Review of Come Clean

. . . Stan replies to Ollie's question about what he plans to do with his reward money for catching Killer Kate at the end of COME CLEAN. Earlier in this story, it's established that the going rate for one quart of chocolate ice cream is 75 cents. This is the retail price, meaning that a gallon of the frozen dessert is setting customers back by exactly $3. You do not need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that Stan could therefore acquire 333 gallons, plus a smidgen more than 42 additional ounces, of the icy brown treat at the take-out price, assuming that the store has a freezer large enough to contain it all (along with the gallons of the strawberry, pineapple, pistachio and gooseberry flavors then all the rage). No doubt Stan could get upwards of 500 gallons for a thousand bucks by cutting out the middle man, and negotiating directly with the creamery. This is all in sharp contrast with Ollie's original plan, which was to divide a mere quart of the frigid confection between four grown adults. While this eight-ounce ration might be more that a teaspoon full each, it's not by much.
