Storyline
| Plot Summary |
George Kuffs didn't finish high-school, just lost his job and his girlfriend who still is in college is pregnant. Since he can't see how he can support her, he thinks she is better off without him. So he visits his elder brother, Brad, to squeze him for a loan so he can go to Brazil where there's a gold-rush going on. Unfortunately Brad is killed and George is suddenly the owner of Brad's "patrol special" district.

[He reaches for his gun, Ted blows him away] George Kuffs: [gestures to dead hood] Well, now we know he can add... [gestures to Ted] George Kuffs: And he can subtract. So who wants to be next here?
