It means I'm charging you with those, okay? >> now I understand. I understand. Okay, I just like to be transparent, that's all. Okay, so I'll shut this door for right now. Uh it's going to take a second for the female to get here, probably, and then she'll take you out and do a custodial search of you. Okay. I'm just moving these purses. And then I'm going to shut it, so I don't want to hit your elbow or anything. Can I Can you push this for my elbow? Push what? My elbow. Like that? Yeah, caught my elbow. Oh, yeah.
