Chuckie's lawyer and Sammi in “Unfinished Business”

CSChuckie's lawyer

Happy to report Chuckie's IQ test came back. 71.

Is that good?

CSChuckie's lawyer

It's good for us. The judge might take pity on him, go easy on his sentence.

Did you hear that, Chuckie? You scored a 71. Better than you ever did in school. So he'll get off with probation?

CSChuckie's lawyer

I didn't say that.

My boy can't go to juvie.

CSChuckie's lawyer

I'm doing everything I can.

You better be. What the hell are we paying you for?

CSChuckie's lawyer

The state pays me.

Yeah, and who do you think's part of the state? Me.

CSChuckie's lawyer

Ms. Slott, your son was caught with 10 pounds of heroin on him. Literally, the evidence was strapped to his body. Even if he is functionally retarded, he's getting time. I'm sorry.

Chuckie. [He's too engrossed in his handheld game to heed her] Mommy needs to talk to you. Chuckie. Chuckie! Put down the fucking game. Chuckie, you've always been my little bunny. Cute, round, and so innocent. But in prison, little bunnies get raped. Do you know what that means? It's when big, scary men pretend you're a woman. I'm not gonna be there in juvie to protect you, so you need to listen very carefully. Make friends in there. Do things for them, so they'll protect you. Anything it takes. Like making them feel good. Do you understand? Like touching them. [The lawyer gasps] Jerk the guards off, Chuckie, in exchange for protection. Do you know how to jerk a guard off? I'll teach you.
