Previously on Crash - Ben Cendars.
- I know who you are.
Anthony Adams.
So, you've driven anybody before? Not professionally, but sure I can handle it.

What are you doing here? I've been getting myself ready for you.
- In our fucking bedroom? - No, sweetie.
Get the fuck out of my house! Hi, Jules.
Give your father a hug.
I don't know what kind of shit is between you and Ben, but i really believe he's turning over a new leaf.
Maybe I'm not as bad as you like to make me out to be.
No, you're right Dad.
I had a great childhood.
Your fucking girlfriend took out 5 credit cards in my name all of which have been maxed out and drained 20G from our savings account.

It's always a chance for a second act.
Even a third or forth for a crazy mother fucker like you.
You're Ben Cendars.
- You Set The Scene When The Music's Over by The Doors This fucking city never changes.
I told you to search every nuke and cranny.
You had 8 month to do it.

C'mon man, get your ass up.
We got work to do.
Can i make you another? Yep, I'll have another.
No olives this time.
No, not finished.
Company is operating in a challenging And volatile environment.
Did ESPN confirm for an one on one after the announcement? Yes, and the share holders have been calling all morning.
I have a video conference scheduled for 10:30 a.
m.
Fine.
10:30 is fine.
God, God damnit, it hurts like a lot.
God.
It hurts so bad I can't find the appropriate simile.
Why am I doing an interview? I can't even open my damn mouth.
Dental pain sucks.
What can I do to help? You want to take a break? No, no, no.
Let's finish the statement.
Okay.
"In the meantime I am confident that B.
W.
E.
will prosper, despite the somewhat disquieting results.
" - Who's doing the ESPN interview? - Seth.
I really don't want to be annoying, but, again, the board of directors is extremely concerned.
It's your job to be annoying, Andrea.
Don't apologize for it.
I think I will tell the board and the shareholders the truth.
- Really? - Shares of B.
W.
E are down 32% since the beginning of the year.
That we lost $45 million in the last quarter alone and that I have weathered far worse storms in the past and they should just all calm the fuck down.
What do I do about the name of the team? I don't have one yet.
- Yeah.
- My gums.
You know, Seth, maybe we should postpone the announcement until you're feeling better.
No, no.
We break ground in three months.
I'm announcing that today.
I need water.
- How many Vicodin have you taken today? - I don't need questions.
I do need a dentist in here right away or I won't be able to speak on camera.
All right.
I'll take care of it.
My stadium.
It's a thing of beauty, huh, Andrea? Los Angeles may just make me a saint.
I cannot believe she would do this.
Baby, slow down.
Come look at this.
There's a sloth on tv.
They move in slow-mo.
It looks like a special effect.
But it's not.
And it's the same name as the lord of lethargy.
Can you help me for God's sake?! Baby.
I looked where I It looks like a big wallet Okay? Inside a black hanging bag.
Did I mention you shouldn't have let this girl move in? I never trusted her.
She had lying eyes.
That bitch.
Well, she only moved because you tried to fuck her.
Remember? She's a bitch and a liar.
Now you're shocked that she's a thief? Fuck, Jimmy.
- Jimmy! - I'm looking, honey.
I'm looking.
You know.
There's this thing in America, that we have called banks.
Yeah, and they never go broke or steal your money.
You've got to get rid of this gypsy paranoia thing.
It really isn't healthy.
Didn't I tell you to give it to me and I'd double it? Yeah, you're so good with money.
Sarcasm you know it doesn't become you, baby.
Oh, shit.
I am so sorry.
Come here.
That's $7.
000, baby.
Oh, it's okay, honey.
It's only money.
I'll make it all back for you.

Let's go get some breakfast.
Come on.

Wannabe donuts for a wannabe cop.
You assholes! I see what you did! - You, stop them.
- Why? What happened? The defected my hotdog case.
They painted testicles all over it.
They're teenagers.
What do you expect? Come on.
Don't just stand there! Do something! Stop! Guys did the You are just going to let them get away, huh? - I'm calling the real cops.
- Hey.
Listen, man.
You seriously think LAPD gives a shit? - Fuck.
- Huh? Come on.
It's minor vandalism.
It's not worth the paperwork.
They've got no interest.
Believe me.
You got some towels? A little Windex? Come on.
I'll help you wipe the balls of the hotdog case.
- Shit.
