Voice Message
 From: Samantha "Yo, have you heard of Eddie? This guy doesn't play. You need to see TJ if you wanna even think about competing at that level."
"Know who Eddie is, don't you? TJ can get you mods that will give you chance against Eddie and his boys." "Eddie's lookin' pretty unstoppable. Gotta get hooked up with the junkman, pronto." |
