Sammy shook her head slowly. She wished she could afford such luxuries.

"I was thinking about where I could lay my hands on a chunk of money. Do you know where I can sell my kidney? Or somewhere I can work late at night as a stripper?"

Ricardo looked at her confused. "Stripper? They would remove you from Polar Stars if you became a stripper. Sell your kidney? Why would you want to do that?"

"I am about to live under a bridge, downtown somewhere with my father who is in a vegetative state. Why do people call money the root of all evil, yet right now it is the solution to all my problems before I go out and DO evil?"

Ricardo frowned. "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil, not money itself. Live under a bridge? What is going on?"
