"The One Trick Rip-Off": There're plenty of gangs in Los Angeles, but on the west side, it's the One Tricks. That's what Tubby is, a One Trick, but he's hungry to be someone else, someone out of Los Angeles. He and his girl Vim want to escape, but before they can, they need some cash. And that's what the One Tricks got, about a quarter million. If their plan comes off, they're set for life. If it doesn't, their lives don't matter much anyway. -- "Deep Cuts" is a collection of stories created during Pope's time traveling the world in the 1990s.
