Miss Reid any money for rent (Plaintiff/fat roommate chick)?
20sWS: Because our agreement was I didn't have to pay any rent...
JJ: What I'm asking you is: if it's for you free money -which is what it is, free money for you- is what you were doing...
20sWS: I wouldn't want to pay her...
JJ: (order) Pay attention to what I'm saying-
20sWS: Awright...

20sWS: I'm not stealing anything because I'm, I'm unemployed -youknowwhatI'msayin- that's the reason they pay you -youknowwhatI'msayin- I ain't stealin' nothin', I don't have to give her nothin'... I could live in a hotel with that money...
JJ: Got it?

20sWS: I was livin' with her because we was
in a relationship...
