Derek: Wait a second, wait a second... That doesn't make sense. Nah, you didn't get... you didn't get six years for stealing a TV. Come on.
Lamont: I go in the store, I come out, the police officer grabs my arm, the TV falls on his foot and breaks it. They said I threw the TV at the officer. Assault. Six years.
Derek: Come on, tell the truth. You chucked it at him.
Lamont: Like I said, I came out of the store, he grabbed my arm, it fell... on his foot.
