  2. 0:02could be lying I could be thinking of
  3. 0:04some other case and you're probably
  4. 0:05talking [ __ ] but I love the way it
  5. 0:07sounds right that's what people like
  6. 0:09about me am I telling you the truth I
  7. 0:12really don't even know but I can deliver
  8. 0:14it sometimes okay so so so so so so so
  9. 0:19uh I've got Lawrence Singleton and the
  10. 0:22attempted murder of Mary
  11. 0:25Vincent um I don't really have much on
  12. 0:28Lawrence besides he was born in Tampa
  13. 0:31Florida in the
  14. 0:341927 July 28th
  15. 0:371927 um and he worked as a merchant
  16. 0:39Seaman in California which seems like a
  17. 0:41pretty boring job I I'm going to be
  18. 0:44honest I don't even know what that means
  19. 0:46you just hang out on a ship it's those
  20. 0:48huge like cargo ships that just take
  21. 0:52those big like metal crates that's some
  22. 0:54people's stuff from one place to another
  23. 0:58you're stuck on a ship but that may have
  24. 1:00been for the best he probably should
  25. 1:01have just stayed away from people so
  26. 1:04whoops I hit my
  27. 1:07microphone okay it's uh September 29th
  28. 1:131978 Mary
  29. 1:15Vincent is hitchhiking to Berkeley
  30. 1:19California from Nevada cuz her parents
  31. 1:22worked in you know the cinos in Las
  32. 1:24Vegas and she was like you know it's the
  33. 1:2870s I don't want to live my life life
  34. 1:30here this stinks where do you go in the
  35. 1:3270s you go to Southern California you go
  36. 1:35to California so and you do hit Tri
  37. 1:37there that's right yeah now I found a
  38. 1:40whole lot of information that was
  39. 1:42different in every single Source
  40. 1:45interesting so I
  41. 1:47found like some stories that sounded
  42. 1:49really good other stories that just
  43. 1:51sounded like why why did this story even
  44. 1:55start if this was the case it seemed
  45. 1:58like so stupid tell good stories then so
  46. 2:01I mean I kind of stripped it down okay
  47. 2:03to like
  48. 2:05so Singleton picks up Mary she's only 15
  49. 2:09years old that sounds right sure so like
  50. 2:11one of the stories started that Mary was
  51. 2:14with her boyfriend and Lawrence stopped
  52. 2:17and he was like I only have room for one
  53. 2:19passenger but he was driving a van and
  54. 2:22it was empty it was just him I've not
  55. 2:25heard that version I thought she was
  56. 2:27traveling alone yeah I could be wrong
  57. 2:29though I'm just going to if she was
  58. 2:30traveling alone so all right uh
  59. 2:33Singleton picks up Mary Vincent and uh
  60. 2:36she just dozes off I don't know how you
  61. 2:38get into a stranger's vehicle and you
  62. 2:40end up just going to sleep it's the 70s
  63. 2:42you trust everyone pretty much so she
  64. 2:46came to and she realized that they were
  65. 2:48heading in the wrong direction so she
  66. 2:50starts freaking out and she's like We're
  67. 2:53going the wrong way you missed an
  68. 2:54important turn off apparently and he's
  69. 2:57like all right calm down I just wasn't
  70. 2:59paying attention so I guess he turns
  71. 3:01around and they start going the right
  72. 3:03way
  73. 3:05again she dozes off again smart and he's
  74. 3:09like I need to pull over because I need
  75. 3:10to pee which is fair yeah he's like I
  76. 3:15can't wait until we get to the next rest
  77. 3:17stop so she's like fine he gets out to
  78. 3:20pee she follows because she needs some
  79. 3:23fresh air well you know somehow he
  80. 3:26sneaks up on her and knocks her out I
  81. 3:28saw in certain places is that it was
  82. 3:30with a sledgehammer but I find that hard
  83. 3:32to believe I feel like you just [ __ ]
  84. 3:34kill
  85. 3:35someone that's fair I feel like the
  86. 3:37story I've heard is that he did like hit
  87. 3:38her with a sledgehammer but I've never
  88. 3:40like I never like I didn't stop to think
  89. 3:43about it you know well you have to I
  90. 3:45mean no if someone if someone hit you
  91. 3:47with a regular Hammer I'm assuming it
  92. 3:50was over the head to knock them out well
  93. 3:53you could very easily kill someone with
  94. 3:55just a regular Hammer maybe it was a
  95. 3:57gentle
  96. 3:58tap have you ever held a
  97. 4:01sledgehammer probably
  98. 4:06not okay anyways things just kept going
  99. 4:10downhill for Mary because she was tied
