Playboy X: Wassup, money?

Niko Bellic: Hey.

Playboy X: Man... business is tough. I ain't a cold person, I mean, I am cold, but... motherfucker.

Niko Bellic: What are you talking about?

Playboy X: You want a drink?

Niko Bellic: Ehh...

Playboy X: Man, have a seat, man.

Niko Bellic: Alright.

Playboy X: Now, I got into this dope game because it was the only thing that was open to me, man. The only thing, man.

Niko Bellic: Hey, I am not judging.

Playboy X: No, listen. Now I paid my dues. Now I learned in a hard school, man... and I changed stuff, and you know me, I do this stuff so I got a chance to do some good in this town.

Niko Bellic: So you say.

Playboy X: So I say? So I do. when I get the money, man... I will build parks, I will sponsor kids, I will save lives... But I gotta have the money man. 'Cause all this? All this? It means nothing if you ain't got the heart, Niko.

Niko Bellic: Amen, brother.

Playboy X: I mean, fuck, man... fuck! The thing is... you know Jesus? He did some crazy shit, too. I mean, everyone does. He killed people. He killed that John the Baptist cat. He did what he had to do.

Niko Bellic: I don't think you're correct about that.

Playboy X: Man, the point is, man... history is a long time. And you only got one chance... and Dwayne? Man, Dwayne... it's like he thinks it's 1992 and the best you can hope for is a gold chain and a pager. You know, he looks at me like he wants me dead. I took care of business. I gave him money. But because I won't bow down to him and treat him like he The Almighty, motherfucker wants to pop me.

Niko Bellic: Dwayne is a little troubled. He was in prison a long time - maybe you guys should talk...

Playboy X: No, I tried talking. I... I... I tried giving him half of the business. I tried everything a man could reasonably try and still call his self a man.

Niko Bellic: So what you gonna do? Kill him?

Playboy X: Hey I didn't say that. Man, you cold.

Niko Bellic: I was joking!

Playboy X: But what else is there? I mean, cat's been talking. Nah, I hear things. Saying you and me was too tight now... said you disrespected him, called him mad... he's gone crazy. I mean he's gone. Prison does that.

Niko Bellic: Well you can't kill him.

Playboy X: No... But you can.

Niko Bellic: But I don't want to.

Playboy X: Well neither do I, man. But if he goes insane, we all dead anyway. I mean, Dwayne is a killer.

Niko Bellic: (moans) I don't like this conversation.

Playboy X: Do you think that I do? But it's killed or be killed out there. And you got a lunatic after you? Man, you dumb.

Niko Bellic: (coughs)

Playboy X: Now, I will give you a lot of money. Because see me, now I ain't scared of no one, but a motherfuckers says he's gonna kill me? a motherfucker's gonna die.

Niko Bellic: Man, I'm not sure. I've got to think about it.

Playboy X: Well, I hope you see some sense. I will be in touch.
