l'm just here for the summer,

visiting my grandfather.

Let's let them go, come on.

Get out of here.

Get home safe, Bishop.

ENOCH:
God bless you, Detective.

(SlGHS)

The only thing we're gonna get

out of this case is an empty feeling.

How can we do police work,

when even the preachers are afraid to talk?

The Hook.

Red Hook, baby.

Sh*t!

To see me or see Hotlanta?

You know, Flik,

l had to do a lot of promising

just to say goodbye to your silly butt.
