Quotes

Jon Flint: [after an 'incident' at Wonder World, the trio is at a bar talking about Dewald being Todd's murderer] Axel... don't you think that you're mistaken? That Dewald probably juts resembles Todd's killer?

Jon Flint: Axel look, it's obvious that you're distraught and looking for justice... not to mention revenge. But... is it possible that you want it so badly, that you saw a man who bore a slight resemblance?
