Now, that rat motherfucker is about to stick his head up out his hole, and I'm gonna whack-a-mole the shit out of him. I need you to get some info on this dude for me. Name, Eddie Dominguez. Army vet. Think he's involved with Gordito, works over at Brothers Watching Brothers. That's a terrible motherfucking name. Yeah, they need to change that shit. I'll see what I can do. So, you're saying that with an associate's degree, I can then apply for night classes? Mm-hmm. - And get my bachelor's? - Absolutely, yes.
