[A familiar drawl surfaces on the network later in the afternoon. There's a little bit of interference however, because some even more familiar cursing can be heard at the start of the clip]

Daggum-blasted, shoddy hunk of crowbait...!

'Shoddy hunk of crowbait'? [Ro tries to hold it back but damn it, she can't help a laugh.] Man, and I thought Georgians had strangest shit for sayings.

[Regardless, have a little salute! She's in a good mood today.]

Happy Fourth, Jake. What's up, cowpoke? [AND AS FOR SOMETHING ACTUALLY USEFUL...] You're probably gonna get more than decent information out of Ripley's victims. I wouldn't be any help, I never met her in my life, but it gives me a reason not to go gambling any time soon.

It's a piece a' junk, that's all it is. An' crowbait ain't nothin' but a useless horse, much like most technology I come across is pretty useless to me.

[He gives her a bit of a grin.] Nothin' too strenuous, just kickin' back on my day off, havin' me a little moonshine and lookin' forward to that fireworks display that one guy's plannin' all by himself.

I got as much as I could from miss Re-l but I figgered there'd be more people than just her. So that's why I sent out the all call to the network.

... heh. All this gamblin' talk is remindin' me of a Johnny Cash song.

That all just sails over my head no matter what, so I think that makes us even.

You actually have moonshine? [That gets her laughing in a good-natured sort of way.] Yeah, didn't that... cape-guy say he'd do that?

I know it happened to Edgeworth. You know him, right?

Aww, Jake, you got a Johnny Cash soul?

Naw, I ain't a big fan of rotgut, only the real stuff. [He gives her a big grin.] Yeah, lookin' forward to that show. Though I reckon we had that one on the first.

Yeah, I know 'im. Better send him a line soon. Thanks, Ro.

Johnny's my man. He's been one of my favorites since I was knee high to a grasshopper.

Mister Marshall. Please tell me you are not drinking on the job.

[Liquid's voice is lightly amused, at least.]

I ain't drinkin' off the job. [A beat.] 'm off work, currently.

Yet you're still investigating while drinking. Isn't that a tiny bit... unprofessional?

For me it's a national holiday. Y'know, the day we Americans declared independence from you folks. I'm just celebratin' the best way I know how, that's all.

An' it's not like I'm drunk or nothin'. Just a little whiskey to unwind.

[Oh...that's...a rather familiar sounding drawl. Please excuse him. He had...A rather good friend from Texas.]

Unfortunately I do not have any information on...this Miss Riley Ripley, otherwise I would gladly assist. But you're assisting Miss Re-l with Augustus Boyce, the former...Doctor?

Pardon me for asking...I've heard a great deal of the celebrations of Independence that go on..[He's English, how could he not?]But I couldn't help but notice...You're an American, if I'm not mistaken. Are you from Texas?

[Jake has no idea who you are, but Jake-mun is going to spazz now kthx. <3333 squeeeee]

Well ain't that just a shame.

Yep, that's me. Been helpin' her track 'im down. He's been a mighty slippery outlaw to get ahold of, let me tell you.

[Jake gives a bit of a chuckle at his last question.] Naw, I ain't from Texas. Was born and raised in California, but my family's from deep in the heart of Texas.

[*Sob* He misses Quincey.]

I'm sorry. The asylum business has been keeping my hands tied, unfortunately.

[He's still tracking one patient in particular. She'd been spotted recently, but she was so ordinary that it could've been a mistake.]

I can imagine. Please do look after her...Miss Re-l, I mean.

I apologize for jumping to conclusions but your accent is remarkably Texan for someone who originated from California...How interesting.

[A family trait?]

I'm from London, myself.

Naw, perfectly all right, hombre, yer time's best spent gettin' everybody back where they belong. People from all over been chasin' miss Ripley, me included, now.

[Dr. Seward can't see it over the NV, but Jake nods.] You bet I will. Mighty fine gal, she is. Reckon we could use more like her 'round these parts anyhow.

[His voice sounds slightly more amused, now.] As I said, family's from deep in the heart of Texas. My pa moved to California with my ma, and took the drawl with 'em. Been exposed to it since I was just a lil' shaver.

I figgered that much out, from yer voice.
