"Don't Jake me, pal. Let me ask you something. Are you ever going to be a man and stand up and arrest Jade Chen and face whatever consequences come after?"
He looked terrified at the thought, "I can't! It would be a scandal for the city."
I shook my head, "Don't act like it's the city you're worried about, pal. It would be a scandal for you. You'd have to step down from your job and probably face charges. And that's just not something you're willing to do, is it?"
