Carl Hickman : Back when I was a young cop, still in the blues, my brother was the biggest drug dealer in the area that I worked.
Tommy McConnel : Are you serious?
Carl Hickman : Oh, yeah. Rule was never talk about it in front of my mother.
Tommy McConnel : She didn't know?
Carl Hickman : She definitely knew. We all just pretended that she didn't.
Tommy McConnel : Wow.
Carl Hickman : Point is, we all got family hanging around our neck. Doesn't reflect on who you are. Not to the people who really know you.
Tommy McConnel : Where is he now?
Carl Hickman : Who's that, my brother? 20 years sober. Yeah. Runs the Narcotics Anonymous program in Queens.
Tommy McConnel : So you're saying there's hope for my family?
Carl Hickman : No. No, after what I saw, they're completely lost. What I'm saying is, you can stop apologizing for them. They're not your burden. See you tomorrow?
Tommy McConnel : Sure no one else will have me.
Carl Hickman : Around here, that's a pretty big club.
