How do we do this? Uncle Josh asked. We divide them up, read through them one at a time, I said, dealing out the files as if they were an oversized poker hand. I'm a chef, not a lawyer, Paul said, shoving a steaming tuna melt into my mouth. It was utterly delicious, especially after a few days of hospital chow.
In the story, Uncle Josh inquires about their process, asking, "How do we do this?" The narrator explains that they handle the task by dividing the work and reviewing each part individually, comparing the process to dealing cards in a poker game. This approach helps manage the workload methodically and efficiently.
Meanwhile, Paul humorously describes his role by saying, "I'm a chef, not a lawyer," as he eats a hot tuna melt, appreciating how delicious it is after days of hospital food. This moment adds a lighthearted touch to the narrative, highlighting the contrast between the seriousness of their work and the comfort of simple pleasures.
