Sister: I hate his tattoo so much.
Me:
Yeah, and that’s a real one, too.
Sister: Why would your guy not be happy about scores being settled?
Me:
‘Cause he just wants to bother Miguel, that’s why.
Sister:
Why doesn’t he go fight the white guys?
Me:
‘Cause he just wants to bother Miguel.
Sister:
It doesn’t make sense…
Me:
He just wants to bother Miguel.
Sister: No, not that! It’s going to be too dangerous—
Miguel:
Kill Guerra.
Sister: SEE, I told you! …Who’s Guerra? Is that your guy
Me:
😑 He’s not my guy…
Sister:
What, he belongs to the streets?
Me:
😑
Sister: I think he’s going to buy the lottery ticket and win and then he’s going to keep it for himself.
Me: He’s doing that Asian bullshitting thing right now, don’t you think?
Sister:
Totally… Pretending he reflected, LOL… Playing the Buddhist angle...
Sister: “Li Chen”? How lazy can you be?
(It's a pretty generic name)
Sister: Jia Kenmin… why’s his name like that?
Me: Yeah, it’s kind of old-fashioned. It’s like Daddy’s generation of names…
Sister: No, I mean, they say it the Chinese way…
Me: Oh, I know! I was literally wondering about that the other day!
Sister: His hair looks so bad.
Me:
Yeah, the length really accentuates his hairline in a bad way.
Sister:
It’s medieval squire length….
Me:
It’s not doing him any favors… It looks good short, though.
Sister
: It’s not short, though, is it?
Sister: Not the butt pop… His booty muscles…
Me:
His butt’s definitely up there in the rankings…
Me: I wonder what determines whether they use the sinks here or their cells.
Sister:
Yeah, I’d just use the one in my cell. Especially because that guy (Augustus/Narrator) said that you could get shanked in the shower if you turn your back.
Me: I wonder if they only did this singing plot line for him because the actor was in The Five Heartbeats…
Sister:
What’s that?
Me:
It’s a mini-series about like this fictional motown group… The guy who played Jefferson Keane is also in it.
Sister: Oh, then they definitely did it because of that.
Sister: Why would they put him here to guard a civilian? What’s he gonna do if a prisoner gets agitated? Hobble over? He should be on desk duty.
Me:
He didn’t want to be on desk duty.
Sister:
So? They need to put him on it anyway. And if he quits because he hates sitting at a desk too much, then their problems are solved anyway. They don’t have to worry about a liability and they don’t got to pay anything, either, ‘cause he quit himself…
Sister: She gets way too involved with her patients, man…
Sister: He’s risen and he’s hiding in the laundry room.

Stray Thoughts

  • The apparent gang tattoo on Jia Kenmin’s hand just says “blood” btw
  • Sister: The have the guy in the wheelchair talking about his wife again and still nothing from the Muslim guy whose wife was also on the bus…
