""Shit, fuck it!" He starts diving in, Diving in with his flippers" "He flipping and flopping." "The ice cream is on his chest On his beak, he is a rabid." "Anyway, he finishes up his ice cream, walks across the street." "Goes back to the mechanic and goes..." ""So what do you think?"

" Can you believe this?" " So what do we know?" "Well, besides this poor bastard, you got the grandmother and the mom, the little boy and his sister." " So what is all this white residue?" " It looks like Fire extinguisher spray." "I know this sounds a little out there." "But based upon the multiple stages of the burns and the residue.It looks like they doused him with an accelerant, then ignited him." "Then they extinguished him." "Then they repeated the entire process at least two more times." " Who owns the place?" "Whose paying the bills over here?" " Lets see... a Malcolm Varanato." " Varnado?" "Do you mean Malcolm Varnado?" " Varnado, yeah ok!" "That's right.." "Why?" "You know him?" "He's a reporter for the Picayune." "His big brother Weddo Varnado... also happens to be the biggest drug dealer in New Orleans." "What the hell are you saying?" "Meaning?" "Meaning... we just stumble into something way out of our pay grade." "I'm looking at it, Mike." "Its right in front of me." "Come in." "I don't care what you all heard." "Truth ain't determined by a majority vote." "Do you think I'm exaggerating?" "Why don't you all come down and take ride along the streets with us." "Well that's convenient?" "You can call me back if you want to pick this up again." "You know, one day... just one day." " I wish they would declare open season on the politicians." " Yeah." " How are you doing, Pete?" " Good..." "Thanks for stopping by." " What's the latest?" "What's going on?" " Well, a few things." " One of them being a favor I need from you." " Yeah, no problem." "Shoot."

"We'll be lucky if we find anything but pieces." "Which brings us back to the favor." "Homicide requested somebody from Street crimes to... way in." "To lend them a hand and your name came up." "Okay, no problem." "Sounds easy enough." "One other thing." "Johnny Tran." "His lawyer claims you damn nearly tried to kill him." "I disarmed him." "He has a 6-inch straight razor." "And I think he got off easy." "I've seen the pictures, Sean." "I think he got hit by a wrecking ball." " Is that what this is about." "Is that why you called me?" " Yeah, this is what this is about." "Four complains in this many months." "Then the shootout." "Your shits out of control" "Are you trying to blame me for Dave and Trey?" "No, no." "That's not what I'm talking about." "I'm talking about what happened to the house after they got hit." "You've seen Internal Affairs out there questioning your boys." "Do you think they're not the least bit curious about some son of a bitch... at the end of the hallway, killed at point blank holding an empty weapon on his hand?" "It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened." "Look I know where you at." "I do." "I've been there myself." "You know about that." "But you keep heading down the path this dark... and I'll tell you something, son." "...You will never find your way back." " Is that it?" " Yes, that's it." "Hey, brother." "What's going on?" "Colin, what the hell are you doing here?" "Whats fine fucker doing out here" " How long have you been in town?" " I don't know not long... a couple of weeks." "Where's the old lady?"

" I probably going to pack it in." " Oh, you've gonna pack it in." " Alright, we'll drink here." " Okay, Alright... one drink." " Okay, your buying." " My boy, my boy!" "Hey Sugar, two Jamies!" " Was the storm is really bad as they said?" " Oh shit!" "Yeah man." "Right where Letty's brokers, its like an atom bomb went off." "The whole neighborhood's just gone." "But the worst thing was watching people just way through the water right pass these bodies... like they we'ren't even there." "I know I said it before but I want you to know that I really appreciate getting my grandfather out..." "I do." "I drove by his house the other day." "He totally fucking ride off." " How's he doing?" " He's doing good., you know." "And I'm moving with his sister down in Algers." " What about you brother." " You know." "I little this, a little that."

