He's in limbo til someone steps up. Not sure what to do.”“That was rough one.”“Yeah, Chung shot him. I guess we're lucky the big dog survived.”“How's he doing?”“He'll live. Bullet entered at his front shoulder and somehow skidded along under his skin before lodging into a rib.”“How's Danny?”“For an eight-year old who just shot a woman in the back of the head, he's fine.”
