texture · 8 Nov + later Nov YDAU

When: Lyle refers Doucette to Mario after the I.-Day gala (8 Nov YDAU); the sauna attempt recounted later in November (114).
What: Lyle sends the mole-self-conscious Anton Doucette to "come on back with Mario Incandenza the minute the I.-Day gala lets out"; in the sauna, exploiting a prior therapeutic bond about the mole, Mario "kept telling Doucette to just imagine somebody doing somersaults with one hand nailed to the ground," which did not help much.