"Yeah but that checks are good if you live long enough to cash it, Collin." "Well thats rich, coming from somebody who chose to be a cop in this city." "I'll take Baghdad over this warzone anyday." "Thank you man." " So whats this suddenly here out of nowhere?" " I do not know." "I'm about to leave town again." "And I'm not sure if I'm gonna come back." "I just wanna see you one last time before I left." "One last time?" "You're going somewhere?" "Great beyond?" "Have you ever done something ..." "Something you wished to God you could undo?" " You know I have." " You have any luck making that right?" "No, it can't be done." "That's what I thought." "Yes." "Now?" "No, Lewis." "No, that's no good." "I'll meet you down by the reservoir." "Sorry brother, but I've gotta run." "I'm going to meet somebody." "Are you fucking kidding me.You talk to me about something like that, and now your gonna walk away from me." "I almost forgot." "I got Jacob a birthday present." "It's a new movie with karate tiger." "I got it in Bangkok." " It is not even out yet." "Just take a look at that." " Colin!" "Come on, man." "What's going on?" " It was good to see you brother." " Colin!" "Wait, my bad." "You said you wanna a driver's license not a passport." " Yes, California one if that's cool." " That's fine." "I set back one here Hold on one second." "Lewis, did you get it?" "Well get it and get back here." "Its gonna take one second here." "Alright, are you ready?" "One, two ..." "No, fuck!" "Its gonna hurt a little bit, mate." "I didn't do anything." "Please.." "I don't even know the guy." "I didn't do anything." "What are you doing?" "Stop!" "Hello Lewis, it's Tom again." "I just thought I could give you another quick chingle..." "I hate to sound like another broken record, champ." "But Sonny asked here to give you another call." "To see if you could stop by studio as soon as you can, that would be great." "Hope you are well and hope to see you." "Alright." "Bye!" "This is ridiculous." "Hey, Crowe!" "Listen, mate." "I really don't think this is gonna work." "This kid's gonna buy any of this bullshit." "How about cutting me out with some of the boys to see what I can dig up." " Yeah" "Renko, what do you say?" "Lets do it." "See through the window boys." "You know what, Sonny?" "I just had the strangest realization." "You and I might be more likely than you ever thought." "Bare with me on this, okay." "We are both artists, right?" "Were granted, we have chosen to work in a vastly different mediums ...Or canvasses if you will." "But we both want the same thing, right?" "All we have to do is communicate with our most sincere intentions and desires." "Isn't that right?" "Is not that right?" "So tell me again Sonny." "Where was your little buddy Lewis supposed to go a meeting?" "He went to go collect a downpayment." "They left about an hour ago." "He was supposed to be back by now." " Where is he now?" " I don't know.Maybe something went wrong." "He went out with his girl." "I swear to God I don't know." " This makes me feel like we're back where we started." " I'm trying." "I'm trying." "Let me ask you a question." "Have you ever heard the legend of Baba Yaga?" "No!" " Hey Will" " Yeah?" "In the owner's cellphone I checked recent calls..." "They're all out going to the same two numbers." "Dialed over and over again." "Then do as you can to trace them." "Its probably a waste of time but you'll never know." " Sean Riley?" " Yeah." " How are you doing?" "Detective Will Genz.." " Nice to meet you." "Yeah..." "Same here." " Who is the OIC?" " That would be me." " Ok." "I'm Sorry, man.Trahan sent me down here." " I know." "Thanks for coming." " We think we could you use on this one." " What have you been working?" "Come on." "I'll show you." " What?" "There's more?" " A lot more." " Mo, can you join us on the roof please." " Okay, right behind you." "Genz." "I'll be right down." "The press is here." "Walk him through this." "I'll be right back." "Hey, Nick." "Can you boys give us a minute." "Alright... so we think this is the owner." "Beaumont." " Is it Sonny?" "That's Sonny?" " Yeah, you know him?" "Yeah I know him." "A small time forger." "Fake ID's, passports, credit cards that kind of stuff." "Well, that explains what we found down stairs." "I read the report on Weddo's kid brother." "Do you think this is the same MO." "Light him up, put him out, light him up again." "Yeah, pretty much identical." " Do you guys think this goes back to Weddo?" " You think different?" "I'm not saying that." "But I tell you what..." "I just don't know anybody thats got the ball to go heads up against Weddo like that." "What are you looking for?" "Well Sonny has this little fucking buddy he hangs out named Lewis." " See that tattoo on Sonny's right calf?" " Yeah" "Well If this is Lewis, there will be one right there too." "See that was their dog, Bonny." "So you mean to tell me this guy and Lewis has a matching poodle tattoo." "Yeah I guess it sounds stupid but you got to meet this dog" "I mean this is like the movie star of poodles Just like fucking Lassie." "You know, tap out numbers with