Chapter 3: Fear
(Knox walks in on Bartell, who is curling a barbell.)
Knox: You wanted to see me?
Bartell: I hear you've been talking to 5-0 lately.
Knox: What? No.
Bartell: You weren't having a heart-to-heart with a cop you saw on Clubfoot Avenue?
Knox: Oh....yeah....
Bartell: (drops barbell) Yeah? No? You sound confused to me.
Knox: It was nothing, the uniform tried to ask me...(Bartell punches Knox in the face)
Bartell: First you try to duck out on jobs...(punches and knees Knox)...now you're talking to the police...Huh? This makes it very uncomfortable Knox, ya hear?
Knox: Please don't do this, please...
Bartell: (Punches Knox again, to the ground) You're looking for a way out...(draws a gun on Knox)...Maybe I can help. (Two gang-thugs are watching) Naw. This is too easy. (turns the gun away) I wanna make this one messy.
(Knox starts feeding on the fear of the other two gang thugs)
Bartell: (Starts to bludgeon Knox with a baseball bat) AGGGHHH!
(Knox catches and breaks the bat in half, gets up, and Bartell punches again. Knox catches his fist, and throws him across the room. )
Knox: Oh...yeah....It's the fear!
Bartell: (rights himself and re-attacks) AGGGHHH! (Knox blocks the punch, and punches through Bartell's chest.)
Thug #1: You killed Bartell.
Knox: Yeah. I guess I'm the main man now!
Knox:
