Hello…Father. Nice of you to stop by.
Well, of course. Just checking on my boy. How are you, sonny-boy?
Good, I suppose. You rarely check up on me. Please don’t tell me there’s another job I have to do.

Of course not, Alex. I was just curious if you were going to be home for dinner. Your dad is going to join us as well.

“Hullo, sir. Wha’ brin’s ya m’way?”
“Oh, I’ve seen you lurking about once or twice. Don’t play coy, you know precisely who I am and you’re going to keep my secret for me. Understand? Besides no soul would believe that a man who shot himself is alive.”
“Lurkin’? Why James Moriar’y tha’s a ‘arsh choice o’ words. Why should I keep yar secre’? Wha’s in it for me? People will believe wha’ they wan’, sir. Tellin’ or no. Modern medical treamen’ is amazin’, aye?”

“Silly girl- you get to live. That’s the deal. Do you honestly think I would be without protection? You’re no longer a part of law enforcement so I don’t see you as holding much sway on other’s opinions. It’s a spectacular deal given that I can’t make too many waves while I lie low. Although…it has been a while since I’ve heard someone scream.”

“God yes, some aspirin would be lovely. Some idiot must be new and not know who’s car they’ve stolen. Be a dear and take care of it later. It has the tracking device activated, obviously.”
“Dealing with the amateurs now? That’s a new one. But I’m right on it, sir.”

“Be sure they know my name. I want them to tell their friends, so I’m sorry, but cut this one loose….after you’ve cut off something of his. Perhaps a few fingers? Whatever you deem necessary.”

“Something you need, Boss?”

I thought you hated me. I’d prefer your honesty.
