02x16 - g*ns & Roses

Post by bunniefuu »

In the nation's largest city,

the vicious and violent
members of the underworld

are hunted by the detectives

of the Organized Crime Control Bureau.

These are their stories.

Donnelly's running a
crew out of the - .

He's more than an errand
boy for the Marcy K*llers.

I remember your pops.

- Our dads say we're like...
- Yeah, brothers.

My old man would've hated this.

Leave your fellow cops alone.

Nova will now report directly to me.

Second in command of the
entire Marcy organization?

This is more than
what you signed up for.

- How much did we lose?
- At least K.

The disrespect, I can't stand.

- I run this town now.
- Yeah.

- Hey, hey, hey.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[GROANS]

You did good, Stabler.
I think you might be ready.

[TENSE MUSIC]

Come on.



It just feels like betrayal.

I know what I'm doing is right

but I can't shake this feeling...

[SIGHS]

Of betraying these people

even though they're
betraying their oath.

Tell me about this
world of feeling for you.

What lives there?

My father.

What does he have to say about this?

Well not too much, he's
been dead about years,

but... [CHUCKLES]

Sss...

I still hear him loud and clear.

See, he was a cop, and he represents...

[PENSIVE MUSIC]

You know, the old school
way, the cop tradition,

the code.

My father was awarded the Combat Cross.

He took a b*llet to
save another cop's life,

That's who he was. That's what he did.

And he gave me that Combat Cross

when I became a detective.



It's the first time I ever
felt like he was proud of me.

Isn't upholding the
law part of the code?

Yeah. Yeah.

Seems to me, your father would be proud

again.



Do not come down here, Bonnie.

Who is this?

Yo, I'm warning you.

[TENSE MUSIC]



I'm here to pick up Angelica Guzman.

It'll be a while. They're
still processing her.

What are the charges?

Prostitution and disorderly conduct.

You know the DA's not gonna prosecute.

Why didn't you just
call social services?

You can have a seat
over there if you like,

but you can't stand here.

Or you can... you can call me.

How about you do that next time?

Save the city a little money.



Angelica, I'm here to take you home.

Everything is going to be okay.

You're doing the right
thing. Do you hear me?

Will you stay off the streets tonight?

- I've gotta work.
- Just tonight, please.

Here, this will tide you over.

Tomorrow morning I'll pick you up,

I'll take you to my office,
and we'll get to work.

If he knew I was talking to you...

Everything between us is
completely confidential.

I promise you, Angelica.

Come on, I'll walk you to your door.

[LOUD BANG]



[TENSE MUSIC]



Ah, this is weird.

I think I'm gonna miss you.

Oh, that's sweet. What
was his name again?

[LAUGHS] The better we all do our jobs,

the sooner Stabler will be
back here riding your asses.

I upgraded this from when

you were undercover as Eddie Wagner.

I added a feature that
lets Sergeant Bell ping you

when she needs you to respond ASAP.

Okay.

Everyone, I need your attention.

Last night a civil rights
attorney, Bonnie Ellis,

was found m*rder*d in East New York

- along with a young sex worker.
- Bonnie?

I knew her back when I worked in Narco.

She was involved in the
East New York Gangs Truce.

She went on to cofound
the Second Chance Alliance,

a nonprofit organization that works

to help victims of sex trafficking.

So the sex worker was her client?

Angelica Guzman, years old,

got picked up as part of a sting.

Ellis was dropping her
off at her apartment.

And the m*rder w*apon
was found in a dumpster

near the crime scene, a
nine-millimeter handgun

with the serial number scratched off.

Crime scene is working
to recover the number.

So East New York, that's the - .

So is this a task force
case or is this for Stabler?

You know, technically,
he's still on suspension.

Well, it's for both of you

because of a possible
Marcy K*llers connection.

A few hours before Bonnie was k*lled,

she received a call from a burner phone.

It was traced back to

a Hugo Bankole of the Marcy K*llers.

[TENSE MUSIC]



What's wrong with you?

The cops are looking for me.

Why? What happened?

Two women got sh*t last
night on Van Siclen,

and they think I did it.

You have an alibi?

Yeah, I was at my cousin Jamund's place.

Brought him some
electronics for his e-biz.

- So he can vouch for you.
- No, he got a record.

They ain't going to believe him.

