At the end of Orson Scott Card’s short story *The Polisy Boy*, Captain Rudolph says:

>! "All right, now I get it, you're giving him the wish of his heart, today. And then, long after he's forgotten, you're going to pop up and ask for his firstborn child."<br><br>
>!
>! Graff replies, "Only I don't have some stupid loophole that will let him get out of it if he can guess my name."

What does he mean by that? Is he referring to

>! the written tests used with his siblings and him, when John Paul was able to wittily manipulate his examiners?

Or is he referring to something deeper, something else?
