Eric Mendenhall: Joey Toledo

Quotes 

• [a battered and bloody Joey Toledo limps into Tobias' office] 

  Tobias Whale : What the hell happened to you?

  Joey Toledo : I just fought Black Lightning. I mean, one more minute and I would have killed him, I swear. I mean, something's wrong with his head. He looked half-dead.

  Tobias Whale : So, why didn't you finish him?

  [Tobias grabs Joey by the throat and lifts him up in the air] 

  Joey Toledo : I tried, but I was all on my own. He-he trashed my gun and I couldn't take him. I tipped our guy in the department.

  [Tobias drops him] 

  Tobias Whale : There was a time you could depend on white folks to be professional. Nowadays, white boys just as lazy and shiftless as the brothers.

  Syonide : Tori's protection team checked in on schedule.

  Tobias Whale : Hmm...

  Syonide : All is well.

  Joey Toledo : Tori's under protection?

  Tobias Whale : Lady Eve sent me powder from ground albino bones, trying to mess with my head.

  Joey Toledo : Or issue a warning.

  Tobias Whale : Hmm. Yeah, and you're bleeding on my floor.

  Joey Toledo : Sorry, boss.

  Tobias Whale : Make sure we got a crew in lockup on standby and let me know as soon as the cops get him. Black Lightning doesn't live out the night.
