SShamrock

We done gone so far from Baltimore, we're losing the station. Yo', try a Philly station or some shit like that.

The radio in Philly is different?

SShamrock

Nigga, please. You gotta be fucking with me, right? You ain't never heard a station outside of Baltimore?

Yo' man, I ain't never left Baltimore except that Boys Village shit one day, and I wasn't tryin' to hear no radio up in that bitch.

[after a botched attempt to dispose guns in Baltimore harbor fails] It ain't enough I gotta be the one thinking this whole shit through. But I gotta be the one looking out for this shit and checking on this, making sure this shit is done. No, that's not enough. That's why they pay CEOs so much money; cause when shit go bad, it fall of them. Everybody else can be ducking and hiding, doing what they fucking wanna do. And when push come to shove, I'm the one that's gotta take the responsibility, and y'all are leaving me very little to work with right now!

SShamrock

Hold up, String-

No, that's a very simple thing, my nigga. You drive the guns to the water. You look around, you ain't see anybody, you throw the guns. In the water. Splash.

But what if they don't cop our re-up, though?

Well, I'ma worry about that when it happen. Until then, Mr. Charles, we're going to handle this shit like businessmen, sell the shit, make the profit and later for that gangsta bullshit. [Poot raises his hand.] Yeah.

Do the chair know we gonna look like some punk-ass bitches out there?

Motherfucker, I will punk your ass for sayin such shit!

SShamrock

Yo, String, Poot did have the floor, man.

Shut the fuck up, this nigga too ignorant to have the fuckin' floor!
