    ... block from them.

    "Nah, we got the landlord's okay, in writing," said the utility inspector to the uniformed and code enforcement officers. "We're gonna get the whole block today. We started with Wilson's a couple weeks ago, but they wouldn't let us in certain places in their place. That's why we got you guys. The warrant."
    
    "What happened?" asked an officer.
    
    "Their building is loaded with old and outdated wiring,... they got cables in there that aren't insulated, their boxes ain't to code, there's a lot of shit in there. They wouldn't let us in a few rooms last time. The city ain't gonna let that stand. The entire block is old, so we're gonna spend the next couple of days going over everything, all those buildings was built at the same time, then sold off over the years. These buildings over here..." he pointed. "...we got the landlords okay to go in. They stonewalled, they know they got big repair bills coming... but Wilson? They brought out some big boys, and wouldn't let us finish. I'm sorry, guys."
    
    "Why didn't they let you finish?" asked one officer.
    
    "I dunno. It happens sometimes," said the foreman. "They just kept telling us we couldn't go in a few rooms, and the city tells us we gotta be complete, even though there's more than enough already to get a court-order to update. It's bullshit."
    
    "Let's hope we don't get static today," said one officer. "I'm pullin' a double, I don't want to start my day being a asshole."
    
    "Let's hope," agreed ...
    ... the utility man. "We only gotta do those few rooms in Wilson's. We don't need to redo the rest of the place. I'd say you guys can take off after we get done there. Thirty minutes, I'd guess."
    
    "Here, give me the warrant," said the senior code enforcement officer, holding out his hand.

    "Yo, Smiley!" said the box on the desk.
    
    Smiley walked over, and hit the button to let him talk. "Whatcha got Mike?"
    
    "Dude, there's like two cop cars over here, and we don't see the cops!"

    "Yeah, let me get the egg and sausage, with cheese, and a large coffee. What do you guys want?" said the rookie as he placed his order at the food counter.
    
    "I want what you're getting, Krepps wants the crueler with the glaze and sprinkles, and Shannon wants the egg and triple bacon heart attack. And two large coffees. Oh, and you're paying, rook." said the senior officer behind him, Hall, who'd gone along to be certain the orders were right. The other two officers were grabbing a table.

    "Fuck!" said Lamarr as he moved away from the window. "Damar! I know it's him!"
    
    Smiley moved back to the window to see what was happening. He passed Lamarr as Lamarr almost jumped to his desk, and hit another button on the box.
    
    "Joe! JOE! Pick up, man!" Lamarr said as he got louder.
    
    "Joe. What's up?" came the response through the box.
    
    "Cops! Do it! Dunk the shit and flush it! Now!" Lamarr near shouted.
    
    "What?" came the voice. "All of it?"
    
    "Muthafucka, ALL of it! ...
