[Ain't that the truth? Freddy doesn't have similar thoughts either, he's got some faith in somehow keeping this together whether or not it's better for him in the long run. Lawrence Dimick makes a stupid kid who went by Orange of all names feel so much better.]
Naw, I tried to adopt a squirrel once. You know like to see if it would come back to the same spot on the same tree every day? [He waves his cigarette hand.] Didn't work.
[Another pull of his smoke, then Freddy's sitting up straighter to turn towards Larry.] This one call I was on, back when I was a boot, we lit up a car that belonged to the girlfriend of a wanted toerag. She kinda looked relieved to see us. The toerag was in the car of course. So we made it look like a routine traffic stop, "Did you know your right brake light is out?" "No I did not sir now get the fuck out of my fuckin' face, pig." He didn't say it like that but you know that's what he was thinkin'.
[Tapping ash out the window.] While my FTO was handling the fucker I was on the girl's side. I hear this crying coming from the car, kinda like somethin' was tucked up in the seat or whatever. It sounded like a fuckin' baby and I knew it was comin' from the dash so I asked to see the glove box. She looked like she was gonna do it but the cocksucker just gave her this killer stare. So, I reach in to pop the box open myself and this thing rolls out. The perp books it right away and the girl starts screamin'. My FTO took the guy down real quick, made it look so damn easy. Anyway turns out the guy stuffed the pet ferret in the box. Little fella was okay though. I thought about taking him in as evidence you know, then skim a little bit off the top for myself but those things have rabies or something I don't know. I let Animal Control take it.
[Freddy shrugs. Just another failed pet story. It'd be so much easier to keep a beast, like Ace or Krypto.]
