DARIUS:

Look, I hear you. 

And I understand you.

You’re trying to fire me.

Or, I mean, you ARE firing me.

But before you do that.

Before you fire me.

I want to remind you, that we are family.

FAMILY.

And I don’t mean to say that as some hokey, you owe me bullshit but, actually, you do owe me.

Cause I have had your back from the beginning.

And don’t act like I’m terrible at my job.

I am doing fine.

We just gotta stop bringing in these fools who keep fucking things up on staff.

Why are we hiring them?

Why are we hiring them and firing me?

Huh?

Tell me that.

How man you people do you owe favors to, to make you hire these fucknuggets?

AND THEN you FIRE me.

Me.

The guy you ACTUALLY owe a favor to?

Many favors.

FAMILY.

Hell. Even if I wasn’t family.

The shit I’ve done for you.

You -

You know what?

I’m done.

Fire me.

Hire them.

Good luck with that.

Ya need it.
