Leon Tao : No, we were just we were just talking...
Byron : [Interrupts] You are right, Detective. Leon stole a great deal of money from us and we're just about done talking when you walked in.
John Reese : Listen, I don't have time for this. I need to find my friend, so I'll take Leon here and we're gonna leave.
Byron : [Puts a gun on the table] Leon stole more than enough, in fact to make it worth us killing a cop so maybe we can make a deal. You leave Leon here with us and you can keep looking for your friend.
John Reese : You know, the guy who owned this badge would probably have accepted the market. But I'm not him.