One of the marks was a lawyer

coming up in the public
defender's office,

and that ain't a good look for the cops.

You know they gonna have
to pin it on somebody.

You should get out of here.



Hey.

Hey, how you doing? Stabler.

Don't feel bad. They
don't trust new guys here.

I don't feel bad. I got thick skin.

So you got transferred here?

It would seem so.

Kind of a downgrade.

They took my g*n too.

- Tough break.
- Yup.

You play cards?

Yeah, - .

See you at McCutcheon's.

I'll see you there.

Bonnie spent a year
getting to know Angelica.

She worked really
hard to gain her trust,

providing legal counsel,

connecting her with social services.

Do you know if Angelica
was being trafficked?

I honestly don't know, but these women,

they're terrified to talk about that.

Where'd she pick up her clients?

Did she have a territory?

We work separate cases,

but I know some of the women
that worked with Bonnie,

they walk the track at Hunts Point.

Did Bonnie have any dealings
with the Marcy K*llers?

I've heard the name, but
aren't they a drug g*ng?

Wait, you're saying you
haven't come across them

in connection with sex trafficking?

No, but I don't know every g*ng
in New York that traffics women.

Detective Stabler.

Captain Darnell, nice to meet you, sir.

I'm gonna be very straight with you.

I don't want you here.

You were thrust on me,
and I don't like it,

but it wasn't my choice.

Well, I appreciate your honesty.

Just shut up and let me talk.

I don't like scandal,
and I hate politics.

So whatever happened between
you and your former sergeant,

I don't give a damn.

You just keep your head
down and stay out of trouble

or I will make sure

that your suspension
becomes an expulsion.

Now in the meantime,

unless and until IAB
restores your full privileges,

you're on desk duty.

Make sure your handwriting's legible.

Copy that, sir.



- Hey.
- Hey.

- Look at you.
- Yeah, look at me.

Stuck in your little house-mouse gig.

- Mm.
- Please don't hate me.

Why would I hate you?

'Cause I'm the one that
put in the good word

that got you transferred
to this hellhole.

Well, I hate you.

Look, truth of the matter is

it wouldn't have mattered
where they sent me,

a cop without a g*n is dead weight.

Yeah. Come on, let's go for a ride.

Yeah, I don't think that's a good idea.

I was threatened with
expulsion by Darnell.

[SCOFFS] Forget about Darnell.

He's a jackass. Let's go.

Come on.

Let's roll.

Turning the wrong way
down a one-way street

adds the element of surprise.

[HORN HONKS]

The more people you stop,

more likely you are to find something.

Stop and frisk, I think
is what they call it.

Yeah. [CHUCKLES]

And you know, if you're in a patrol car,

you just pull over, pop the door,

chase whoever runs.

So the dr*gs.

Once you get them, what
do you do with them?

Well, Marcy K*llers
were our main buyers,

but now that Webb's dealing
directly with the source,

he's not interested in the
street level stuff anymore.

- But that's fine, that's cool.
- Mm.

We still got plenty of buyers.

- Like, see that kid over there?
- Yeah.

years old, hard as nails.

He's got ins with the Trinitarios

and he's one of our CI's,

so he lets us know who's carrying

and we can jack their dr*gs.

- You trust him not to talk?
- Believe me, I got enough

to put him away for ten lifetimes.

He ain't talking.

How about them? Who they work for?

No idea.

You don't run girls?

Hey, I got daughters.

Marcy K*llers run girls?

What is this, an interrogation?

[TENSE MUSIC]

No, I'm trying to get a lay of the land.

I'm looking for opportunities.
I just don't want to step on

anybody's toes like the Marcy K*llers.

Right.

Do me a favor, okay?

We're working together now, use this.

You don't want anybody to be
able to ID you off your shield.

Yeah.

Tomorrow night I'll take
you out for another ride

and show you how we
really roll out here.

Hugo didn't do it.

So he should have no problem coming in

and telling me that himself.

You know that's not gonna happen.

He has good reason not
to trust the police.

And we have good reason to consider him

- a person of interest.
- What reason?

Is Hugo running girls
for the Marcy K*llers?

No.

Mr. Webb doesn't allow sex trafficking.

It goes against
everything he believes in.

Oh, so now Preston Webb
is a man of high principle.

I'm telling you,

the Marcy K*llers don't run girls.

