We Sons Of Daley [Manhattan Blues]

He's right. You can't possibly know, so we'd better do some monologuing.

Our logic (which we say out loud):

Armstrong is a shitty liar. We knew he was lying before he even said anything. What would he be trying to hide?

Probably that he shot the hostages. That he fucked up and killed the hostages and we wouldn't approve of it.

But Armstrong isn't a bad guy; he wouldn't kill for the heck of it, and Shewson wouldn't cover him if there wasn't a good reason for it.

So: turn to Armstrong and tell him that he gets one chance to tell you the truth. Your job is to make sure that there wasn't any treason or high perjury going on. If he was acting in good faith to the team (emphasize this) and the mission, then we can just drop this. If he lies, we shoot Shewson where it hurts.