its paw." "Turn around like a ballerina dump on command" "I mean, a pretty special fucking animal." " So let me guess, all witnesses came down to C.R.S." " What?" " Can't Rmember Shit." " Yeah, pretty much." "The way we see it." "The kid downstairs were trying to score fake ID's when..." "Bam!" "The door gets kicked in." "They didn't have time to react." "They just got lit up right on the spot." "Okay so, they do the triple downstairs." "Drag Sonny and this kid up here for the barbeque." " Scared the shit out of him." " Yeah." "By torturing this kid right in front of him over and over again." "Then when they're done with him, they lit him up and left him twisting in the wind." "So how can I help?" "To start..." "Introductions to Weddo ...Sonny's family and friends." "Anyone else who may know why they're target for something like this." "Alright, I'll see what I can do." "I'm driving." "By the way, when you walked in you were looking for something." " Yeah, strays." " Strays?" "Stray bullets." "They weren't any." "I'm not sure if you saw how tight those groupings were but that type of shot takes some serious talent." "So you were checking out the shell cases." "The shooters were all a couple of feet from each other, right?" " So they have issue together." " Yeah or something." "I think I know who we should talk to." "There he is." "Wait until you meet this genius." "Mel." " Hey what's up, man?" " I have a questions for you." " Come over here, I wanna talk to you." " Right on, I'm good." " Its alright, cool." " Just come over here, I wanna talk to you." " Don't do it..." "Melvin." " Alright." "If you take another step, I'm gonna knock the rest of your fucking teeth off." "Get over here!" "Melvin!" "Goddamn it." "You son of a bitch!" "Fuck!" " Nice hit!" " Thanks." " What is this?" " Whats what?" "Melvin, credit card fraud?" "I thought you were fucking stupid for that." " I am." " Well you just admit it to him." "No, man." "I don't admit a shit That's the old man's card." "This is your old man's card." "Rajeev Magambie?" "Are you kidding me?" "My mama's boyfriend." "You do know that this coming thru the mail like they did... that's a federal offense." "Hey come on, tell me what you want." "I'll give it to you." "This isn't the phonebook hommie." " Alright, your boyfriend Lewis." " That's easy, man.Just go see Sonny." "He'll hook you up." "We tried that, he's not gonna be much help." "What about the other guy he's rolling with." "I don't know." "Last time I've seen him..." "They we're running around with some white dude Some crazy ass fool." "...from The Channel." " Do you have a name?" " With a crack rolling name... some shit." "Conner.." "Cone Wade..." " Colin?" " That's it, Colin." "Come on." "Lets get out of here." "Looks like today is your lucky day." "Mo, what's happening?" "Talk to me." "Sonny's cel?" "You got a trace on it." "Hey Sean, one second." "Text me the address." "Shit!" "Sean." " The door is open." " You scared the hell out of me." " Where are you going, Stacy?" " What?" "Where you going?" "The suitcase." " I'm just going to my mom's for the weekend." " Lies!" " Fuck you, Sean!" " Stacy, I saw your car outside." "You've got everything you own in that piece of shit." "Where are you going?" "What do you care." "Where's Colin?" "How the fuck should I know I haven't seen him in two years." " Were you going to meet him." " I'm not." "I wouldn't meet him anytime anywhere ever... goddamn it!" "Two years?" "!" "You haven't seen him in two years?" "What is this?" "No, that's my money." "I've earned it." "I'm getting out of here." "I'm getting cleaned." "I'm going to Florida." "I got an apartment and everything..." " Stop, goddamn it!" "I want the truth!" " I'm not going to meet him." "I gotta to call you right back, alright." "You got to believe me." " You better not be fucking lying to me." " Fuck!" "I swear." "I came home a couple of nights ago and I found Colin on the street." "He was drunk and he was coked out." "He's talking nonsense, run off with some shit." "He was freaking out, he was crying." "And he gave me the money and he told me..." "Don't ask any questions just take it and get out of town." "Did he say where he is going?" "Yeah he said he was going to see you." " What the hell was that?" " What did your boy found out." "I've got a trace on one of that numbers on Sonny's." "This building in some dump in MLK." "That was a quiet ride on the way over here." "Oh I'm sorry sweetheart, I must have a lot on my mind." " Yeah like what?" "Colin?" " Excuse me?" "He's a buddy of yours, right?" "Is he in some kind of trouble?" "Who'd be after him?" "Okay look, are you feeling left out?" "I don't know what he's into, okay?" "The guy is a goddamn magnet for trouble." " So how long have you known him?" " My entire life..." "I've known him my whole life, Will." "Every pile of shit I've ever stepped in Collin's been right at the center." " Going back to what Stacy's talking about, did he?" " Did he what?" "Last night... and you weren't going to tell me." " What did he want?" " I don't know what he wants." "As soon as I'm gonna find out though