Then why did Hugo
contact one of the victims

a couple hours before she got sh*t?

I don't know.

Look...

Nova, you know I trust your judgement,

but sometimes I worry that
you've been undercover so long

that you can't see these
people for what they truly are.

These people?

You starting to sound just like them.

What's that supposed to mean?

That maybe you've been a cop so long,

you only see things in black and white.

You will not insult the
integrity of what I do.

Hard evidence is all we have to go on,

and right now the evidence is strong.



Hey, looking for a girl named Tina.

Anybody else smell bacon?

Piss off.

There she is. Pull up.

Tina, get in the car.
I need to talk to you.

Get lost.

For Christ's sake,
Tina, I'm your brother.

Just give me five minutes.

Yeah, her name's Angelica.

Angel, we call her. Why?

She was k*lled Saturday
night outside her apartment.

We need to know who ran her.
Was she part of a network?

Uh... no. Angel worked for herself.

Look, Tina, if you're
protecting someone...

Who would I protect?

I'm telling you, she was my friend.

She was self-employed.

What about customers?

Does she have any regulars?

Anyone she had a special
relationship with?

I don't know if you'd
call it special, but yeah.

There was this one guy. He
used to come around a lot.

He drove a Lincoln SUV

and had a "Baby On
Board" sticker on back.

Can you describe him for us?

White, brown hair, had a nasty burn scar

on the side of his face
shaped like Florida with a

nasty red ring around the
edge. Look, I gotta go.

Hey, you got a phone these days?

Yeah.

Well, let me get the number

in case I need to ask
you more questions.

You staying warm?

If you mean, am I
clean? Yeah, I'm clean.

I promise.



Where's Santos?

We'll pick him up on the way.

There's our guy.

Every week, exact same story.

Arrives at : p.m.
sharp, sells the stuff,

back outside by : .
Kid runs like a gold Rolex.

Okay, showtime. Hang
on to your hat, brother.



Your hands... hey, your
hands, let me see them.

Hey, what's in the bag?

What the hell, man? You
got a reason to stop us?

Come on. You got no warrant.

Yeah, I don't like your
face. How's that for a reason?

You know what? Cuff him.

- Let's go.
- Yo!

- Cuff him.
- You can't search us.

- Hey, hey, quiet.
- Yo.

Shut your mouth.

You ain't got a warrant.
You can't search us.

Get your hands on the hood.

What's your name?

Stix.

Stix ain't a name. What
does your mother call you?

Aaron.

All right, Aaron, you
seem like a nice kid,

so I'm gonna keep it with you.

Um, we're working with the FBI,

and our wiretap caught
wind of your coke deal.

So we know who you're working with

and we can prove it.

Now tell me who you got the stuff from,

and I'll let you go.

I ain't talking.

All right.

You know what civil forfeiture is?

Hmm?

It's a law that allows us

to seize the property of
people who do bad things,

and you've been doing
some very bad things.

And I can't imagine you have
a lot that we'd want to seize,

but your mom probably does.

You get behind bars,
we're coming for her.

Her house, cash, end of the month,

she's out on the street,
no money, no place to live.

I don't know, Stix, you
want that on your head?



[PHONE CHIMES]

Cops grabbed Stix.

We got to hurry up
and clear out of here.

Come on.

Hurry it up.

[SPEAKS LANGUAGE]

[SIREN WAILING]

Hey, you don't have a piece.

No, I'm good. I got your back.

- Yeah? Okay.
- Yeah.

Hit it, Santos.



Okay.

Looks like someone tipped them off.

All right, guys, bag
up what's left, okay?

- Hey, Stabler.
- Yeah.

Come here. [CHUCKLES]

Look at this.

- [GASPS]
- Oh, yeah.

Jackpot.

There's gotta be, like,
grand worth in here.

Yup.

You, my friend, are my lucky charm.

Bag it up. All right, hurry up.

I'm gonna go check the
rest of the place, okay?

Let him go, let him go. [GROANS]

- Call a bus.
- What about...

Call the bus, just call the bus now.

sh*ts fired.

I need a bus at
Nostrand Avenue, officer down.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Aw, I didn't know you felt that way.

I was gonna get you a whiskey,

but the gift shop doesn't
have a liquor license, so.

How's your flesh wound?

It's all right.

The doctor said if it
hadn't nicked my vest...

could've been a whole different story.

