    How are you? I'm detective John Kimble!

    First, I would like to just get to know you. I'm going to ask you a bunch of questions, I want you to answer them immediately.

    Who is your daddy and what does he do?

    STOP IT!

    Yeah.

    I'm a cop you idiot!

    I hope you have enough room for my fist because i am going to ram it into your stomach!
