The card on the top of the deck is now a joker. "What’s the numerical value for a joker?" he asks, and Enoch Root says, "it’s fifty-three, for either one of them." So Randy gets a free ride this time; he knows that if he begins counting down from the top of the deck, when he reaches 53 he’ll be staring at the last card. And that card happens to be the Jack of Clubs, with a value of 11. Eleven, then is the first number in the keystream.