- Want a donut? - Fuck you.
- Exactly.
They're still here? Jesus.
Okay.
One bottle of glue.
$8.
95.
There you go.
Thanks for stopping by, boys.
Spend 20 minutes in here making up their wish list and then they just go home and buy it online.
Why are you surprised? You know they where just looky-loos.
Business better pick up because we can't go on like this.
Oh, stop worrying so much.
Just watch things will turn themselves around.
- The economy always bounces back.
- This place is dying.
I mean, Stargate video shut down and they've been here for, what, 20 years.
Yeah, but they had no inventory.
We are not going anywhere.
I do the books every month, mom.
I know, The shit that we're in.
Watch your mouth and the store.
I'll be right back.
- You're not gonna go have another cigarette.
- You're not the boss of me.
- Mom.
- Bo, stop worrying so much.
This is a seriously infected abscess, Mr.
Blanchard.
I need you to come to my office so we can get this taken care of.
Numb it.
I have to go on camera today.
- Okay, but I think you'd really be much - Numb the fucking tooth please.
"Sports Illustrated" just came up with their cover line.
"After 15 years, visionary brings football back to Los Angeles.
" And here is the photo they're going with.
- Ah.
- Please, Mr.
Blanchard.
I knew you'd like that.
They should've used the one without the jacket.
I think you look great.
- Rinse and spit, please.
- Okay.
What? What is it? Councilman Rizzario wants to meet with you.
Today.
Son of a bitch.
He's the only moron in all of LA who doesn't want a football stadium.
What is it now? The unions again? Tell him I'm not available.
He's filing a lawsuit on behalf of his constituents.
Want to cancel the press conference? Hooper, you've always got that surprised look on your face after I give you a cut, like you're shocked at my performance or some thing.
I am the master, Hooper.
How many times I got to tell you this? Every time I get a cut, I guess.
I've been telling my nephew, Anthony to watch and learn, listen and educate.
There's a big set of shoes over there he could fill if he just paid attention to what unfolds here on a daily basis.
Yo, any chance I could just sweep the nappiness of the floor and get my ass home? You see? That's what I'm talking about right there.
There it is Attitude.
All wrong.
The Muhammad Ali of tonsorial arts is willing to train you and you shoo him away.
Well, uncle, do me a favor: just call yourself a barber, please.
Look, you ain't writing sonnets.
Hair grows, you cut it.
$12 later, hooper's out the front door thinking about who knows what.
Waffles and pussy.
What's all I ever really think about.
- Thank you.
- And for your information.
Don't nobody like to be called "barbers" any more At lest not the real professionals.
An old man.
That's what you are.
Ben.
Hey.
It's.
Uh it's been a while.
Hello, Anthony, Roger.
Ben.
We heard about what happened.
- I tried to send my condolences.
- Oh, I appreciate that.
Roger, do you mind if I borrow Anthony for a few minutes? No, no.
Take all the time you need.
The fool don't listen to me no how.
And I'm truly sorry for your loss, Ben.
Thank you.
Won't be long.
You doing okay, Ben? My daughter was murdered, Anthony.
How do you think I'm doing? The good news is I finally did it.
I cleaned up.
I'm off drugs.
Hey, and I'm saner than ever.
I have not talked to my dick in over eight months.
So How have you been? Oh, you know.
Stuck in the mud, man.
Wasting days.
- But what brings you here? - Why, I have a job for you Just take a couple of days.
It's nothing crazy.
I I can't do it alone, Anthony.
I need a friend to help me.
- You understand why I'm hesitant, right? - Of course I do.
I wouldn't be here if I didn't really need you.
Trust me.
I I have no interest in messing up your life, Anthony.
I just, uh I need this favor.
Please, two or three days.
That's all I'm asking.
All right.
What the fuck, man.
But shit gets weird.
I'm out.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
Baby, I can't watch you like this.
It's breaking my heart.
It's okay.
I'm sorry.
I've got a good news for you.
I've got a fat check on the line I'm gonna make it all back for us.
How are you going to get into a game, Jimmy? You have money? no.
Larry owes me, I'll get it from him.
Stop worrying.
- Larry works in a car wash.
- He said he had money.
That he found them between the seats of a van.
You find all sorts of shit in cars.
So he called you and told you he had money.
Why you hating him? He's a good guy.
You son of a bitch.
