JENNA: Right, but he wasn’t drunk
CHLOE: The Hell you say, Jenna?
JENNA: Yo! He wasn’t drunk
CHLOE: The Hell you say, Jenna?
JENNA: No! Because I heard from Dustin Kropp That rich had barely touched a drop Which means that you can’t blame the things he did on alcohol It’s just so terrible, I don’t want to relive it all But do you want me to tell you?
