[Damn it! How was he supposed to hustle someone who was just as broke as he was? This world really was a bitch! He takes in a steady breath, trying to find some other way he could give this guy a proper run-around.]

So you just went about looting stuff cause you figured you didn't need to pay in this place, huh? [As if... Gintoki hadn't done that. Or just about everyone else he'd run into hadn't done the same thing.] Pretty opportunistic. Just going to live like a hedonist in the ladies' room until this all blows over then?

Man... but when this all blows over the cops are gonna be looking for people like you... They'll eat you alive unless you got a strong ally, you know. You gotta have someone around who is good at handling the police...

[Spoiler: It's him. Or rather, that's what he wants to lead this poor guy to believe.]
