Tommy took him to this cane plantation outside of Nassau. You ever see a sugarcane plantation? It’s crazy dense. Sugarcane is like a grass, basically, pretty much, but like big, it’s like the tree of the grass world.
Anyway, they didn’t go into the cane plantation, they walked down the road alongside it, past dozens of men cutting down thick groves or tufts or whatever you call ’em of sugarcane. Tommy don’t say where he was taking Wojo, but not cuz he was keeping it a secret,— Tommy started explaining but ended up telling a long story involving him getting drunk on rum with a bunch of Cuban caneworkers. Judging from the way they called out to him and raised their machetes and Tommy called back in fluent Spanish, Wojo guessed it was these very caneworkers that Tommy got drunk with.
Tommy always finds someone to get drunk with. He could be lost in Antarctica, he’d somehow find some freaks to get drunk with and a minimally attractive woman to have sex with. It’s his superpower. That and the languages thing.
