Up On the Roof


John Milton: [On the roof] 
What do you think? Some people can't handle it 

Kevin Lomax: 
It's peaceful 

John Milton: 
My sentiments exactly, fill in the resume for me, what does your father do? 

Kevin Lomax: 
I never got to know my father, he passed away before I was born my mother raised me just the two of us 

John Milton: 
That can't be easy in a town like Gainesville can it? 

Kevin Lomax: 
I don't think it's easy anywhere 

John Milton:
 A little different when you looking down isn't it? 

Kevin Lomax: 
Yes it is 

John Milton: 
Your mother, what's she like? 

Kevin Lomax: 
She's a preacher's daughter she's tough she's worked at the same poultry as I can remember she's got a church she really likes, she's usually there or they go out and do a lot of volunteer work 

John Milton: 
Did it rub off? The book or the church? 

Kevin Lomax: 
No I'm on parole early release for time served 

John Milton: 
A lot of potential clients down there 

Kevin Lomax: 
why do you need a criminal department? 

John Milton: 
Our clients break the law like anyone else just tired of sending their business across the street 

Kevin Lomax:
 Are you offering me a job? 

John Milton: 
I'm thinking about it, I know you got talent, I knew that before you got here its just the other thing I wonder about: Pressure it changes everything some people you squeeze them, they focus others fold can you summon your talent at will? Can you deliver on a deadline? Can you sleep at night? 

Kevin Lomax: 
When do we talk about money? 

John Milton: 
Money? That's the easy part
