fleecer

In a great set piece from the first episode, Jimmy entices Kim to join him in a little scam—fleecing a would-be fleecer out of rounds of expensive drinks.

The men at The Dalles who had the interest of the place at heart would point the swellerino buck out to young strangers who looked as if they might be likely victims of the Indian short-card fleecer, and tell the young goslings just where and how the buck stood.

Before he had started on this trip he had scarcely thought of money, except that at Fox & Fleecer's there would be waiting for him a cool, clean million.

"Fox & Fleecer never predict," said Mr. Fox slowly, "but in a general way I should say that if we were to buy in as much as we sold, the market would probably be strengthened rather than depressed."

Fox & Fleecer had instructions to unload at a dollar twenty-five, and they follow such instructions absolutely.
