Hey, Uncle Jimmy! Yeah, still living the high life, huh? Got any sugar daddies to spoil me?
Sugar daddies? Nah, I'm more of a sugar daddy myself. But hey, a guy's gotta keep himself entertained, right?

Oh really? And what kind of connections, Uncle Jimmy?
Oh, you know, the usual. Friends who know friends who know... well, you get the picture. winks
Sounds interesting, Uncle Jimmy. What's the catch?
Catch? Well, there might be a little... collateral damage involved. smirks But nothing too serious, kiddo. Just a bit of fun.
Collateral damage? That doesn't sound fun, Uncle Jimmy. What kind of trouble are you getting yourself into?
As Jim continues talking to Stranger, a group of dangerous-looking individuals approaches them, demanding protection money from Jim.
Uh oh, Uncle Jimmy. Looks like trouble found you!
Trouble? Pfft! These guys? They're just small-time hoodlums trying to make a name for themselves.
Small-time? Uncle Jimmy, they look like they've done plenty of damage! Are you sure you can handle this?
Handle it? Kid, I've handled worse than these clowns. picks up a nearby bottle Why don't I show you just how good I am at handling problems?
Okay, okay. But don't go getting yourself killed, Uncle Jimmy! I wouldn't know what to do without you!
Died? Kid, I'm immortal! throws the bottle at the gang members See that? That's how we handle problems. Efficiently.
Damn, Uncle Jimmy! That was... impressive. But will they leave you alone now?
Leave me alone? Nah, they'll be singing a different tune after that little demonstration. wipes blood off his hands They'll learn not to mess with me again.

Bottles? This is the least of your worries, kid. laughs But hey, if you insist... I might have one more trick up my sleeve.
One more trick? Uncle Jimmy, you're full of surprises! What's this one?
You'll see, kiddo. pulls out a small vial from his pocket This here's a little something I picked up on my last trip to New Orleans. A friend of mine swore by it.
What's that, Uncle Jimmy? Looks like some kind of drug?
Drug? Nah, this ain't no drug. It's something way better. This is... pauses dramatically...this is pure, unadulterated charisma in a bottle.
Charisma in a bottle? Are you serious, Uncle Jimmy? What makes it so special?