The nurse just told me

they took it out with their fingers

and just patched you up
with a Band-Aid or two.

Uh-huh, I got stitches.

- How many?
- .

Okay, and I was on the
table for, like, two hours.

Probably 'cause you wouldn't shut up.

[CHUCKLES] Don't make
me laugh, it hurts.

Yeah.

I'm here because I wanted
to say thank you, man.

All right, don't make it weird.

I like it better when
you were busting my chops.

You saved my life.

So we're even, right?

Now close the door.
Put those over there.

So...

Obviously, things went
kind of sideways last night.

I'll say, yeah.

And the Sarge came by this morning

and was asking a lot of questions.

You guys... that was a great move,

getting rid of the
g*ns before EMS arrived.

And there's no witnesses 'cause
we let the sh**t get away.

But I don't think this thing's
gonna blow over that easy.

- No, neither do I.
- Right.

So we gotta get rid of those g*ns ASAP.

Yeah.

So there's a cop in
the - named Van Aller.

I usually move the
g*ns together with him.

- Van Aller, all right.
- All right?

Uh, he's been acting a
little skittish lately.

I want you to ride with
him and keep an eye on him.

You up for that?

Anything you need, brother.

Okay.

Do me a favor, get a
vase for those flowers.

Sure. Here, help me up.

[GROANS]

[LAUGHS] So funny.

There's Angelica.

And that's the car
Maldonado's sister described.

Run the plates.

It's registered to a
Leon Popov of Canarsie.

Mm, pick him up, bring
him in for questioning.

Hey, Jet, I need you to look up a cop

by the name of Van Aller.

He and I are meeting up today
to sell the g*ns that we stole.

- Matthew Van Aller?
- Yes.

Third grade detective
from Staten Island,

two kids, divorced.

- Record?
- Clean.

The A*F trace report came back on

the Bonnie Ellis m*rder w*apon.

One of our CIs sold it a year ago.

- Who'd he sell it to?
- Hugo Bankole.

According to Donnelly,

the Marcy K*llers are not
involved in sex trafficking.

Nova said the same thing.

Well, if they weren't
trafficking Angelica,

what was the motive for the murders?

Is it possible Bankole
was acting on his own?

Jet, put a BOLO and a want
card out on Hugo Bankole.

I'll call Nova.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Hey!

I spoke with Force Investigations.

You want to tell me why
you were out playing cowboy

with Donnelly when you're
supposed to be on suspension?

- Look, Captain, I understand.
I was just trying to help.

You just don't get it.

I'm recommending that IAB
pursue charges in termination.

We know what you did for Donnelly.

Welcome to the - .



- Leon Popov.
- Why am I here?

Angelica Guzman, you know her?

I never seen her before in my life.

This is your car?

Yeah.

This is Angelica getting into your car.

This coming back to you?

Yeah, okay. I recognize her now.

I pick her up sometimes.

When's the last time you saw her?

- I can't remember.
- Why don't you try?

End of last week.

Can you describe that interaction?

She got in my car,

we screwed around, she got out.

So fine me or whatever.

Oh, you're looking at
much more than a fine.

Angelica Guzman was found
m*rder*d three nights ago,

and right now, you're a suspect.



Hey, where's Stabler?

He's at the - , I think.

Okay, we got to get
in touch with him now.

- Why?
- Popov never met Angelica.

He let his neighbor use his
car to make runs to Hunts Point.

Says the guy threatened to
hurt him if he told anyone.

What does that have to do with Stabler?

- Popov's neighbor, he's cop.
- Okay.


Name's Van Aller.

Van Aller, that's who Stabler's
meeting this afternoon.

Come on, Stabler, pick up.

Damn it.



Get in.

Hey. How you doing?

- Elliot Stabler.
- Matthew Van Aller.

Hey, nice to meet you.

[PHONE RINGS]

Bell.

I'm gonna tell you where
Hugo is because that's my job.

I swear you're wrong about him.

What do you want?

We're looking for your
nephew, Hugo Bankole.

- Hugo not here.
- We have a warrant, ma'am.

I already told you, he's not here.

Is there anyone else in this house?

- No.
- Stay with her.



Jet.

Hugo Bankole, you are under arrest.

Now get your ass out that mattress.

Donnelly makes us keep a list

of all the serial numbers
in case we ever need them.

