Quotes:

Leon Taylor: [to Eric] A slow white boy, who turned himself into a player. Now don't tell me that you don't want it. Or that you did it for your brother, to kiss off your old man. And don't bring up what happened to Corey, either. Occupational hazard. Now you kicked ass for this job, broke bones for it, suffered concussions, been shot up practically everyday. Now, you may hate it, but the fact is, this is who you are.
