Incentive

 

"Listen.  If Trixie beats my SAT score, I'll eat my hat," Mart scoffed.  He and Dan were sitting in the clubhouse waiting for the rest of the Bob-Whites to arrive. 

 

"That is an empty threat,"  Dan grinned.  "How about if she beats your SAT score, you'll be whatever character she needs in the next three BWG events."

 

Honey burst through the door, Trixie right on her heels.  "Yes, Mart.  I heard that.  I like Dan's idea."

 

Trixie moaned.  "It sounds way too good.  But we know I'm not going to be able to beat his score."

 

Brian, Jim, and Diana came in too late to hear the discussion. After getting caught up, Brian started laughing.

 

"Mart.  I think you need to follow up on this,"  Brian smiled at Trixie.  "I think Trixie will surprise you.  She just needs the right incentive to do a little bit more studying with Jim and I."  No one noticed Jim and Brian catch each other's eyes.

 

Jim piped up, "In fact, I think we should do study sessions with all three girls."
