"What?"
* * * * * * * * * *
"What?"?! You're telling me Lew's got a visual photographic memory but he has an inability to comprehend conversations? What is he confused about?! Here's how the conversation went:
"How many cigars are in that box?"
"Seventeen."
"Not many people can do that?"
"What?"
No, no. I'm being too cynical! I suppose Lew could have meant, "What? Count?" or "What? Recognize cigars?" or "What? Perform tricks at the request of strangers?" I suppose the "What?" is supposed to indicate that Lew's visual memory is such an ingrained part of him that he doesn't realize what he just did was unique or special.
