1. My wife is from New Zeland.
2. I can't smell.
3. I have an assassin actively chasing me down back home.

[burying]

The third one's got to be bullshit.

[questioningmermaids]

Nope! That one's right on the money.

[burying]

... What, seriously—?!

Like I know you're a private detective and that— but— you legit have an assassin after you?!

[questioningmermaids]

Yeah. Looked like that guy from the Waltons, John Boy.

[ Wait, he's British-- ]

Picture a numpty chasing you and that's about the same.

[pacificator]

Either 3 is the lie, or they're the worst assassin ever.

[questioningmermaids]

What if I told you I shot one?

[pacificator]

The one that's still around is still terrible at their job.

[questioningmermaids]

Ouch. Maybe I'm good at what I do.

[thefifthchild]

First one.

[He's not elaborating.]

[questioningmermaids]

No. Jesus. You really think I'd marry someone with that accent?

[thefifthchild]

There should be a law made against Americans commenting on anyone else's accent.

I mostly doubted the idea that you were married, at least presently, at all.

[questioningmermaids]

Was. She's gone now.

I have a kid, you know.

[desperate_times_right]

[No listen, sometimes people set assassins on you for stupid reasons. That could be true.]

What city?

[questioningmermaids]

[ Shit. ]

Kiwi...ton...

[desperate_times_right]

Ha! Okay. You can't smell?

[questioningmermaids]

Literally can't smell. Not a single damn thing.

[fidior]

[ Surely three is the lie, but.... you know what, he's not actually sure when it comes to Mr. March. His life seems so colourful... ]

I should dearly hope the lie is three...

[questioningmermaids]

[ A sharp whistle. ]

Sorry, pal. That's real.

[clothed]

[ two and three must be true. ]

You have no nose?

[questioningmermaids]

I've definitely got a nose. It's a handsome one. I just can't smell. Got hit in the back of the head a while back and just-- [ He blows a raspberry ] --nada.

[clothed]

If the back of your head was injured, why is it your nose that no longer works?

[ this sounds like a lie, if sansa may say so. #doubt ]

[salamanca]

[ Lalo studies March for a little bit, head tilted. ]

First one's the lie. [ Point. ]

[questioningmermaids]

Damn, got it in one. She was British.

[salamanca]

[ He knew it!! Fist pump! ]

Hell yeah! I knew it! [ :D ]
