though this not really used. Figure it out for yourself, Kelly. "To figure out" how to do something is to learn how to do it. Do what I tell you and everything will be jake. "Jake" is fine or OK, though this is no longer used. Hey there, Snyder. Long time, no see. A good way to greet a person who you have not seen in a long time! Chuck, get this off to the department, right away. In this case, "to get off" a message is to mail or send it. Lieutenant Snyder doesn’t know shit. A very crude way of saying that Snyder doesn’t know anything. You ain’t got nothing on me. :: How about counterfeiting? If the police don’t "have anything on" a suspect, they don’t have enough evidence to charge them with a crime. All you’ve got to do is tell us when he’s going to make his chump. A "chump" is an easily fooled or victimized person. Thus, this is a way of saying to carry out a con game, but it is never used. We come in at the sting, make the pinch, and you walk out free as a bird. "The sting" is the moment the victim loses his money in a con game, and here, the pinch is when a criminal suspect is arrested. You want to spend the next 20 years in a federal penitentiary? A "penitentiary" is a prison (Both the 50 states and the federal government run them). I’ll make parole. :: Like hell. You won’t even get a review. To "make parole" is to be released from prison early for good behavior. "Like hell" is a slangy way of saying "no way," and in this case, a "review" is a hearing to see if a prisoner should be released early. I’ll chance it. :: Ok, we might even provide you with a little company on your way up the river. "To chance it" is to take the risk. If a criminal is "sent up the river," they are sent off to prison. Pretty fair grifter in her time. Snyder’s given us quite a folder on her. If a person is "pretty fair" at what they do, they’re pretty good at it. Here, a "folder" is a file with information on a criminal record. Put them all together, and it could add up to a lot of years. This is Polk’s way of saying that Alma might have to spend a lot of years in jail when all of her small crimes are combined. You stink, mister. :: Don’t be a sap. If you tell a person that they stink, you’re saying that they are disgusting or revolting. A "sap" is an interesting word for a foolish, gullible or easily fooled person. If you’re too dumb to save yourself, there’s no sense dragging her down with you. "To drag" something is to pull it, though to "drag down" a person is to bring them down and force lots of problems on to them. Hell yes, we don’t care about the mark. He deserves what he gets. "Hell yes" is a slangy way of saying absolutely, or for sure. OK, but if you try to take it on the lam, we’ll shoot you down on sight. This is
