"I'm so glad you're alive, and that was really fucking cool, but do you have any idea how stupid that was? I said I'd cover you-- I don't need the money. You had no helmet on, Teesh. You just grabbed the win from the frontrunner, and you did it with your face showing. Half the important people in that crowd want you dead, and the other half of them want to own you."

"Whoa... that's like the most i've ever heard you talk. Besides like to yourself I mean. This is...actually pretty serious huh? I mean, I dont give a shit about helmets, but whaddyou mean people want me dead?"

"Teesh. You know what this is, right?"

"Yea a sweet motorcycle race. The mayors a butt, but at least he sponsors some rad community events."

(quietly)"Oh, god." "Teesh. This is illegal. You at least knew that, right? Each of the racers was representing a gang. You didn't think this was official."

"I'm paying for my grandma's chemo with GANG MONEY???" Kaz pauses for a moment, caught off guard.

"Well. Your grandma was paying for her own chemo with gang money."

"That's sick-I mean BAD. Oh man that's bad. No bueno."

"Okay, okay. Here's what you can do. Keep your head down, get your money, and go. Don't agree to anything, don't meet with anyone. If someone bothers you, say it was a fluke, or that it was some tech you had or something. Say you're never gonna race again. And, for the love of god, at least keep your hood up."

"Are YOU in a gang?? Oh my god. wow. ok. ok, head down, get the money. I won? haha, wow! Don't know how that happened, musta been the wind...Are they gunna have GUNS? like in the godfather??"
