Form up and meander with the other two towards the park, as suggested. After hearing X mention the game, Block rolls his eyes to the sky and say, "I dunno man, we made too many wrong mistakes!"
Assuming Mr. X want to talk about the game, drop into the prattle a doctor or a hairdresser will use with a patient - responding to the cues of the conversation while keeping a decent focus on the task at hand. If appropriate, do slip in another Yogi Berra quote.
While I'm thinking about it, call up the "for sale" listings in the area. Is there a tight cluster of listings that might indicate people itching to flee "bad neighbors" in a hurry?
