Karim probably found out about it, and they killed him because he was gonna blow the whistle on the whole thing. That's very, very possible. Damn. I can't wait to push this in Vietti's stupid face. No, no, no, no. We're gonna solve this shit ourselves.

Then, I tell you the Shaft way to tell that dick head boss of yours to kiss your ass. - No, that's... that's what I meant. - But first, we gotta put eyes on Bennie. So we can get some proof.

This is crazy. You're telling me that the cleric and this gang are working together? Yeah, it was hard for me to believe that at first, too. Even if any of this is true, why would Karim - have anything to do with it? - I don't know, but I'mma find out. And when I do, whoever killed him is gonna be sorry.

He's actually really funny, though. And you should see the way the people in Harlem react to him. He's like... a legend. Well, I mean, I'm happy your dad's funny, but it doesn't make up for the fact that he abandoned you when you were a baby and wanted nothing to do with you.
