'Oof! What's with the black look around your left eyeball? Bad makeup job?' Max asked.
'Got socked real good trying to hand in a suspect. And yes, it hurts, and it I don't really want your humorous side right now.' Ellis grumbled.

Ellis snorted. 'At least it wasn't a frozen steak.'
'Ah ha! I knew I could get you to crack a smile!'
