— What do you mean?
— What do I mean? Our waiter, where is he? Don't tell me he's still in the bathroom. He never came back to see if we wanted anything else. He never brought us our check. We wanted our check so we could get the hell out of here. Here. This should be sufficient. And don't be expecting a tip.

It's a lonely thing, killing a man. Once you start, once you kill somebody someone cares about... pulling that trigger becomes a way of life.

But at least I know how to stay warm in it. Scotch is far easier, trust me.
