He observes for a bit before asking them how to play the game. Then, he throws a quarter, which lands very close to the wall. He proceeds to pick up the quarters and tells the group that he prefers to quit while he’s ahead. One of the other players asks Larry if they could potentially have another try to win back their quarters, but Larry refuses.
