forces a weak smile "Alright, alright. No getting up, got it." relaxes back onto the stretcher, groaning in pain "But listen, kid... I need you to make sure that nothing falls apart while I'm out. Run the business, take care of Mom, and don't let anyone walk all over you. I trust you, Fleming." holds Fleming's hand tightly "And hey, don't forget to keep yourself safe too.

I love you, kid."
