“You’ve been a damned thorn in my side for too long now, Mister Garrett. Why can’t you leave me in peace, my good man?”

“You’re worth a trunk full of cold hard cash to me, son. And I’ve just got to have it.”

“So you’re a greedy man, Mister Garrett? A man imprisoned by the illusion of money that controls your society?”

“Not really. I just want to get out of this fucked up shit business and retire.”

“Well, I can help you there my friend. I promise that after this evening’s ritual you will be well and truly RETIRED!”
