Quote #7
Sam slit open a honey bun with his pocketknife. "Mo, if I could I'd go over there and snatch a knot in whoever's taken Miss Lana. If you ask me…"
"Have a Nab," Lavender interrupted, holding out a pack of orange crackers. "Starr's got this under control, Sam. All we got to do is keep cool. Right, Mo?" (21.30-31)
Even Lavender's friends—who don't hang out with Mo all that much—would be willing to take down Robert Slate for her sake. But Lavender thinks that talking about vengeance and going rogue isn't going to help matters. Oh, if only he knew what Mo and Dale were planning…
Quote #8
"You thought maybe the Colonel was in on the heist, so you had the number run without telling me," he said, his voice flat. "What if it had come back the other way? What if it was a part of the loot? Were you going to tell me then?" When I didn't answer, he shook his head. "I thought we were partners," he said. (22.69)
Dale is totally hurt that Mo went ahead with the investigation without him. After all, they're supposedly partners in their little detective agency. So how could she go behind his back and check out the Colonel without him knowing?
Quote #9
She narrowed her eyes. "Let's see. Marla sat at my table and plotted against us, helped kidnap my friends, and held a gun on you and Dale. If you flattened her tires, Mo, I believe I could take it in stride." (25.21)
Miss Rose isn't usually one to condone her kids destroying other peoples' property, but this time she'll give them a pass. Deputy Marla totally deserves every bit of inconvenience Mo and Dale put her through.
