Batting averages? Are you sure

Good. So are we, so let's go.

Yeah.

- The whole time.

That's great. Always gotta stick around

and watch the fun. Watch 'em squirm.

Hey, how about some champagne?

Right? Yes, this one and this one. Yes.

Jesus.

Field of opportunity.

Oh.

Mm-hm. Hans killed her.

Actually, Chantal asked him to do it.

She would have done it herself anyway.

After looking at these pictures all night,