What? What are you accusing me for? You son of a you fucking Hey, why are you hitting Hey, why are you hitting me? - Give it to me.
- Give you what? What do you want? The keys? You want the keys? - Give me my money.
- Your money? You're accusing me of stealing your money? Baby, no bullshit, the look you're giving me right now is unsettling.
Jimmy, I'm gonna count.
When I'll get to three, I'm going right for your balls.
One.
.
You know how much you're hurting me right now? Two This is your last chance, Inez.
Apologize and I'll forget it.
- Three.
- Hey, No! Hey, hey, hey! Not the balls.
Not the balls! Everything but the balls! Jesus, you're fucking crazy, man.
Here.
Get out of my car.
Don't you wanna know why i took it? C'mon,I was gonna double the money and surprise you.
I take you 7000 grand, turn in 14, next time you look in your black bag you've got 10, not 7.
Everybody wins.
Get out of my car.
I want you to remember this moment, Inez.
Okay, go! Yeah, go, go, go, go.
Just go ahead and leave me.
Don't think twice about it! Get out of here! "That's right", said Clever Christine.
"We really can't do anything.
" Okay, everyone.
Open your eyes.
"Ah, you're so Clever Christine", Lee shouts.
And as the spaceship lifts off, Clever Christine tells her friend they really can't do anything.
As long as they're together.
The End.
" Thank you.
- Councilman Rizzario, how are you? - Good.
My assistant Andrea Schiller will be joining us.
She take great notes.
Look, Blanchard, I'm gonna save us a little time and a whole lot of misery.
Fine.
Cut to the chase.
We both know this football stadium does only one thing Make the rich richer.
If that's your basis for this lawsuit, we've already made provisions.
Anyone that has to move because of stadium construction is being well-compensated.
Yeah? What about the residents that remain behind? What is a football stadium going to do for them? Set a meeting with anyone who will listen, and I will explain how that stadium complex, is not only going to revitalize the entire neighborhood, but also generate billions of dollars for this city.
Sounds good in press release, but we both know this football team ain't gonna do a damn thing for these people.
- Just look at the Staples Center.
- Oh, come on.
Have you taken a tour around Chavez ravine? Do you people even know where temple street starts? You don't know shit, Rizzario.
I used to work summers unloading trucks for the barato trabajadores.
No shit? My uncle Bobby had an export business on east 6th.
He died last year.
And when I stood in our lady of Guadalupe in east L.
A.
, I didn't feel any different there than I would've felt at Saint Luke's or Saint Alban's, because I was taught that people are people, and those who work the hardest are those who earn your respect.
Councilman Rizzario Hector, the people of Los Angeles want a football team and I intend to give it to them.
So bring on your lawsuit, whoever the fuck you want, and I will prove my stadium will employ more people faster than your opposition research can calculate.
Are you with me? I hope so, this thing works, you will be the fucking mayor.
Thanks for stopping by, Hector.
So no uncle Bobby, right? Hey.
Will you? Girl's not coming.
Maybe because she said tomorrow night.
If she doesn't show, you don't get paid for her.
When is the last time I said I had a new girl and she didn't show? I don't trust girls travelling by bus.
They all think they're Marilyn Monroe riding on a fucking greyhound.
If she shows, she won't last a week.
Shauna, do I look like I hang at the bus station? Hey, baby.
Hey, shauna, you've got to talk to your door monkey outside.
He actually asked to see my membership card.
He hassles any of my clients and you're both on the street.
Ungrateful people.
Big spending center.
Okay, I should've asked before borrowing your money.
I know that.
You're unbelievable.
I have this whale on the line.
He thinks he's jesus christ with a pool cue.
Two drinks, he plays like Mother Teresa.
And last night I did something that you're gonna think is probably pretty stupid.
I had my stake almost 10 grand I'm heading home and I bump into this cat that I used to run with.
He tells me his mother just died, and he can't even afford to bury the woman.
- So I feel bad for him - Jimmy.
You think I can't tell when you're lying? Wha fine.
I lost everything in the last hand.
Trip kings.
No way this guy makes his straight.
Was that so hard? Now get out.
God, my ego.
I should've seen the straight.
It was all over his face.
Then I pictured what that money could do for us.
When I lost I couldn't tell you.
I was ashamed.
So you took my money.
And I didn't just lose my 10 grand.
I took out a marker for another 10.
What? This is not a nice man.
I've got till the end of the week to pay up.
