Fabulous! Love the scrying the future from the froth line. And overall, nicely philosophical in a compact setting.

Mr. Earnest. sweet. Doesn’t it all boil down to a single statistical probability?

lol “keep the change” very nice =]

Awesome terse/ tense /philisophical dialouge, I like the how coin was central throughout even up to the end. Great job. One Of my favorite of your ficlets!!!!! You really did a fantastic job with this challenge.