  100. 4:13up thrown into the back of the van and
  101. 4:15raped repeatedly pretty much all
  102. 4:18night so then he stops the vehicle this
  103. 4:22is later on down the road okay literally
  104. 4:25just down the road sure pulls her out of
  105. 4:28the van she's laying on the side of the
  106. 4:30road and he proceeds to start hacking
  107. 4:32off her arms like just above the forearm
  108. 4:35area so she's bleeding out he's assuming
  109. 4:38that she's going to die so he takes her
  110. 4:42down a cliff it's about like 30t I saw
  111. 4:45some places where he just left her some
  112. 4:48sources were like he just kind of rolled
  113. 4:50her down the hill and was like she's
  114. 4:52going to die I'm just going to leave
  115. 4:55another source was like she got stuffed
  116. 4:57into a sewer pipe that way no one would
  117. 4:59see weird so I don't know I think I've
  118. 5:01heard a different version than two of
  119. 5:03those are what you've heard really but
  120. 5:06maybe I'm getting to ahead of myself so
  121. 5:07I'll let you keep talking and then okay
  122. 5:09if you don't tell what I think I heard
  123. 5:10I'm going to share it anyways because it
  124. 5:12makes the story more interesting even if
  125. 5:13it's a lie that's fair all right so
  126. 5:17anyways uh she she's in a a ditch a
  127. 5:21large ditch regardless of how it happens
  128. 5:24and he drives off um she does not die
  129. 5:28she's bleeding out and she's naked so
  130. 5:31what do you do to stop the bleeding on
  131. 5:32your Stumpy arms that are left you just
  132. 5:35Ram them into the mud sure okay you know
  133. 5:37so no you didn't go too far the what
  134. 5:39I've heard uhhuh is that she willingly
  135. 5:42like went down the cliff to get away
  136. 5:43from him but like w he like hacked off
  137. 5:45one arm and she tried to fight back with
  138. 5:47the other and like had a grip on his
  139. 5:49shoulder or something and then he like
  140. 5:50went for the other arm but then her like
  141. 5:52her hand grip was still holding on to
  142. 5:54him I don't know the validity of that
  143. 5:56story that was just what I think it was
  144. 5:59like based on the story it might have
  145. 6:02been
  146. 6:03like like in one of those TV shows where
  147. 6:07okay I mean it would make for a good
  148. 6:09picture I can see like the arms like a
  149. 6:10reenactment yeah I don't know I might
  150. 6:13just be talking hor [ __ ] who knows okay
  151. 6:16but just imagine
  152. 6:18that okay so now she's she got up to her
  153. 6:22feet her her stumps are all muddy and
  154. 6:25bloody and she's still naked just I just
  155. 6:29imagine she just looks like a horror
  156. 6:30show right now and from some of the
  157. 6:33sources that I saw she climbed up out of
  158. 6:36the the ditch that she was in and she's
  159. 6:38walking down the road and she actually
  160. 6:40encounters people that just look at her
  161. 6:42and they're like no thanks well that was
  162. 6:46both of our thoughts polite so about 3
  163. 6:50miles down the road she finally finds
  164. 6:52some people
  165. 6:54that uh give a [ __ ] I guess and they
  166. 6:59take her to the
  167. 7:00hospital so what would you
  168. 7:02do I don't
  169. 7:04know I assume it's 2020 and I have a
  170. 7:07cell phone and I can just call the
  171. 7:08police I would probably just stop and I
  172. 7:10would just be like let's get you some
  173. 7:13help I probably wouldn't be like get in
  174. 7:16my car right well I don't want to I it's
  175. 7:20going to sound insensitive say that I
  176. 7:21don't want to clean up that mess yeah
  177. 7:22you're not going of get that out all
  178. 7:24that mud and blood and I don't know also
  179. 7:28though I've had almost at my like
  180. 7:30parents house when I still live with um
  181. 7:33a guy stopped along the side of the road
  182. 7:34in Winter one time clearly with a broken
  183. 7:36down car or something and he was trying
  184. 7:38to flag me down and I was like no [ __ ]
  185. 7:41politeness you're a man you're dangerous
  186. 7:43I'm going to keep driving and then I
  187. 7:44told my dad and my dad's like that's
  188. 7:46fine you shouldn't stop for man that's
  189. 7:47not your problem like thank you Dad but
  190. 7:49at the same time one time when I got my
