      Well, Forrest, you heavily insulted other people, just after Goldie had told you to not threaten other members with wanting to kill them. Your promise to me to not do these things again hadn’t been kept for long.

    the only person I ever remember insulting is Hollis. But he deserves it. Anyway, sir, I would not sit here and beg you to take me back if I did not respect you and what you and what you do. I apologize for what I did wrong.

      I’m sorry, Sean, but you apologized before. It doesn’t work that way.

    You are very intelligent. And so is Sccooby. That is the reason why I wish we were friends. Hollis is an idiot. But I love that man. Hollis, if I insulted you, I love my brother. I tried to befriend Hollis. He’s always on about overtraining. I’m totally against overtraining. Hollis, I am not going to murder you. Please Evil, let Forrest come back.
