Chapter 1: Section 6: Page 47: Line 44 (837)

 "Well we . . . we try not to talk about that."

If Max's statement, "pastry-depravity," was as innocent as I'm assuming it was even though it sounds like American detectives love to stick their dicks into doughnuts then Lew's response (this sentence) politely explains to me that I made a terrible assumption and Max actually was referencing how American detectives love to stick their dicks into doughnuts. If the topic were just about certain people's affection for devouring doughnuts, I'd imagine Lew would readily discuss it. I know I would. If somebody were all, "What do you think about doughnuts? Love them? Hate them?", I would reply, "I rarely eat doughnuts because I find that if I eat one doughnut, I always want a second doughnut. And if I eat two doughnuts, it makes me wish I hadn't eaten any." Then I'd wink flirtatiously at the Boston Cream.
