Doug holds up his open hand, to show that he's lost a finger.
Abe: Four of what?
Doug: There's only four left.
Abe: Oh. (looks around) Where did you

Doug: It was being carried off by a rather
unfriendly creature.
Abe: Oh. OK. So it wasn't here that
you lost it.
Doug: I wouldn't be surprised if it turned
up here, but no.
