Death on the Fourposter Page #3

---

- All right, I'm going.

- Finally, a decent score.

- You never know with Serena.

Yours.

- Look at this.

- 12.

We are at 80,000.

Your luck is incredible.

I'll bet everything.

Too easy, you want to settle

everything in one go?

Set or you go up to 160,000.

Don't you like the risk?

Yes, and you?

Isn't that what I do?

- But on one condition.

- What?

You have to play

Katie half a minute.

What are you going to do with

half a minute of Katie's time?

Me, nothing...

but I could let

Anthony enjoy himself.

- What if I don't want to?

- I can't lose all the time.

Do what I tell you.

I accept.

Anthony, Katie is yours

for thirty seconds.

Exactly.

I'll confirm.

You lost, but you understand

that I have to play the game.

Of course.

I'm ready for revenge.

What do you say ?

But with one condition.

Let's see.

If you lose this time, you're

still playing for Katie...

but this time for ten minutes.

With Sergio.

With Sergio, for ten minutes,

in another room.

What's the matter ?

Don't you have the courage?

What do you think ?

Sergio is handsome.

It's your decision.

I accept, I'm bound

to win this time.

- Are you really sure?

I lost.

The check, for me.

For Sergio, Katie.

- I don't have to.

Gambling debts must be paid.

Is that not true, Paolo?

- It has always been my rule.

- Mine too.

You see, yours was

also an illusion.

All that reassures us...

can finish in an

instant, like life.

You are serious ?

Why ?

It's just a game.

Yes, a game but...

How far does it go?

Up to you to decide.

I can only obey.

And if I told you to undress.

And if I told you...

to undress.

And Paolo?

And you ?

I swear Anthony is a real

magician, he is never wrong.

I would like to be part of

one of your experiments.

I have always loved

the occult sciences.

Give me an object and

I'll tell you its story.

One moment.

Serena, I came to enjoy myself.

Why did you tell them

about my experiences?

I always do what I

want, and you know it.

This box belonged...

to someone who had died.

A violent death.

She was a woman.

And she meant a lot to you.

It was my mother, she

died in a car accident.

Guessing the past through

an object is great.

Why don't you ask him

to predict the future.

Can you?

We are the future, it starts in

our mind, then our personality.

- I want to know my future.

- We men are here, too.

I will please you all.

Something of the future

that concerns you all.

Even more interesting.

Take that and bring me a candle.

Come all here.

Sit.

I'm asking you... two things.

Absolute silence, and

a little patience.

It's necessary for my concentration.

- Do you want to turn off the lights?
