{He scoffs at the mention of porn. Mostly for the sex, but due to his elevated opinion of women today you get twice the scoff! How dare you treat them as outlets for your sexual persuasions.}

What is it that you would paint, Mr. Hoffman, had you the skill?

[an odd look crosses his face]

I don't paint. I draw.

{Light scoff.} Is there any particular form to your sketches and doodles?

I'm not sure I follow you.

Art is art.

Do you merely shade paper?

What? [Now he looks affronted] No!

People, places, animals. Look, I was in a pretty physical profession I didn't let it get out that I did art.

[He snorts] It really shouldn't but. Appearances. I'm a cop.

[snort] cops don't draw. That's only for "cute sketch artists"
