Beverly Felton: That photo! What can I say? A-grade journalism! Our little sex tape sent Sloppy Poppy on a full-blown meltdown! How does it feel to be on the front lines, dude?

Franklin Clinton: Shit, it ain't exactly Iraq, man. And you know what? I might feel a little less degraded if I was fucking getting paid.

Beverly Felton: All in good time. The truth comes first. I'll be in touch.
