It's the second day of the case, and they've stopped for breakfast at the local café before they settle into a long day of battling thugs.
The waitress has just brought out their plates of eggs and pancakes when the explosion goes off. The front window of the diner explodes in a shower of glass, and they dive behind the counter, reaching for their weapons.
"Heyy, boys!" The taunting voice of the local crime boss calls from outside the diner, "C'mon out an' plaaaay!"
Face frowns nervously as he risks a glance over the counter. "Must be at least ten guys out there."
"Must be." Hannibal grins as he checks the clip in his pistol.
"Oh, no." Face shakes his head. "No."
"Hannibal," BA scowls, "This ain't no time for you to do nothin' crazy."
"Yeah, Hannibal, I don't brawl so well on an empty stomach." Murdock agrees.
"You kiddin'?" Hannibal grins cheekily and shifts position, "We'll eat theseguys for breakfast."
With a gleeful chuckle, Hannibal launches himself over the front counter.
The other three exchange longsuffering looks and sigh, shaking their heads. "He's on the Jazz, man." They agree simultaneously.
And then they scramble over the counter after him.
