pinched and you end up in jail

I would appreciate just a

little bit of cooperation.

understands big words.

Yeah well there's a

discrepancy with a claim

paperwork for you alright?

Be quiet for a second.

Messing around with vin numbers?

That's a federal offense Ricky.

We're supposed to keep it
