The intro didn’t grab my attention, but as I kept reading the story became somewhat interesting.
I thought the dialogue reflected natural speech, and its use in this story very effective.
The game between the “nut” and the two psychologist held my interest as the nut danced and play verbal volley-ball with the two psychologist. The dialogue was well crafted which made understanding easy.
The story reminded me of the Twilight Zone because of the dialogue used, little action and
the character came across as black and white to me. I haven’t watched the Twilight Zone in over
forty-years so maybe my memory is playing tricks.
I don’t understand how the nut put poison in the coffee, but it was a nice twist at the end.
Not a bad story. A nice effect with the dialogue!!!