  191. 7:51car stuck in Winter I willingly got in
  192. 7:53some strange man's truck and he was
  193. 7:54going to drive me
  194. 7:56home okay that's pretty dangerous I
  195. 7:59survived this time turned out though
  196. 8:03that where my car was they told me I
  197. 8:04couldn't keep it there I was like no
  198. 8:06thanks for the offer but I'm going to
  199. 8:08stick with my car until I can figure it
  200. 8:09out cuz they're going to tell me in like
  201. 8:1210 ft deep snow yeah that's an
  202. 8:15exaggeration but all right I'll shut up
  203. 8:17I never would have guessed that that's
  204. 8:18an exaggeration 10 ft of snow mhm we
  205. 8:21don't live in I don't know alas even
  206. 8:24have 10t of snow I don't know I've never
  207. 8:27been there I don't [ __ ] think so
  208. 8:30they
  209. 8:32could anywh who uh in the hospital or
  210. 8:37out of the hospital I'm not exactly sure
  211. 8:40uh she ends up giving a detailed uh
  212. 8:43description of Lawrence to a sketch
  213. 8:46artist which was pretty much everywhere
  214. 8:49and then he was recognized by one of his
  215. 8:51neighbors and arrested it was pretty
  216. 8:55uneventful the way that went down um so
  217. 8:59he was sentenced to 14 years in prison
  218. 9:02which was the max Allowed by California
  219. 9:04law at the
  220. 9:06time the judge though that was over the
  221. 9:08case was like you know if I had the
  222. 9:10power I'd send him away for the rest of
  223. 9:11his natural life but he wasn't allowed
  224. 9:13to do that um isn't it I'm interrupting
  225. 9:17but isn't it kind of because he didn't
  226. 9:19actually murder her because she survived
  227. 9:22even though clearly intent was probably
  228. 9:23to murder maybe I don't know I could
  229. 9:27again just be talking I think California
  230. 9:29laws were kind of just pulled back at
  231. 9:32the time because later on there is a law
  232. 9:35passed because of him oh yeah okay I was
  233. 9:38getting there I was getting there and I
  234. 9:39said I'm interrupting unbelievable okay
  235. 9:44probably won't be the last time now this
  236. 9:46is a part that I don't really understand
  237. 9:48because there was a civil judgment that
  238. 9:50Mary Vincent won against him for two and
  239. 9:52a half million dollar but she would she
  240. 9:55never got paid for it because he was
  241. 9:59like unemployed in poor health and said
  242. 10:02he only had like $200 to his name I
  243. 10:05don't understand how any of that
  244. 10:08works maybe it's one of those things
  245. 10:10where like if you are working your pay
  246. 10:12slowly gets docked over time until it's
  247. 10:15paid out it doesn't have to be like all
  248. 10:18upfront I don't know sure but I don't
  249. 10:21know either okay like go to prison for
  250. 10:2314 years but you owe this girl like $200
  251. 10:26million figured out $200 million what
  252. 10:28did you 2 million two and a half I
  253. 10:31rounded up okay so we're actually going
  254. 10:34to be rounding down because he was
  255. 10:36paroled after only eight years in prison
  256. 10:40good behavior
  257. 10:41bud but there's probably less
  258. 10:43opportunity to hacksaw people's arms off
  259. 10:46yeah he was a teaching assistant too he
  260. 10:48was a good
  261. 10:49boy
  262. 10:50[Music]
  263. 10:52okay but okay so he was paroled to uh I
  264. 10:57don't know if I'm going to say this
  265. 10:58right but cont Costa County California
  266. 11:01sure whatever um except anywhere he
  267. 11:05tried to go there were
  268. 11:07protests imagine you know people didn't
  269. 11:10want this guy around so he ended up
  270. 11:12having to stay on a trailer on the
  271. 11:14grounds of the San Quinton state prison
  272. 11:16for the rest of his time onom baby yeah
  273. 11:20so he just lived in a like a single wide
  274. 11:22trailer on Prison ground sounds nice
  275. 11:25like a real [ __ ] boss so he had had
  276. 11:29this weird problem where everything that
  277. 11:32he did wrong he would twist it around in
  278. 11:34his head and make himself believe that
  279. 11:37he did nothing
  280. 11:38wrong okay so the entire time he was on
  281. 11:41trial he
  282. 11:42legitimately didn't understand why he
  283. 11:45was in
  284. 11:46trouble I don't know how you do that