I was telling the truth about the whale.
Look, I'm in and out at cards, but you've seen me play pool.
Is there anybody better? I just I need the stake, and I can take him and make it all back.
Jimmy, this is everything I have.
You get the 10 you need and you pull out.
You have my word.
When's the game? Tomorrow night, but I've got to flash the cash today.
Fuck.
Don't.
Don't.
you've got to get on top of the ball.
Your pitching arm it's too low.
You've got to get your elbow above your shoulder.
- I don't think so, man.
- I'll show you.
Give me the ball.
Give me the ball.
Who are you? Look, your fastball's got nice pop, but your mechanics could use a little tweaking.
This is what you're doing.
Watch my arm.
You see how low it stays? - Yeah.
- All right.
Now this is what it should look like.
See how high the angle is as it comes over my body? Fine.
Now you give it a try.
There you go.
How'd that feel? Good.
All right.
Now try it again.
And remember keep that arm up and in front of you.
Nice.
I'm liking it.
- You throw anything else? - I've been working on a curveball.
All right.
Show me.
Let's see it.
What are we doing? We're packing up her house.
Ben, there are people who do this type of thing.
I'm not paying you for your opinion.
Let's go.
Once you sign, Mr.
Battaglia, I'll file with the courts today and you two can move on about your lives.
Thank you, Kenny.
This process could've been a lot more difficult, especially on the kids.
You've been really great throughout this whole thing.
You mind giving us a moment? Not at all.
Look, I've to figure out a way to apologize for everything that I did to you.
Kenny, don't.
Please.
Hear me out, will you? That's all I ask.
Man, this divorce, signing those papers, probably the best thing that could've happened for us, right? - Yeah.
- Marks the end of that chapter, you know? But, Amy, I want to move into the next chapter together.
You and me A brand new beginning.
I now know what kind of husband I want to be, what kind of father I want the kids to have, amy, this is my promise to you.
And if you give me a second chance, I won't let you down.
Maybe one day you'll want to marry me all over again.
Hey.
I can't believe this is happening.
I know.
I know.
I mean, here you are.
You're saying everything that I so desperately want to hear.
And I mean 'em, kiddo.
I do.
Yeah.
That's why it's gonna break both of our hearts when I tell you I can't do this with you again, Kenny.
What are you talking about? I don't love you anymore.
We can work on that.
- Hmm.
Except we can't.
- Why? Kenny, it's not that I don't think that I could fall in love with you again.
It's that I don't want to.
Yeah.
One second.
Maggie, the signing table's all set up whenever you're ready.
Yeah.
Thanks, Judith.
I'll be right out.
You did great, maggie.
The children of thousand oaks love you.
Did you see that little Korean girl down in front? Oh, the way she looked at me.
I can get used to that.
You know what I hate about thousand oaks? It's way the hell out here.
Any chance I can get you to ride back with me? Keep me company? I appreciate the offer, Judith, but if you can't stand being alone with yourself for that long, how do you expect me to stand it? Hey, Bo, someone's here to see you.
You call me? Oh.
Hey.
- Are you into kit building? - Not really.
Um, I mentioned to coach Velasquez about working with me yesterday.
He said you were the best high-school pitcher he ever saw.
- You better believe it.
- We didn't buy those trophies.
- Mom, he doesn't care.
You know, Bo would be pitching for the Dodgers today - if he hadn't hurt his - Mom.
Give us a minute, okay? Sure.
So what brings you by? I was wondering if you were planning to come to anymore practices.
I might.
Why? I thought, you know, you could work with me some more.
I talked it over with coach V.
He said it was cool.
Coach V? Yeah.
He's a good man.
He knows what he's talking about.
You should listen to him.
So are you serious about the game? - Oh, hell yeah.
'Cause I don't want to waste my time on bullshit.
You'd better be willing to work.
I am.
I've got plans.
I'm gonna go play college ball, get drafted.
I'm going all the way to the show.
You think you're that good, huh? You tell me.
hey! Keep it friendly, will you?! I'm sorry, ma'am.
Have a good day, sir.
Ben, you all right in there? Oh, yeah.
they say that odor evokes the strongest, most powerful memories.
I haven't smelled this crap in 30 years.
Cassie used to ingest it by the boatloads.
She'd spoon her little fingers in the jar You son of a bitch.
How dare you? - Jules - I don't want to hear any of your excuses.
