"Well..."

"I don't think we can work that way. Hell, I don't think we'd know how."

"We could learn."

"Yeah, you were right about that. What else are we qualified for?"

"You'll do okay, once you aren’t dropping everything to go with us."

"He'll be the first to get into trouble."

"After you."

Hannibal chuckled softly, then sighed.

"Fun while it lasted, though."

Murdock nodded, smiling.

"Wasn't it, though?"
