Reed : Saint , do you know any good lawyers? Criminal defense lawyers ?

Saint: Maybe. Why?

Reed : Theo fell over the dead body of that bitch adoption agency woman. They haven't done anything so far but I'm worried.

Saint: Call me. Now.

                  ------------

Theo : Matt , will you help me sleuth?

Matt : Help you what?

Theo : Help me clear my name and solve a murder before I become a prison wife.

Matt : Come again.

Theo : The MPD think I'm a suspect in the murder of Vanessa Clyde. Just because they found me laying on her dead body holding the murder weapon.

Matt : .......

Matt : Call me. Now.

Charles: My dear boy, I turned on NBC Washington local news and what do I see but you and Reed outside the police station. That awful outfit you were wearing! Apparently someone killed that awful Vanessa Clyde. They think it's you. Ridiculous. You could only kill something by falling on them lol. Oh and the media found that hilarious YouTube your should have been a mob princess sister made of you dancing. Now that was a nice suit you had on then. I assume Reed picked it out for you.

Theo : I hate my life. So much.

Saint: I called the friend of a coworker. The best lawyer in the city. Lee Chong. I gave him your number.

Reed: Thanks. Appreciated.

              -------------

Matt : The news is ridiculous! There is no way you can kill anyone. Unless you fell on them. Well actually you did but she was already dead. Saint doesn't want me to but he knows how concerned I am about all this so if you're going to be asking all kinds of nosy Miss Marple questions I got your back, Jack. We will be like Holmes and Watson in BBC Sherlock. You can be Freeman because you're short. Even though technically you're really Holmes because you'll be the one asking all the questions.

Theo : More like Lucy and Ethel, gay man version. Thanks, Matt.

Matt : I like that show. I watch all of the reruns. What's our first move , Holmes?

Theo : Tomorrow you need to get a babysitter for Livvie. I recommend Winnie. I'm taking the day off. We're going to the Lazarus Rising Baptist Church. Do not tell Saint. Because I'm not telling Reed.

Matt : Oh shit. I'm bringing Saint's gun. He has a 45.

Theo : Saint has a gun?

Matt : Fortunately for us tomorrow yes. And again oh shit.

Grace : Little brother, why is your name intertwined with the recent murder of a lesbian adoption lawyer? Hmmm ?

Theo : How is the family doing?

Grace: I'm calling you. You better answer, bitch.

Winnie: Theo ! If you go to jail I'll bake you a cake with a file in it ! Just you know don't eat the file.

Theo : ..............
