Hey, Swayzak! You missed it, buddy! Oh, you should have been there, man! Really, it was ****in' great. I mean, we almost lost it. We almost lost a whole goddamn company for you just because, well, you know, since you shut down Thirty-Three. Well, there's no ****in' backup, right? And we do, we appreciate it. I mean, I don't know about the rest of the guys, but you got my vote for mayor!

Swayzak

Look, Lieutenant, if you have a problem, why don't you help us? Why don't you work with the task force...

Task force? Three guys have died already this year because of the cuts made by your ****IN' TASK FORCE!