I don't know why.

You want help with that?

[CHUCKLES] No, it's just nerve damage.

- Oh.
- [CLEARS THROAT]

I'm not the guy who usually
deals with the buyers.

I'll take the lead on that if you want.

No, they don't know your face.

They won't trust you. It's
better if you stay here.

- Cool.
- All right.

Add this to the bag, you mind?

Can you throw this in the glove?

- Mm-hmm.
- Thanks.

[TENSE MUSIC]



I'm gonna ask you again.

How do you know Bonnie Ellis?

We were friends.

Came up through the Gangs Truce.

I was helping her,

trying to bring peace on these streets.

Who else knows this?

Do you have anybody
who can vouch for you?

No, I never told anybody.

- Preston Webb?
- Who that?

[SIGHS]

That's your piece.

It was found in a dumpster
near the crime scene.

The ballistics matched

the b*ll*ts that were
in the victim's bodies.

- They setting me up.
- Oh, so it is your g*n.

It used to be. A cop took it off me

during a stop and frisk last year.

Who's the cop?

How do I know you not in with him?

Because I'm not.

[SCOFFS]

Why did you call Bonnie Ellis
the night she was m*rder*d?

- To warn her.
- About what?

This cop I'm telling you about,

the one that took my g*n,

he was working with a
g*ng that runs prostitutes.

All right, he gave the protection

in exchange for free sex
with his favorite girl.

Angelica Guzman.

Bonnie was helping her,

trying to bring a case against the cop.

And that's why he k*lled her.

Hugo, I believe what you're telling me,

but all the evidence
points straight to you.

So if you don't want to
take the fall for this,

you need to tell me that cop's name.

[PHONE BUZZES]

- Hey.
- Hugo said Van Aller

took his g*n during a stop and frisk.

He used that g*n to
k*ll Bonnie and Angelica,

and now he's trying to
pin the murders on Hugo.

If that's true, I should have
the proof of it right here.

Where's Van Aller now?

I got eyes on him.

I gotta go.



- Good?
- All good.

[PHONE RINGING]

This is Van Aller.

Okay. No, no, no idea.

Uh, but I'll give them a call.

Thanks for letting me know.

Everything all right?

Yeah. Let's get out of here.



Come in for a drink?

No, I gotta take off.

We don't know each other, Van Aller,

and I'm not trying to overstep here.

You know, if you got something
you want to get off your chest,

something on your mind, you
know, you can talk to me.

How do I know I can trust you?

I'm your brother.

Nobody can find out about...
you can't... you can't...

you can't tell Donnelly.

No, no, no, just
between you and me, man.

Between you and me. What's going on?

That call I just got...

it was Darnell.

He said a couple IAB officers

came by the precinct looking for me.

Okay.

Look, I've been in front of
IAB more than a few times.

So tell me what's up,

and I'll let you know
what you can and can't say.

Those two women that got gunned down

the other night on Van Siclen.

Uh, the lawyer and her client, right?

The lawyer, she was...

She was causing trouble.

What do you mean, trouble?

She was asking a lot of questions.

It... I acted on my own,

but she found out about the Brotherhood.

If IAB, they start nosing around,

they pull one thread,

and the whole thing comes undone.

[SIGHS]

And Donnelly doesn't know about this?

No, no, if he found out...

I get you, I get you. All right, look...

All right, look, I got
you here, all right?

But let's go inside, let's have a drink,

we'll strategize, and
when we come out of there,

you'll know what to do and what to say.

You'll figure out what to do.

- Yeah, yeah, sure.
- All right?

- Yeah, sure.
- Come on.

- You know what, just...
- What?

Give me a minute. I gotta call my kids.

Okay.



Hey, Mr. Popular, told
you they'd come around.

Hey, well, thanks for
greasing the wheels for me.

So what you drinking?

Whatever they got on
tap. Whatever you got.

Danny, I got this one.

Everything okay?

Hmm? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Everything's cool. Put it on my tab.

I'm gonna be back in a minute.

- Next drink's on me.
- All right.

Hey, Van Aller.



You really think Donnelly

didn't know about Van
Aller and Angelica?

Look, the way he was acting...

I mean, Van Aller was
scared out of his mind

that Donnelly would find out.

And considering what he did,

you know, that was a
dying man's confession.

At that point there's
no reason for him to lie.

Okay.

