.

This song is very Sam and very sleazy.