  285. 11:48some form of Personality Disorder yeah
  286. 11:50and I don't know what that is I was
  287. 11:52hoping you could shed some light on it
  288. 11:53but guess
  289. 11:55not no I'm not like a licensed
  290. 11:57psychologist my goodness
  291. 11:59just cuz I read a few
  292. 12:01textbooks okay whatever all right
  293. 12:05so on that subject the County prosecutor
  294. 12:07at Singleton's trial says this is a
  295. 12:10quote he has not taken responsibility he
  296. 12:13lives in a bizarre fantasy land and equ
  297. 12:14quits himself each day he doesn't accept
  298. 12:16his guilt and won't resolve never to do
  299. 12:19it
  300. 12:20again that last part's a little hard to
  301. 12:22say but pretty much he just doesn't get
  302. 12:25it and you'll see that later too um so
  303. 12:29after
  304. 12:30this um is whenever the Singleton bill
  305. 12:34was introduced which introduced the 25
  306. 12:36years to life sentence in California so
  307. 12:39I think there was so much uproar over
  308. 12:41his release and the fact that he wasn't
  309. 12:44just put away for life to begin with was
  310. 12:47just
  311. 12:49crazy oh I also um Mary Vincent was at
  312. 12:53the trial mhm she kind of seems like a
  313. 12:56badass but he uh finished his parole up
  314. 13:00and he moved back to Florida and he's
  315. 13:02living with his
  316. 13:03brother but um in 1990 he was convicted
  317. 13:07of theft twice for get this a $10
  318. 13:12disposable camera and a $3
  319. 13:15hat
  320. 13:17huh interesting so that landed him 60
  321. 13:20days and two years for each of those
  322. 13:23respectively in the spring of
  323. 13:251997 uh Singleton would go on to murder
  324. 13:28another woman
  325. 13:29and it was uh a sex worker this time
  326. 13:34roxan Hayes he was a lonely depressed
  327. 13:3770-year-old man and he was
  328. 13:39like why don't you come over to my place
  329. 13:42and she's like I need to you know feed
  330. 13:44my kids
  331. 13:45sure so uh the police found the body
  332. 13:49stabbed multiple times in like the upper
  333. 13:51body area and her face yeah now
  334. 13:57um Singleton's
  335. 13:59testimony in this case was that they
  336. 14:03were struggling with the knife and she
  337. 14:05accidentally stabbed herself multiple
  338. 14:06times in the face in the stomach the
  339. 14:09chest and the
  340. 14:10face H he he claims seems unlikely yeah
  341. 14:14he claims that after they were done they
  342. 14:18were both naked in his living room
  343. 14:22okay and he paid her and then went to
  344. 14:26get her a $10 bill for a cab ride cuz
  345. 14:30he's a
  346. 14:31gentleman don't look at me like that I'm
  347. 14:34just
  348. 14:35thinking so he goes for his wallet he's
  349. 14:40handing her money and she reaches for
  350. 14:42his wallet apparently okay he goes to
  351. 14:45grab it back and she grabs the knife
  352. 14:47laying on the table conveniently that
  353. 14:50was there because who doesn't just sit
  354. 14:52on the couch and have vegetables on
  355. 14:54their coffee table and they're just
  356. 14:56cutting it up while they watch TV don't
  357. 14:57tell me how to live my life
  358. 14:59[Laughter]
  359. 15:01so yeah they just he kept trying to get
  360. 15:05this knife away from her and you know
  361. 15:06she stabbed herself multiple times I
  362. 15:09don't think so he never did it and then
  363. 15:12he goes on to say that after she
  364. 15:15realizes that she got stabbed I don't
  365. 15:17know how you don't realize it adrenaline
  366. 15:20she's like hold me so so they so they
  367. 15:24lay down on the couch no like like he's
  368. 15:28he's embracing her right now I don't
  369. 15:29know why I'm doing like the arm thing
  370. 15:32but you're just picturing a man holding
  371. 15:33a dead body yeah well dying body dying
  372. 15:36yeah dying okay and then he's like we
  373. 15:39need to get you to a hospital cuz you
  374. 15:42know he's a good guy you know he doesn't
  375. 15:44want her to die he's all right I'll pay
  376. 15:45the C take it to the hospital he's like
  377. 15:47petting her he's like we need to get you
  378. 15:48to a hospital I can't have you be dying
  379. 15:51on
  380. 15:54me so they get up and try and walk
  381. 15:57shocker she collap Colles and [ __ ]
  382. 16:00dies well go
