What's my job? l'm just a holder. l hold the stuff just like you give it to me. l don't look at it. l don't touch it. - l don't even know how to cut it. - Try and follow me, all right? ln June when we gave you the dope, it tests 1 00% pure. Now it's July. We pick up the dope and it tests 90% pure. Now somewhere between June and July 1 0% turned to cut. That's none of my business, l'm just a holder. You give me the stuff, l hold the stuff, that's all l know! Hey look, you know, l'm trying to help you out here. But, you know, if you're gonna be a hard ass about it, l gotta disturb him. Now let me tell you, when he's into his music, he hates being disturbed. l'm telling you the truth ! l hope so. Because he's got a talent for sniffing out a lie. lt's scary, it's almost like a sixth sense. Now, are you gonna change your tune or do l gotta bust into his? l'm telling you the truth.