trust me, you'll be the first one to know." " Are we gonna do this?" " After you, sir." "Well..." "Well hello, boys." "Easy... ease up champions." "Very weird for you for knocking but for now take it easy." "Coz things gonna be fucking ugly real fast in here, if we are are not fucking careful." "Comprende, boys." "Fuck!" " Don't fucking move!" "Stay where you are!" " Wo..." "Wo.." "Sean!" "Wait..." "You.." "Stay the fuck away from me." "You psycho cop... you fucking cunt cop!" " Put the gun down!" " Shut up you fucking loser!" " You are a fucking weak cop!" " Put the gun down now!" "Fuck off!" "You fucking dog!" "I'll kill her" "I'm warning you.." "You're a fucking psycho cunt." "Keep crying sweetheart." "Keep fucking crying..." " Put the gun down now!" " Fuck you!" "You wanna see it" "I'm gonna kill her where she stands!" "She's gonna fucking do it for you" "Right now!" "Her brain is gonna be all over the pavement!" "What?" "What happened?" "What?" " We don't know." "But something went really wrong." " What do you mean something went really wrong?" "I need more fucking details than that." "Reporters were saying that there were some kind of shootout." "They're all dead, Crowe." "Renko, Cole." "All of them." "How the fuck is this possible?" " Hello?" " That sail you have to say to, Raymond?" "That's it?" "Now Mr. Ricther wait..." "No, no, no." "I'm done waiting." "And from the sound of my last phone call wth the company and so are they..." "I have tracked them down this far." "This must have count for something." "Of course it does, the counts thats why you are still capable of taking this call." "You don't have to take this converstation in that direction." "I'll come through, just give me a little more time." "What you need is to accept the fact that is not remotely a possibility." "And deliver as you promised you would." "We worked didn't we, with the risk of stepping into this arena." "That you did, but we've been working together for a very long time." "Surely you can convince the company." "Oh please Raymond, don't do this." "This grambling, seriously I just can't stomach it." "I can't." " All I'm asking you to do is..." " Enough, enough." "It is what it is." "Nothing changes." "You have time until midnight." " Midnight tomorrow." " Now you hold on, Richter." " Das korovai." " Goddamn it, Ricther.hold on..." "Richter!" "Griff, I want you and Dekker find out what the hell went fucking wrong!" "Let's go boys." " Hi!" " Hey, baby." " Are you okay?" " Yes, yes." "I'm good.I'm fine." "Mostly because of this little guy here." "Sean, this is my beautiful wife Beth." " Hi, Beth." " Nice to meet you." "My Princess Sarah ..." "and this is little Mad Max." "Car ..." "Come on, Daddy, I will show you something." " Come on in." " Sean, I forgot to tell you, your staying for dinner." " Thank you guys, this was really great." " You're very welcome." " Is it me, or they are being too quiet." " They're fine." "So how'd you guys meet?" "You wanna tell him one of your versions or shall I tell the truth." "We met in LSU." "My car ran out of gas next to his dorm and he came to my rescue." " Lucky man." " Ain't I?" "Sean what about you?" "Is there a Mrs. Riley?" " Yes, there was." " Any kids?" "We had a son." "His name was Jacob." "He was six years old When he was diagnosed with leukemia." "About a year and half ago, we lost him." "Yeah.." "So." "She left after that." "I guess she can't take a look at me coz she reminds me of him, you know." " Sorry." " Yeah, I didn't know." "No don't be sorry, guys." "That's alright." "Usually, I just make up bullshit story to tell people." "Because I don't want to be seem so pathetic." "By the way, did I tell you what a beautiful family you guys have." "Thank you." "Especially your little princess over there." "Oh man, Sarah what are you doing to this poor kid." "Come here, buddy." "No, we don't wanna be a princess that's not cool." "He got somethings after his dad." "Oh I bet you're enjoying this, aren't you?" "Lets go get you a fireman's hat or something." "Thanks brother." "You got a nice neighborhood." " What's wrong man, are you alright?" " I'm sorry, man." " Sorry, I froze up on you today." " That's bullshit Will, get that out of your mind." "You did exactly what anyone else would have done." "Not you, man." "I mean, you went in there after them like the odds were in your favor." "It ain't the same thing." "Its just different." "Look, Will." "When you came around that corner today, you didn't see me." "You didn't see those guys with the guns." "All you saw is the family you got inside." "I don't have that." "I ain't got that to lose that's the difference." "There is a lesson out of every tragedy." "What's that?" "My father... he was a preacher." "If theres anything my old man ever thought me is that everything happens for a purpose." "Do you believe that?" "Tell me, what's the reason for a 4-year old boy to suffer in agony for 2 years." " Is there a reason for that?" " Look just think about what happened today." "That if things has gone different, then I would be done lying cold on the street right now." "Like it or not it