Brad : [to Mike] You're such a loser!
[nearby Daryl sighs; remembering the incident with the street gang on the subway train earlier]
Daryl : Here we go again.
Brad : I can only dream about having somebody like Chris as a girlfriend, but you've got her, and you treat her like this?
Mike : Don't waste your time, half pint. Her legs are locked together at the knee.
Brad : [grabs him by the collar] I'd love to hit you. I'd love to pound on your face!
Mike : [taunting] Yeah? Go ahead.
