ven if it is too big to be done easily. In this case, "got it?" is away of asking if the person understands. Ain’t a tough guy in the world that’s going to frisk you there. "A tough guy" is a thug, gangster or just a guy who is mean or not easily scared. "To frisk" a person is to search their clothes or bodies, the way the police search a person they suspect has a gun or drugs on them. I just made the world’s easiest five grand! A "grand" is a very slangy way of saying $1,000. Come on Luther, hustle! "Come on" is the most versatile phrasal verb in English, and here means "go faster." If you tell a person to "hustle," you are also telling them to move faster or hurry up. I thought for sure he was on to us. If a person is "on to" somebody else, they know what that person is planning (even if it’s secret or illegal). We had him all the way. Luther’s way of saying they were able to fool their victim without him ever suspecting anything wrong. Did you know that he was loaded? :: Hell no! If a person is "loaded," they are either completely drunk, or as in this case, have lots of money. "Hell no" is one way of saying absolutely not. I would have settled for pawning one of them shoes.

You’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. A cliché which means that all of whatever type of thing is being discussed are all alike (It can refer to anything, from Australian people to horror movies to baseball games. Of course, it’s almost never true). All those years of training, right down the drain. "Training" is the act of practicing to master a skill (such as a sport or musical instrument). If something goes "down the drain," it is seen as completely wasted (A drain is the pipe beneath a kitchen sink). Just a little hard times. Everything is jake, now.
