“no particular bargain.”
Gordon told Blackwell that Blackwell would be paid. Blackwell separately says he did not employ Bell for wages.

“no particular bargain.”
Gordon told Blackwell that Blackwell would be paid. Blackwell separately says he did not employ Bell for wages.

Listen to the asymmetry without finishing it.
Keep the carriers adjacent without making one explain, answer, or repair the other.
Still open: actual later payment; Gordon outside this first two-voice beat; cross-carrier order; Robert identity beyond this source-local occurrence.
Last change: Robert is carried in printed source language; the room does not treat that English as recoverable actor speech.
Meeting rule: this is Lamplight’s camera, not a conclusion you inherit.
