Zabu: “Did he say what the problem was?” Carmen: “No. Better not be any heat from the eastside. We took care of those pendejos last year and if they start shit again that’s it for them.”

Carmen: “Okay, Sneaks. We’re here. What’s the problem?” Sneakers: “See for yourself…” *distant chanting and muffled voice on a loud speaker* Zabu: “What is that?” Sneakers: “It’s some kind of protest, signs say “No Sims Left Behind”. I think it’s part of that fucking gentrification project. It’s blowing up my spot for the second day. No one wants to stop and buy something with those assholes marching around screaming.” Carmen: *sneering* “Only time those pinche uptowners want anything to do with this neighborhood is when they want to tell us how to do what we’re doing better.”
Zabu: “Why haven’t you run them off?” Sneakers: “Cops, in the unmarked black Simaru.”