  383. 16:05figure now again Mary Vincent flies all
  384. 16:10the way from California good to Florida
  385. 16:13to testify against him he was sentenced
  386. 16:17to death this
  387. 16:18time except M anticlimactic ending he
  388. 16:22dies of cancer before anything can
  389. 16:24happen always do how unsatisfying in
  390. 16:272001 he just not that I
  391. 16:29necessarily for or against the death
  392. 16:31penalty that's a lorded question I don't
  393. 16:34know M someone else can think about that
  394. 16:37but they got it in
  395. 16:39Florida and then this old man's just
  396. 16:42like I'll beat you to it yeah probably
  397. 16:44save the taxpayers some money a little
  398. 16:47bit I think that's how that works
  399. 16:51right I guess so I mean I I think the
  400. 16:55people pay
  401. 16:57for that stuff you mean the the death
  402. 17:00penalty like or
  403. 17:03treatment no the death penalty oh yeah
  404. 17:06they pay for it yeah definitely see I'm
  405. 17:08learning I don't think they have it now
  406. 17:11though in Florida I think there's only I
  407. 17:14know Texas still has it I feel like
  408. 17:15Florida has to have it that's where all
  409. 17:16the weird stuff
  410. 17:19happen I'm looking it up I'm looking it
  411. 17:25up yeah I
  412. 17:27don't I don't know
  413. 17:29if it's they still have it in Florida
  414. 17:32okay so they still have I mean this was
  415. 17:35in 2001 it wasn't that long ago yeah
  416. 17:37actually I guess it was a while ago it
  417. 17:41was 19 years ago that's about as old as
  418. 17:45I am I don't like this
  419. 17:48thought yeah how does does that make you
  420. 17:51feel old it doesn't make me feel old yet
  421. 17:53oh
  422. 17:54no yeah I really don't like glad we're
  423. 17:56having this moment this [ __ ] sucks
  424. 17:59I don't like it at
  425. 18:01all okay
  426. 18:03anyways wait wait wait wait wait what
  427. 18:07were you boarded the
  428. 18:118S okay that answers my
  429. 18:14question
  430. 18:1589 okay you can't round that one up to
  431. 18:1890
  432. 18:2089 I was basically born in 2001 when
  433. 18:23this
  434. 18:25happened don't don't even okay
  435. 18:30no I'm a millennial I just made the cut
  436. 18:33off I don't like this I do whatever all
  437. 18:37right um now the way Lawrence tells his
  438. 18:41story about roxan
  439. 18:44Hayes he was like he painted the picture
  440. 18:47as he didn't want her to
  441. 18:49die so he just wanted to stab her a
  442. 18:52little bit just a little bit a couple
  443. 18:54times it never hurt anyone do you think
  444. 18:56when it came to Mary Vincent do you
  445. 18:59think it was premeditated do you think
  446. 19:02he like got up and he's like I'm going
  447. 19:03to try and find a hitchhiker and kill
  448. 19:05them or I don't know I guess I've never
  449. 19:08thought about that based off the version
  450. 19:10of the story I know I guess there's room
  451. 19:12for some storytelling with it yeah just
  452. 19:16a little bit you would
  453. 19:18think he must be screwed up a bit if he
  454. 19:20just had available
  455. 19:23tools what kind of line of work was he
  456. 19:26in I don't well he was um he was is that
  457. 19:28Merchant Marine oh right is that though
  458. 19:32something you would be like hacksaw like
  459. 19:34tools in your van while you're driving
  460. 19:37around it's not uncommon to have some
  461. 19:41like if you have a van or like a truck
  462. 19:43it's not uncommon to have certain tools
  463. 19:45cuz from what I understand is he cut her
  464. 19:47arms off with like a hatchet oh okay a
  465. 19:50hatchet so it seems fairly reasonable to
  466. 19:53have a hatchet that seems a little more
  467. 19:55believable for some reason compared to a
  468. 19:57hacksaw now a sledge Hammer I don't
  469. 19:59believe normal people carry a
  470. 20:00sledgehammer around in their
  471. 20:02vehicle and she was also tied up so he
  472. 20:05had rope on him or or twine or something
  473. 20:08I would think that he knew he was
  474. 20:09capable of it and maybe it was something
  475. 20:11he had been thinking about and maybe was
  476. 20:12just waiting for the right
  477. 20:14moment that's fair cuz so maybe that he
  478. 20:17didn't necessarily plan that day like
  479. 20:18I'm going to go drive around maybe I'll