The landlord called and told me someone was taking Cassie's stuff.
Immediately, I knew it was you.
- But, honey - Where have you been? I've done everything up until now.
I went to the morgue and I.
D.
'ed her body, handled the fucking funeral services, waited for the police to bring her stuff back and then you just waltz in so you can haul everything away? Jules, I know that you've done everything, but I was in rehab, you know? I couldn't I couldn't do anything.
I was in no shape to deal with my daughter's death, but I'm better now and I have to have something to do, and this is all that's left.
I'm gonna give you two a moment.
No, I think you should stay, Anthony.
He's turned you into a grave robber, why would you leave now? Yeah, you know what? It's cool.
Yeah, it's totally cool.
I think you should take everything.
But I know what you're doing.
You're just clearing everything out, emancipating yourself of all reminders of her, just like your shaman would say, right? You're just trying to bury another one of your mistakes.
Sweetheart, you know you're never gonna do this.
You know? This has been sitting here for months and this stuff has never been touched.
I'm just trying to help.
You can take whatever you want, but you can't have this.
I knew that would look great on you.
I don't think I can walk in these heels or breathe in this dress.
Well, luckily, the most we do is just sit.
Oh, I definitely won't be able to sit.
The secret is never lean back in your chair.
All you'll show is stomach.
Just rest against it, put your elbows on the table.
That way your belly is flat and the gentleman thinks you're fascinated with him.
- Let me help you with that.
- Oh, thank you.
I almost never wear it.
When I do, I always put way too much on.
So how nervous are you? Well, I wasn't nervous at all until I saw you.
I mean, who's gonna want to talk to me when you're in the room? Trust me.
In an hour from now when the clients show up, I'm gonna be jealous as hell.
Close your eyes.
So we just talk to them.
I mean, how do we get paid for that? They can just go to a bar and talk to all sorts of girls.
You're a wealthy man, you go to a bar, you have all these 20-year-old wannabes that have nothing to offer but their looks.
Here you have a woman who looks like you, who's hanging on every word they say.
and the only thing men like stroked more than their cocks are their egos.
We won't have to touch them or anything? No, and if you do, you get fired.
Come on.
I'm dead serious.
Look, we make our money teasing it out of men.
I'm not gonna be able to do this.
Sure you are.
Just do what I say, and by the time we give them a kiss on the cheek to say good night, they'll come in their pants and leave very happy.
If this meeting goes well.
and I'll make sure it does I want that press conference rescheduled A.
S.
A.
P.
Already on it.
What? How many of those have you had today? Clearly not enough.
The cocksucker put a drain in my mouth, now it hurts worse than it did before.
Okay, honey, I'm out.
Call Dr.
Fisk, have him call this in to the nearest pharmacy.
We'll stop on the way.
Seth, we're already running late.
Councilman Rizzario and the citizens' committee leaders are waiting.
Let's not piss these people off.
Pull over.
Pull over right here.
There's a pharmacy.
- Seth, we have to try to respect them.
- They'll fucking wait.
This is good.
It's all about his mechanics.
If I can help him with those, I think I think this kid I like his attitude too.
I can tell he really wants it.
Well, he is a lucky young man.
If you ask me, he should be paying for the privilege of working with you.
Okay, mom, but this isn't about me.
- I've been trying to tell you - I know, I know.
He's gonna be a big star.
You know what? Talk to me when he has a wall full of those.
A bunch of old trophies? What does that have to do with anything, mom? The only person that cares about those stupid things is you.
They belong in a box somewhere.
Is that Oh my God, it's him.
Who? That man by the S.
U.
V.
Isn't that Seth Blanchard? How should I know? Bo, he's only one of the richest men in the world.
I have one of his books in the back.
I'm gonna go see if he can sign it.
Thanks for listening.
I really appreciate it.
Hey, pal, you've got to move the truck.
You're in a loading zone.
Chop chop.
I'm just having a prescription filled at the pharmacy.
Yeah, that's terrific.
You're still gonna have to move your vehicle, all right? My driver's got the keys and he's getting a coffee.

There we go, Mr.
Shiguru.
Oh, Joseph Watanabe.
Says hello.
You know Joseph? How is he? Happily back home with his family in Tokyo, but unhappy that he can't be here.
Well, Joseph has a beautiful family.
He insisted I stop in and see you.
He said you were a wonderful conversationalist.
