You're the one who wanted the kid! I never wanted her!
Let me guess. Parents?
Foster parents.
Right. Sorry, kid.
Sorry about your face. Shit, you do have something on your face.
You should've seen the other guy. Uh...
I want that kid out of my **** house!
You know, kid, not every day is gonna be like this. You just gotta hang in there. [Puts dollar bill on stairway railing post] Get something to eat. Stay outta that. It's not worth it.
Don't talk to me like that!
...
Canary spends the next week settling in to her new job as Roman's personal driver.
Ew. Okay.
What she didn't know is that driving Mr. Face-peely-pants was gonna put her right in the crosshairs of my favorite little piggy.
...
Dinah Lance?
Who the hell are you?
I'm Renee Montoya, detective with GCPD. Your predecessor and I had an arrangement.
Oh, really?
He told me that there was a shipment coming in. A diamond. A very special diamond.
Yeah, not interested, lady. Thanks for the coffee. [Starts walking down hallway]
Do you know who you're working for?
Damn right, I do. He's the man who gave me a job. Took me off the streets. [Starts walking down stairs]
Yeah, well, he's also a very dangerous man. A criminal. A murderer. What would your mother think of you working for a guy like that, huh? You have the same power she had. Don't you think she would want you to use it?
The hell do you know about my mother?
Back in the day, she used to help the GCPD. She was a good woman.
Yeah. She was a damn good woman. The kind of woman who put everyone else's lives before her own. And when she was found dead in the street, where the **** were you and your boys in blue then? Now you wanna come and knock on my door and ask me to help you out and make the same mistake she did? Yeah. Good luck with that.
That's fair enough. And I'm sorry for your loss. For the record, that would never happen on my watch.
