L: What do you see here?
T: What I see is...looks like a Park Avenue, a Blue Park Avenue with...looks like Shawty Lo in the back seat with his head hanged out. With a Chevy Caprice, a bubble Chevy Caprice in the back of em. Looks like two people in the back. They might be playing some Dan Elroy, you know, the country singer. And he got his head [unintelligible] the blue car which is in front of that car. They don't have no rims on the car. It's just blue. It appears to be nighttime.

L: Does he look alive to you?
T: He look like he happy. Like something wrong with his neck. He might be crankin that Soulja Boy.
