“Stew-pod?” Belen said. “Is it stew-pod?”

After Aunt Sandy left, Mari and Belen talked on. They talked about what they got for Christmas and about their friends back home and about clothes and makeup.

“You know what makeup is called in Italian?” Mari said. “Trucco! It means trick! Don’t you think that’s funny?”

They told me they liked Uncle Max, that he was “a good guy.” And then Belen remembered something Uncle Max had said in an assembly once. “Remember after Bork was expelled and your uncle gave that talk? Remember? He asked us that question: What would you do if you knew you wouldn’t be caught? What a question! And didn’t he say you could judge a person by what he would do if he knew he wouldn’t get caught? I think about that all the time.”

And so she and Mari talked about what they might do if they knew they wouldn’t get caught. Would they steal a wallet? A television? Would they sneak out of the dorm? Would they kill someone?
