"How 'bout we give 'em enough money for a cheap 'otel room for da night? That'll seem like we're doing sumthin' good," Hamish quietly replies to his brother.
 

Joe looks around, not feeling overly confident that what they are doing is the right thing. He thinks to himself that the most important thing to do here is to make sure no one is hurt needlessly. But strange happenings are afoot and Joe is conciously aware that anything they do while investigating this mystery could turn violent.
 

Not thinking anything strange or feeling as if he is doing anything wrong shorty looks to his brother. Well I was thinking something a little less expensive but..." shorty pulls out about 6 single dollar bills and gives it to his brother, "...here just get rid of them."
 

Thomas is quite surprised by the generosity of the brothers. "I thought they'd just shoot them," he whispers to the priest. "Couldn't you just give them a dollar to go buy a drink," he asks the brothers.

"I'm glad they didn't just shoot them," Joe says with a smile. "Besides, I think there is more to those brothers than meets the eye. They seem to be...honorable somehow. I'm glad they didn't resort to violence. I'm sure we'll reach a point during this investigation where we are forced to commit violence so the less now, the better."
 

Hamish moves over to the bums and attempts to gently stir them from their sleep.

"Scuse me sirs, we's was walkin past and thoughts you might like a little something to get you a warmer place for the night," he says quietly, putting money in each of their hands.

He smiles and offers a hand to help them stand up.
 

The three black men look up at you with confused faces. As they stand one starts to chuckle. "Why, thank ya boss! It's alfawl kind of ya" He turns to the other two bums. "Let's be off fellas!" They walk out of the courtyard and down the alley. They stare at your group for a second and then are gone.
 

Hamish cracks his knuckles and rolls his head across his shoulders.

"Okaly dokaly bro'ter, lets get to work," he says with a mischevious grin.
 

Shorty nods at his brother with a grin. "Right lets find that key bro'ter." Shorty will work with Hamish and use his skills to complement his own and vice versa to get in a quietly as possible.