was meant to be." "Well, its easy to say that While you sit there, comfortable with your beer." "Oh come on, man." "Ain't it possible that what happened to you and your family wasn't just random tragic bad luck?" " Maybe there's something greater at stake." " What are you trying to say?" "That what happened today was something holy?" "I don't believe in miracles." "I'm not a saint, bro." "Today, for me and my family." "Today you were." "Alright, its late." "You believe what you believe, I believe what I believe." "Okay that's fair enough." "What?" "What's that look." "You want to scare me Why?" "You want to take me to church." " You read my mind, how about Sunday?" " No." " You don't wanna go?" " I don't." "Come on, man." "I'm gonna get my keys." "Its late." "And you gotta get some sleep." "Yeah?" "Yeah, no problem." "What going on?" "Where?" "I'm on my way." " Hey, what's up?" " So, you sure its her?" "Yeah its her." "You realize what this means, right?" "This is ain't about Weddo." "This is all about your buddy Collin" "Alright, listen." "Do you have any luck tracking that other number on Sonny's cellphone." "Another deadend." "Prepaid phone at a bogus address." "Do me a favor, check that reporter's phone records, see if that same number pops up anywhere." " Do you think it's Colin's?" " Alright, I've gotta go." "I'll get back to you." " What do we got here, Sean?" " It ain't good." " Do you know who it is?" " Yeah.Her name is Stacey." "I inteviewed her yesterday." "I think she might be connected for more possible suspects." "Possible... that would be improbable now, would it?" "Look, I hate to bring this up but we got a call from headquarters." "The heat's being put on them from city hall and being hammered by press about the shooting yesterday." " They got you at the crosshairs." " They want to offer me up." " Kinda look that way." " How much time do I have?" "Tomorrow." " Is there any way around it?" " I don't think so." "Alright.." "Fuck 'em!" "Look, I need your help." "Can you get the forensics to rush the ID's of those guys from the shootout?" " Sean ..." " Come on, Pete." "I will do what I can." " Yeah." " I thought I was the smart one." " Colin called him." " About a dozen times." "Goddamn it." " Why Malcom?" "Why a reporter?" " Yeah.He must got something big." "The guy have something on these guys looking for him." "Or something they don't want to go to the presss." " We got to get him before they do." " Alright, I'm on my way." "Tell me what you know." "You know everyone in this fucking area." "Hey, what's up, cuz?" " Fools, are you lost or something?" " Hey, keep rolling hommie." " Where you get that?" "From a cracker jack box?" " What motherfucker, you want to get a closer look?" "Well, I love too.." "Fucking cops." " What the fuck is going on?" " Who are you?" "Loose them." " Can you recognize me, white boy?" " Yeah, I know who you are." "That's good." "And I guess we gotta cut the chase." "I wanna know what you know." " Are you fucking kidding me?" " Do I look like a humorous motherfucker to you?" "Somebody utchered my family." "Roasted my baby brother alive." "It took from me the only thing good, the only thing pure, I have ever hand in." "We do not know shit." " Wait." "Please... please." " You got this fucking wrong." "This ain't about you, man." " This ain't about you." " What do you mean?" "I know this ain't about Malcolm." "It's not about Malcolm." "It's about Malcolm's job." "Weddo, your brother was in the wrong place at the wrong fucking time, alright." "I understand what your heads at, man." "If I were you I would do the same fucking thing." "But trust me, this ain't the way to handle this." " Yeah?" "Then what is?" " Let us do our jobs." "Weddo, hunting and tracking these people is what we are good at." "We'll find this motherfucker." "He's right." "With us is your best chance to finding these guys before they skip town." "Alright." "We'll let you go away for now, cop." "But know this brother." "I'm gonna be a shadow on your ass, watching and waiting." "One way or another.They're gonna a reckoning on this earth." "Some motherfucker's definitely gotta reap buddy's soul." "You heard me?" "Yeah, I understand." " So we are back where we started from?" " Let me check with Fed's first, if they have any luck with the prints." "Yeah, we're on it." "Will's upstairs on the phone right now." " What did you find out." " Nothing." "Nobody knows anything." "What about yours?" " Forensics identified the burned victim from yesterday." " Yeah, Lewis Cunter." " How did they tie in." " Lewis was Sonny's errand boy." " And what about these guys?" " That's what we are just talking about.Its a strange deal." " All the ID's we found on them... bogus!" " All of them?" "Yeah, but not the usual internet garbage." "...real high quality stuff." "I honestly felt they were the real deal til I ran them." "I want you to take a look at pretty boy over here." "Here's something you might find interesting." "They dug them out of his shoulder." "At first, we thought they're bullet fragments." " So, what is it?" " Shrapnel." "That's what I was figuring..."

