Julius Quote #210
Quote from Julius in Everybody Hates Chain Snatching
Chris: Well, you know my friend Greg? He has a problem and I want to help him.
Julius: What kind of problem?
Chris: Well, there's this guy who wants him to snatch a chain for him.
Julius: Snatch a chain? That's stealing. People work hard for what they have. Thief, murderer, it's all the same in my book.
Chris: Right. Which is why he doesn't want to do it. But, if he doesn't, the guy is going to beat him up.
Julius: But, if he does, he's going to go to jail. He's going to get beat up anyway. So he can get beat up for breaking the law, or beat up for not breaking the law. But, at least, if he doesn't break the law, the other guy will go to jail, and he'll get beat up instead.
Adult Chris: Huh?
Chris: So should he snatch the chain or not snatch the chain?
Julius: Not snatch the chain.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Why didn't you just say that?
Chris: Well, thanks. I'll tell Greg what you said.
Julius: Why didn't Greg ask his own father for help?
Chris: 'Cause he didn't know what he was going to do.
Julius: Well, tell him don't do nothing stupid.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Since I couldn't afford to buy a chain, I avoided Malvo to buy some time. I took every train. I took every bus. No matter how hard I tried to avoid Malvo, he always seemed to be around. If I could've, I would've taken a underground railroad.