Joseph is much too generous.
If I were even more generous? Mr.
Shiguru, you're making me blush.
Will you excuse me while I go powder my nose? Of course.
Give 'em away.
You think I'm interested in your titties? - This is not okay.
- I know I know rules.
I got out.
Do you want to see me fired? Whale left town just gone.
So find another one.
What a good idea.
What do you think I've been doing at the card rooms? Come on.
More cards.
Great.
Great Jimmy.
Hey, I've still got plenty left.
What about some of your fat friends out here? - I just need an introduction.
- Jimmy, get out.
- Now.
- Don't tell me to leave.
I need that money tonight, Inez.
If I can't pay it by tonight, I've got a beatdown waiting for me.
- You said by the end of the week.
- I didn't want to worry you, honey.
What about that guy what about the guy that's staring down your dress? Chinks, they all think they can play pool.
Jimmy, I gave you my money.
If Shauna sees you hustling in here, I'm gone.
So suddenly this is all about you? Hey, don't say I didn't give you a chance.
Fuck.
Fuck.
I made sure she had the best of everything schools, nannies, you name it but I wasn't part of her life.
In case you aren't aware, Anthony, I was an exceptionally shitty father.
I saw the effect my lifestyle had on Jules and so I decided I wasn't gonna screw up Cassie's life by so I sent her off to live with her mom.
And from what I understand, she turned out to be a very wonderful, caring, well-adjusted young woman.
So mission accomplished.
Go home, Ben.
Come back in the morning when the movers get here.
- I can finish the rest.
- No, I need to do this.
I need to do this, Anthony.
Pardon me, Mrs.
Blanchard.
I'll just be a moment.
Come on, baby.
Come back to me.
I need you.
Thanks a bunch for picking me up.
Prick.
Stop it.
Leave me alone.
Oh, baby, what did they do to your face? They took it all, all your money.
We'll make it back.
We'll make it back.
Don't worry.
I still owe him.
I'm so stupid - I got - Baby, it's okay.
We'll find a way.
It's okay, baby I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We'll find a way.
Yeah? Wait a minute.
Who is this? What hospital? Yeah, but what's this about? Hey.
Um, I'm sorry.
I got a call saying Mr.
Blanchard wanted to see me? I'm, uh, Kenny Battaglia.
I was with him when he collapsed outside the pharmacy.
I'm Maggie.
I'm Mr.
Blanchard's wife.
Thank you for helping him.
Oh, not a problem.
Just happened to be in the right place at the right time.
So I'm a little curious - how'd you guys find me? - My husband, he has a way of Seth? Seth, what are you doing? I'd like some privacy, please.
Everybody out but him.
I want to speak to Mr.
Battaglia alone.
- Baby, just give me a few minutes, okay? - Okay.
I'll be right outside.
You seem like you're doing better.
Man, the way you went down, I thought you were stroking out or something.
Mr.
Battaglia, yesterday at the parking lot, I need to know what you saw.
Okay.
Um, I saw you fall.
And, um No.
No no.
Before that.
The light.
Did you see the light? It was all around me, all around us.
You had to have seen it.
You sure you shouldn't be in bed? Something happened out there yesterday that had nothing to do with the vicodin overdose.
It can't be.
It was too clear.
and that voice.
With all due respect, Mr.
Blanchard, when I was on the force, some of the things that people said they saw when they were high most fucked up things I ever heard.
Maybe you're right.
It just felt so real.
It felt so real.
It felt like like like what? Like divine intervention.
What do you mean exactly? I know this sounds insane.
Maybe it is the vicodin.
And I'm no fucking Joan of Arc, that's for sure.
It's just the voice.
Excuse me, Mr.
Blanchard? The voice I heard I think it was God.
I think God spoke to me.
What is it you think you'll actually find? Just call up the lapd, tell 'em you'll make a sizable donation to the policeman's benevolent association if they reopen the case.
Now I'm talking to the walls.
Great.
I heard every word you said, Anthony.
But the LAPD has had their chance already.
And the private investigator, he's had his chance.
And now it's my turn.
And I'm gonna find my daughter's killer.
And when I find that cocksucker that took my baby's life, I'm gonna kill him.
I'm gonna avenge Cassie's death by removing his sick demented, twisted, fucking heart.
That's what I'm gonna do, Anthony and I'm gonna enjoy every fuckin' minute of it.
