The blood that comes...

You know, I read once

where certain bodies can move on

their ouvn once they've expired.

And I thought that

that was bullshit.

Right. But my friend,

Ronnie Trip, and I,

we went to a funeral home and asked the

guy who was working there about it

Guy thought ave avers-

pulling a prank on him.

But when he figured out

we were serious,

he invited us back

to the back office.

We sat down.

he offered us coffee--

that coffee was horrible: but it

was the gesture that I admired.

And it turns out--

- I-l...

H. . \ moved mm.

- You what?

- I moved him.

- You moved him?

- Yeah, after I found him,

I, uh... I moved him.

- Close the door

- OK, Sal, listen to me.

The only reason

avhy I moved his body is because I didn't

want him in the same room x-vith those girls.

- Right. That's it?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's x-yhat happened, you Knox-y?

Like I told you, I... I...

- Eric. .

I-I x-vant you to do something

for me.

- Yeah, anything.

- I x-yant you to raise your hands

above your head

and widen your stance.

" What':

Uh. why exactly?

- Because I'm gonna

kick you in the balls.

- Come on, Sal.

- OK'?

Gotta let me do this or I'll do

something much worse, believe me. OK'?

Hands up, like a POW.
