Shuck snuffles; riding is absurd.
Ryuki is answering Sunae but he's watching Mitch--how do Marc's people do business? "It makes about as much sense as collecting salary and expenses from my father. The money belongs to us as a family, not me personally. Here's the kicker, though--dad expenses the company that he owns. No matter how much money you have, you need to track it. Slippery stuff, gets away if you don't track it. That and the IRS might want to know too." He's been doing this for so long he doesn't know how to explain it to someone who hasn't.
