RRodney
Whoa! He gets away with murderin' my sister, and you takin' me?!
[the detectives catch King]
It's over, your highness.
KKing
You ain't got nothin' on me.
Just takin' a bite outta crime.
Just like you took a bite outta Rodney Thompson's arm.
You left your DNA. Thought you were smarter than that.
Please tell the jury what happened.
