The most poignant thing about Nick during Three Fugitives was that he set a bedtime for himself of 8:00 p.m. I found this astonishing. “When do you get up?” I asked. “Around three thirty in the morning,” he said. “And what do you do at that hour, Nick?” “I take a long bath.” “And then what?” “Well, I try to read, but I get kinda tired.” “So why do you go to bed at eight, then, Nick?” “To avoid those dangerous hours, buddy.”
