"Robbie, Robbie, Robbie," Dee sighed, shaking his head in disappointment. "Didn't ya tell us just a couple weeks ago you were gonna give up your life of crime? But here y'are again, with a bunch of stuff I'm pretty sure is stolen. What happened to all your talk of goin' straight?"
"I'm tryin', man!" Robbie Morton protested.
"You're tryin' our patience, is what you're doin'. We worked out asses off makin' sure ya didn't get tossed in lock-up the last time."
"You promised it wouldn't happen again, that you'd keep your nose clean, and now this." The look Ryo gave Robbie had him shuffling his feet awkwardly.
"I know, I'm sorry. A buddy of mine asked me to hold some stuff for a friend of his. What was I supposed to say?"
"No," Ryo said, succinct and to the point. "It's a complete sentence."
"You could'a told your buddy you were outta the game."
"I did, but he said no one would ever know!"
"And yet…"
Robbie's shoulders slumped. "Are ya gonna arrest me?"
"Depends on whether you're willin' to cooperate. We want names, everything ya got."
Robbie sighed. "I need better friends."
"You got us, what more d'ya need?"
