Lady Castro, have you heard

I just brought in Chanice Bailly.

Who k*lled Jorge?

It was Renee.

You disappeared her once,

Look, if she's not here,
there's no case.

Now, where's your stash?

[ALAN] Swayzee's alibi checks out

And Tom Dolan over at Fall Brook

What is it about this case?

[JACKIE] I think Veronica
stole something from a John.

She traded it to Petey for dr*gs,

and that's what got him k*lled.
