I was working in a shop where they asked for protection money. Like hell I'm gonna work in a place like that. [ A shrug. So she slept with one of them because she wanted to and for information, and then she walked in and told them she wanted to join. As easy as that. ]

Think you can eat all of that?

You wanna go for a walk or somethin' after this?

You asking me out on a date, then?

[He definitely wants to call it a date.]

Yeah, all right. Let's go for a walk after.
