My partner's Frank Smith. The boss is Captain Bernard. My name's Friday. We're on our way back from a show up, and it was 11. 47 p.m. and we got to room 45. Burgery squad room.

You want to get started on the report? Yeah, all right. I'm sure you're glad to get home. I'm seeing a new building yet. What? Seeing the new building yet. Still part of it. Yeah. Sure is great.

I thought I just thought everything. The lab looks like something out of a movie. Mm-hmm. It's all steel, piled. Lee Jones is gonna flip the same building anyway. A few blocks from the place we cut off the red light and sirens.

The address was a large drug store located at the corner of Olive and Sand T Street. Walked the rest of the way. But the front window had been smashed and the sidewalk was covered with broken glass.

Thank you, John. I'm the one at telephones. I'm Arthur Munsey. Well, that's it. It's Frank Smith. My name is Friday. I'll forget you. Steve Strong. Where'd he go? He just took off. That's all took off.
