So, look, I get everybody's all jazzed about that list or whatever, and people wanna do the mourning thing. All good, have at it.

What I'm wondering though, is what we got working to find out who helped the dead dude get that way. Still pretty new around here so I don't know what you got rigged up already, but where I'm from something like this happens we mount up before there's a dead guy number two.

[ so that was... kind of a job application. if you tilt your head and squint. and to seal the deal. ]

Wouldn't mind helping out.

People are suggesting the bulls, but look into things your own way.

[ faith isn't exactly a film noir buff, but she is from a neighborhood where the only thing you don't call police is the police. she gets what he means. ]

Yeah, already ahead of you. Me and cops don't really mix-- but from what I keep hearing security's not exactly the same as donut eaters around here.

[dirtyword]

Different badge, maybe. Same MO.

audio;

[stacked]

Couple of them, yeah. I heard the chick in charge is decent people, though.

audio;

[dirtyword]

A bull still has horns and a cop still has a badge. [ Doesn't mean you can trust them, Faith. ]

[stacked]

[ that gets genuine laughter out of faith, husky and a little wry. ]

Trust me, shortstack. Nobody in their right mind's gonna hand me a badge.

audio;

[dirtyword]

....Shortstack?

[ Way to focus on the important part, Brendan. ]

audio;

[stacked]

You like kid better?

audio;

[dirtyword]

Neither, if I'm being honest. [ A beat: ] you don't know me from adam, and that's fine--but take it easy. Security has a way to put you behind the eight ball on things.

audio;

[stacked]

--yeah, because I got any of that. Wanna English that one up for me?

audio;

[dirtyword]

That was English. [ Here we go again. ]

audio;

[stacked]

Yeah, I got that part. Doesn't mean I got what you meant.

[dirtyword]

[ There's a pause as he tries to simplify it. ]

I know if you get those three letters tattooed with your numbers, it's going to be difficult to get people to trust you when it comes to stuff.

audio;

[stacked]

I look like the kind of chick people go ahead and trust to you, anyway?

audio;

[dirtyword]

No.

But you look smarter than a lot of the buffoons running security.

audio;

[stacked]

...never heard that one before.

[ sadly she's being serious not that she has any issues with constantly affirming she's dumb or anything. ]

audio;

[dirtyword]

[ Brendan, however, takes it differently: ]

Never heard what? There a lingo problem?

audio;

[stacked]

Nah, that I look smarter than anybody.

audio;

[dirtyword]

I find that hard to believe.

audio;

[stacked]

Bullshit. Cute, but bullshit.

[ no seriously she... thinks that this is a line. self esteem issues, what what. ]

audio;

[dirtyword]

Alright, your call if you don't want to believe me, but you're no sap and based on this alone, I'd drop a dime on you.

audio;

[stacked]

Starting to wonder if this is what Wes feels like, talking to me.

[ you're weird, kid, but she kind of likes you. ]

audio;

[dirtyword]

Who?

audio;

[stacked]

...just this guy I know. Brit, used to like to say I'm not speaking English.

audio;

[dirtyword]

Huh.

I'm speaking English, though.
