Carly: *walks over* Tripp got his statement.
Speed: *looks through window*
Carly: He said a bunch of guys wearing black stabbed him.
Speed: Did he give any names?
Carly: No.
Speed: Great.
Carly: Why did you help him? You could have let him die.
Speed: He doesn't deserve that satisfaction.
Carly: ...What I don't get is, why would he even go to your place.
Speed: I don't know.
Carly: Well the doctors say he's awake. We can go talk to him.
Speed: Sure.
Hospital room
Logan: Hey...Hey man thanks f-
Speed: Don't. Where were you last night?
Logan: Biscayne ave.
Speed: Why.
Logan: I...I was trying to track down a crack house.
Speed: You were selling right after you were released? That's pretty low.
Logan: No. I was trying to stop them. I'm trying to get clean and make something of myself.
Speed: Stop who?
Logan: The feds.
Speed: And that's when you were attacked.
Logan: Yeah. Someone came up behind me and...Three more people just came out of nowhere.
Carly: Did you recognize any of them?
Logan: ...They were wearing black. Does that help?
Speed: No.
Logan: This is what I get for trying to help fight the criminals.
Carly: You murdered someone.
Logan: I'm trying to make some changes in my life. Help people.
Speed: Did three ghosts come to you in your sleep, too?
Logan: *looks at Speed*
Carly: Anything you remember about last night will help.
Logan: What do I get if you guys find the corrupt feds?
Speed: You can discuss a deal with the DA.
Logan: Hey I came to you. And now you're going to just leave me like this? I didn't do anything wrong! I was the one attacked! I could have been murdered!
Speed: Alright.
Carly: *looks at Speed*
Speed: You have one chance to help us, truthfully. If you screw up, that's it. You understand?
Logan: Yes.
Speed: Good. Now, tell me what these guys looked like.
Logan: The one who attacked me was tall. He had a black overcoat, clean shaven face, medium build. He had a scar over his eye.
Speed: You know his name?
Logan: The other ones called him 'Bud'.
Speed: Okay, that's a good start. We'll be in touch.
Logan: No problem.
Speed: *walks to door*
Carly: *walks to door*
Logan: Hey, man.
Speed: *looks at Logan*
Logan: ...Lori...The last thing she said was "I love him".
Speed: *stares at Logan*
Logan: I just wanted you to know.
Speed: ...Enjoy your freedom. *leaves*
Carly: *sigh*