  480. 20:19find a young girl hitchhiking and then I
  481. 20:21can yeah cut I'm sure there lot there's
  482. 20:24a lot of Hitchhikers
  483. 20:25in maybe he was just planning on finding
  484. 20:28a stranger can have to rape and then
  485. 20:30like go and kind just got escalated and
  486. 20:33he's like well since I have this
  487. 20:36stuff I don't
  488. 20:39know
  489. 20:40uh okay why do you think he would leave
  490. 20:44her without making sure that she was
  491. 20:47deadz I chopped her arms off well yeah
  492. 20:52but now I don't know if I would have
  493. 20:54thought of that if I was in her
  494. 20:55situation to like jam your stumps down
  495. 20:58in mud to stop the
  496. 21:00bleeding I probably would have just been
  497. 21:02a huge [ __ ] and just laid there and die
  498. 21:04I was going to say IID probably just lay
  499. 21:05in the ditch and
  500. 21:08die maybe I'm wrong I don't I don't know
  501. 21:12but I feel like someone chopped off my
  502. 21:14arms and' be like just [ __ ] kill me I
  503. 21:17don't want to live like this she went on
  504. 21:19to like create her own Prosthetics and
  505. 21:22stuff like that she's an inspiration so
  506. 21:24good for her you know I wouldn't get
  507. 21:26over that I would cry until I die and
  508. 21:27then I'd be like I have
  509. 21:30[Music]
  510. 21:33drugs never mind I'll shut up what no I
  511. 21:36just going to say like not drugs for
  512. 21:37fine drugs to like just knock me out and
  513. 21:40kill me okay you know well those are
  514. 21:42kind of fun drugs
  515. 21:44well it depends on what you're
  516. 21:47into
  517. 21:49whatever but still I just wonder if he
  518. 21:52would have been able to get away with it
  519. 21:55if he had just made sure that she was
  520. 21:57dead
  521. 21:59so like possible that if he just
  522. 22:02properly killed her yeah or it's like
  523. 22:04maybe
  524. 22:06he maybe he assumed that she was going
  525. 22:08to die and he didn't want to finish her
  526. 22:10off because it would have been harder on
  527. 22:12his conscience well she rolled all the
  528. 22:15way down that ditch or he pushed her
  529. 22:16down there I don't he's probably like I
  530. 22:18don't want to go down that ditch maybe
  531. 22:20it was a complete accident like she
  532. 22:22accidentally rolled down there and he
  533. 22:23was just like ah
  534. 22:25[ __ ] so he just got in his vein and left
  535. 22:29I I'm just guessing that he assumed
  536. 22:33there's no way she's going to survive
  537. 22:35she's going to bleed out she's not going
  538. 22:36to get up and flag someone down now I
  539. 22:40don't know if you came across this in
  540. 22:41your research and I could be thinking of
  541. 22:42something
  542. 22:43else but I
  543. 22:45believe with an like a high chance of
  544. 22:48being
  545. 22:49wrong I
  546. 22:52believe that I'm wrong but in this story
  547. 22:55I think the the couple that was like
  548. 22:57driving by that picked her up they were
  549. 22:58like on their honeymoon or something
  550. 22:59they're like we got to save this person
  551. 23:02they're they need help that's a story
  552. 23:04right yeah right and I could be lying I
  553. 23:06could be thinking of some other case I
  554. 23:08you're probably talking [ __ ] but I love
  555. 23:10the way it sounds right that's what
  556. 23:12people like about me am I telling you
  557. 23:14the truth I really don't even know but I
  558. 23:17can deliver it sometimes as long as you
  559. 23:20make it sound believable you can just
  560. 23:21get away with saying whatever you want
  561. 23:23that's what I do yeah especially at work
  562. 23:28hi how long should I cook this for um I
  563. 23:30don't know I would try this and see if
  564. 23:32it works just take the temperature and
  565. 23:34if it's not bleeding so I think you're
  566. 23:36okay just keep checking it like every
  567. 23:37five minutes and then whenever it's done
  568. 23:38it's done what's the hard about that you
  569. 23:41dummy just imagine that for like aund
  570. 23:45customer questions on like Christmas
  571. 23:48listen I don't want to talk about that
  572. 23:49right now I don't want to think about it
  573. 23:51kind of just makes me want to just some
  574. 23:53of us haven't been on
  575. 23:56vacation okay that sounds like a uo
