Who are you?
I'm St.

Homicide, ma'am.
I [G] want to ask you a few questions, ma'am.
I understand you were almost devoured by the ma'am.
Is that right, dragon?
It was terrible.
He breathed fire on me.
He burned me already.

I saw a man.
Stopped to talk to him.
Pardon me, sir.
Could I talk to you for just a minute, sir?
Sure, I don't mind.
What do you do for a living?
I'm a knave.
Didn't they pick you up on a 903 last year for stealing tarts?
Yeah.
So what, do you want to make a federal case out of it?
No, [Ab] sir.
We heard there was a dragon operating in this neighborhood.
We just want to know if you've seen him.
Sure, I've seen him.
Could you describe him for me?
What's to describe?
He's seen one dragon.
He's seen them all.
Would you try and remember, sir, just for the record?
We just want to get the fact, sir.
Well, he was, you know, he had orange polka dots.
Yes, sir.
Purple feet, breathing fire and smoke.
And one big bloodshot eye right in the middle of his forehead and, uh, like that.
Notice anything
[D] unusual about him?
No, he's just a run-of-the-mill dragon, you know.
Yes, sir.
You can go now.
