"You've got my mug mixed with somebody else's." "Have I? Well, you'll come to the station with me, anyhow, and be looked over. The description fits you all right." The cop twisted his fingers under Cork's collar. "Come on!" he ordered roughly. Cork glanced at Ruby. She was pale, and her thin nostrils quivered. Her quick eye danced from one man's face to the other as they spoke or moved.
Their voices were lusty, but their time erratic, and one ardent spirit was a bar ahead and gaining audibly with each lap despite the desperate spurts of the rest. "Opened out his throttle 'e has," whispered an Army driver professionally to his neighbour; "'e's a fair cop for exceedin' the speed limit."
As an Exponent of the more advanced Play he was a Fliv, but as a Matchmaker he was a Hum-Dinger. He knew he was plain pastry for the Sharks, so he would hang around the first Tee waiting to cop out a Pudding. One day he took on Mrs. Olmstead's Infant Son, just home from Military School.
The proprietor was a druggist who ran his own fountain where the synthetics that replaced honest Earth foods were compounded into sweet and sticky messes for the neighborhood kids. He looked up as Gordon came in; then his face fell. "New cop, eh? No wonder Gable collected yesterday, ahead of time. All right, you can look at my books. I've been paying fifty, but you'll have to wait until Friday."
"I think those two cops are still at the corner below," he remarked." We'll turn to the left without looking to the right." They turned to the left.

If a cop ever stops you and begins asking questions, just you tell him you're a performer.
Michael McGurk, the father of the actual brick artist, who had learned that the cop was getting wabbly and was entertaining the preposterous possibility of withdrawing the charge against the innocent Mathusek, to the imminent danger of his own offspring.
Bruce had been a football player in his day and was aware that there were times, if one were at the bottom of the heap, when relaxation was the play. As far as his position made it possible, he relaxed. And, in the meantime the plane swept downward. For one fleeting instant he saw the white traffic cop of the Arctic wilderness still standing with paw upraised.
Never-r-r! he whispered mysteriously. "'Oh, come off! said I with a foxy wink. Don't you think because I am a countryman I gambol exclusively on the green. I am not altogether to the emerald by a pailful! I've got you where I want you, and you know it! Quit your fooling and hand over the wallet! There's a cop over there now, I added meaningly.
Vall and Tortha Karf were talking cop talk about method of operation and possible size of the gang involved, and why the slaves had been shipped all the way from India to the west coast of North America. "Always ready sale for slaves on the Esaron Sector," Vall was saying. "And so many small independent states, and different languages, that outtimers wouldn't be particularly conspicuous."
'Na, yer can't do thet now; it's bigamy, an' the cop tikes yer, an' yer gits twelve months' 'ard for it. 'But swop me bob, Liza, I can't go on like this. Yer knows the missus well, there ain't no bloomin' doubt abaht it, she knows as you an' me are carryin' on, an' she mikes no bones abaht lettin' me see it. 'She don't do thet?