"Thank you." "I just need to know if there are no other copies?" "Go fuck yourself." "What's with the language with you?" "You know I got the chance to pick at the last high profile..." "I got to read all about you and your little boy." "Awful!" "Just Awful!" "Are you still struggling with the visiting of the grave thing?" "Coz I actually think I got mystic when I read that part, really." "I'm gonna fucking kill you!" "All of you." "This is a complete waste of time." "I'm gonna go back and see if we had any luck with the other one." " He's waken up." "Nice knife." " Fuck you." "Now that is a cute little boy." "No, really he is." "Or should I say "was"." "This must be an old one." "Taken before he got old, face, teeth wide and his hair fell out." "Before the cancer really started to eat him up." "Did he cry a lot?" "I bet he did, didn't he?" "I bet he cried all night and fucking day." " Yes." " What?" "Yes, he cried all the time." "But you wanna know why I'm so proud of my son." "Coz he never begged for his life." "Not once." "Which is a lot more than I can say for your friend Cole." "Yeah.." "A real fucking tough guy." "He begged for his life." "And pissed himself right before I smoked his bitch ass." "Come on, motherfucker." " Hello?" " Beth." "Sean, is that you?" "Where's Will?" " He is not with you?" " I just came to the door.and the place is a wreck." " What happened to him?" " Don't worry he's fine." " What's going on, Sean?" "There's blood." " Nothing's going on." " Don't you tell me that." "Don't tell me that." " Beth, calm down." "What happened to him?" "Where is he, Sean?" "Beth, listen to me." "You take the kids next door, okay?" "I promise you." "Will is coming home tonight." "What are you going to do, Sean?" "What are you going to do.," "What ever it takes." "Have you ever heard the story of Baba Yaga." "Of course not, why would you." "Where I come from Little Odessa, everyone knows her name." "You see, Baba Yaga was a witch." "She fly around on her broom at night looking for little boys and girls who misbehaved." "When she found them, she'd creep into their rooms... and wrack their knuckles as hard as she could." "She did that because when they wake up7 in the morning and the bruises in their hands" "They would have known she was there." "And they never would have done which was wrong ever again." "You know, after Bosnia." "After I left the agency." "To be honest, I felt kinda lost." "And I could hardly find a job, for myself, you know." "The one job I did get was a night janitor at the city morgue." "My friends thought that was strange, so they decided to call me Baba Yaga." "I suppose they found that humorous." "With me sweeping the floor with my silly little broom." "So I decided to pay them a little visit." "But I didn't wrack them on their knuckles with my silly little broom." "I chopped their hands off..." "You see, my friends only ridiculed me." "You and your friends you're trying to crucify me." "I do not know what you're talking about." "I swear I don't have anything to do with this." "Wait, wait, wait!" "Come on, man." "Stop!" "Please I have a family." " You do?" " Yes, I have a wife, a little boy And a little girl." "Please don't do this." "And you didn't find that important?" "Get Dekker on the phone." "Playtime is over." "I wanna pick up the family." "No!"

"Open your eyes." "Open your fucking eyes!" "I told you this was coming." "Finish him, Sean!" "Finish him!" "Sean, goddamn it!" "Just shoot him!" "Is this him?" "Can you recognize me white boy?" "People say I look like my baby brother, only prettier." "Do you think you're the most ruthless motherfucker on the block?" "Please... this is New Orleans, white boy." "You ain't seen nothing yet."

"I gotta go." "And you gotta go back in there." " What are you afraid of?" " That!" " Chicken shit!" " Yeah, you're right." "Take it easy, partner."
