Sunny McCarthy was reclining in her chair, her bare feet on her desk when Roy called. She didn’t have the heart to tell him that four congressmen and two staffers had been sending her real-time text updates throughout the meeting. So she feigned awe at his triumph: how he set down his demands and refused to budge, how he slammed his fists and pulled concessions from the Leadership. He reported it in the hyperactive voice of the boy who hit a Little League home run and saved the game. Except, Sunny knew, he had never even got off the bench.

“So, how’d I do?” Roy asked.

“Am-aaaaa-zing, Roy.” She smiled.

“We need a drink. To celebrate.”

“Hold that thought. Until the bill actually passes. Anything can happen between now and—”

“Meet me later at the Republican Club.”

“Roy. You have no idea how this town works.”

“This town doesn’t know how I work. Nine o’clock tonight.” Sunny sighed.
