"Croquettes." "Croquettes?" "Ok, babe." "Croquettes it is." "I've stuck my foot in it." "How could I be so stupid?" "Because you know what honor is." "You're the only one who'd say that." "Well, don't get down over it." "All we can do now is send him to the Philippines or somewhere." "Check it out, will you?" "Hey..." "Sir?" "I'll handle it." "Something to eat!" "Your table's ready."

"You don't have to go, Kikawa." "As of today you stay here." "Sure, Boss." "How long are you going to hang tough?" "You're the guy who shot old man Sawada, aren't you." "Is that what he says?" "He wouldn't say that." "He's a yakuza boss." "So who did shoot him, then?" "You don't have a witness..." "We've got something called 'circumstantial evidence' ." "Enough of it to burn." "Then file the damn charge without a confession, then." "Don't be like that." "Just give me a report I can write up." "I'll make it look good for you, Mr. Ishimatsu." "Okay, then..." "... tellme..."
