   He’s playing a “long game.” According to Wikipedia: A “long con” or “big con” (also, chiefly British English: long game) is a scam that unfolds over several days or weeks; it may involve a team of swindlers, and even props, sets, extras, costumes, and scripted lines. It aims to rob the victim of a huge amount of money or other valuables, often by getting them to empty out banking accounts and borrow from family members. A good example of this was “The Sting” (1973) with Redford and Newman.

   Harry Johnson: If I was accused of murder I would have more legal rights than I know what to do with. But when the IRS audits you, they make you think you don’t have any rights at all. They make their own laws. And they administer them, and they enforce them, and they prosecute them, and they judge them. All that power in one place, boy. Hitler would have loved the IRS. So would Napoleon and Caesar, they’d understand it. I don’t.

   Given Oliver’s habit of walking the decks with a good smoke in hand, he’s lucky it wasn’t him in the water.

   I heard about the “Revolt of the Colonels” in Greece when I was in high school… and this colonel is certainly revoltin’ all by himself!