I passed on what I got from Hugo to SVU.

This is the cash from the g*n sale

and the log book that
you got off of Van Aller.

I entered it into evidence.

Thanks.

Stabler.

You good?

Yeah, why?

Just checking.

[TENSE MUSIC]

So this dirty cop framed you?

That's what you telling me?

I'm telling you, the
Brotherhood is out of hand.

They think they can
get away with anything.

The two-faced Brotherhood
does not concern me.

What concerns me is
my trusted executives

keeping secrets and telling lies.

You're right.

I should've told you about
my friendship with the lawyer,

but I meant no disrespect.

Am I looking at a Judas?

That is what I have to ask myself.

I'll talk to him.

Yeah, you've done enough.

I only told him the cops picked you up

because I knew he'd find out.

It was better that it came from me.

Yeah, and I'm starting
to see how that works.



I told you he was innocent.

We did what we had to do,

and we released him without
pressing any charges.

Yeah, but Webb doesn't trust him now,

and now he's starting not to trust me.

You'll win him back, I know you will.

One of the reasons we go undercover

is to understand the psyche

of the criminals we're investigating,

and sometimes, without
even realizing it,

our worlds begin to blur.

I was out of line before.

I thought you were trying to...

What? Profiling Hugo?

I was trying to build a case

based on the evidence
that was in front of me.

Nova, I was doing my job.

And you're right, I am one of them,

but so are you.

Don't forget that.

I won't.

All right.

I care about you, girlfriend.

Don't forget that, either.

Likewise.

It was one night Van Aller comes in

with this chick in handcuffs, right?

This chick can't be more than .

I'm like, "What the
hell is wrong with you?

What you got cuffs
on a little girl for?"

Van Aller turns around,

his entire back is soaked in blood.

This little nasty bitch slashed him.

- [GROANS AND LAUGHTER]
- That's my kind of girl.

Well, look who the cat dragged in.

ALL: Hey!

All right.

The return of the conquering hero.

- All right.
- Hey.

Takes more than a couple
b*ll*ts to put me down, right?

- Let me buy you a drink, huh?
- Thanks, guys.

Two whiskeys, neat. You look good.

Thanks. You look like hell.

- You all right?
- Eh.

Thanks.

So give the highlights.
Tell me what went on.

I have no idea, man. I mean...

What?

I'm still trying to figure it out.

You know, he was just
shaky all night, on edge.

But the sale went down without a hitch.

And so what... and when
he dropped you off here,

and he didn't say
anything? I mean, anything?

No, no. You know, I said, "come on in.

Let me buy you a drink."

He's like, "Oh, you
know, give me a minute."

So I'm in here and I'm telling you,

I was in here less than a minute

and I'm not feeling right, right?

So I go out to check on him.

Boom. Right in front of me.

I, uh, I got this off of him
before the paramedics arrived.

That is great, Stabler.

Oh, man, that's even better.

[SIGHS]

Jackpot. Thank you, my friend.

You're saving my ass.

- No, no that's...
- No, no.

- Take it, brother.
- No.

You deserve it, okay?

You know what, Van Aller wasn't cut out

for this kind of work,
anyways. You know what I mean?

This kind of operation,

you gotta have men with cojones.

You know, backbone.

Men like our dads, right?

- Hmm.
- Yeah.

You know, there was
a story about your dad

that was famous in my house growing up.

Hmm.

So your dad and his partner, right?

They're cleaning house, no warrants,

and they get ambushed
by this hothead kid

who's unarmed, right?

So your dad's partner
spooks, sh**t the kid.

- Dead?
- Dead.

Dead, right? So now a major screw up.

They gotta make it look,

you know, they justified the sh**ting.

So your dad searches
the house, finds a g*n,

has his partner sh**t him in the leg

to make it look like
Joe was defending him.

- [CHUCKLES]
- Okay?

All right, you want
to talk about cojones?

So Joe Stabler got a damn Combat Cross

for taking that b*llet.

You want to talk about loyalty?

You want to talk about brotherhood?

I mean... [SCOFFS]

We're just like our dads.



Must be your lucky day.

Not only couldn't I fire you,

the powers that be deemed it
time to return this to you.

It's pretty obvious you
got friends in high places.

But they're the wrong kind of friends.

They're the kind that'll have your back

just long enough to s*ab you in it.
