Then Mr. Wayne needs to contact Alfie directly and speak to him respectfully. Alfie's a gang leader, Steph. People talk down to him and condescend, I imagine he's a lot less nice about it at home and in person than he is here over the network.
[John's pretty sure a few people would have gotten shot in the face at this point, actually. But that's not here.]
None of this ordering about. None of the condescension and assumptions. That's what's putting Alfie on edge. He's not going to back down, and I'm sorry, but I don't have that kind of sway over him. He listens to me a bit, but he doesn't listen to me that much. And honestly? I think it's Mr. Wayne who needs to adjust his attitude here. Ever since he's arrived, he's been a dick. I can deal with it. Other people don't take it as well.
