You ever stop an' think about the goons you kill off?

( there had been a particular kill that hit jason hard, back in new amsterdam. the only one he'd broken his deal with bruce for. she deserved it, he doesn't regret killing her one bit, but-- )

Ever think about who they have waiting back home for them? I know you do your research, but how 'bout those ones you just offed? Do they have kids back home, waiting for their daddies to return home to them? Were they desperate for cash, out of options, and being a lackey for the D'Amicos was the only way they could get by? Were they born into it, and couldn't find a way out?

( doesn't matter. he's not waiting for a response, he's dropping his fist to slam it into junior's jaw. )

But you're right. It felt real good.
