“The secret is in the glue,” said Franky. “This new sealant 
never comes undone. The fi sh will hold together indefi nitely, 
and the dupes…I mean citizens…will be none the wiser. We’ll 
call these new fi sh ‘offi cial fi sh’ and we’ll use them to pay back 
the depositors. Let our boys into your vault for few days and 
your fi sh crunch problems will be solved!” 
Goodbank was stunned. He had to admit that the trickery was 
impressive. The corners of his mouth crept up in a smile. He was 
tired of having to say “no” all the time. It was no fun. Nobody 
liked him…they called him a tightwad behind his back. 
“Maybe this is the way out,” he thought. “Maybe this is 
a ticket to popularity. First I get the fi sh…then I get the 
power…then I get the women!”
But then his good sense rushed back. “These people aren’t 
magicians,” he thought. “Fish don’t grow on trees! All the 
senators can do is create fake fi sh by diminishing the value of

“Come on, the 
depositors will get

‘offi cial fi sh’ looks 
skimpy next to a genuine 
fi sh! After all, people 
have been eating fi sh a 
long time around here. 
Everyone knows the 
value of a fi sh. They may 
not be that easy to fool.”

Answering in his most diplomatic voice, Franky tried to 
calm Goodbank’s fears. “We thought of that. So for a start, 
‘offi cial fi sh’ won’t need to be too much smaller. We’ll 
make 10 offi cial ones out of every nine real ones, so they’ll 
be only 10% smaller. In addition—and this is the genius
