From a Bronx’s Tale

——————————————–
C:
He owes me money.

Local kids:
– Hit him with a fucking bat.
– Knock him all over the block.

Sonny:
Is that the advice you give
the kid, you fucking hoodlums?

Sonny:
Come on. Don’t listen
to these hoodlums.

C:
I’m going to Gino’s.
I’ll be back.

Sonny:
What’s the matter?

C:
This Louie Dumps
owes me 20 dollars.

It’s been two weeks, and whenever
he sees me he keeps dodging me.

He’s becoming a pain in the ass.
Should I crack him one?

Sonny:
What’s the matter?
What have I been telling you?

Sometimes hurting somebody
ain’t the answer.

– Is he a good friend of yours?

C:
– No, I don’t even like him.

Sonny:
There’s your answer right there.
It costs you 20 dollars
to get rid of him.

He’s never bother you again. He’s never
gonna ask you for money again.

He’s out of your life for
20 dollars. You got off cheap.

C:
You’re always right.

—————————————-

I think this applies if your friend doesn’t even like him!

Hopefully its HIS family and not his wifes! That would be a different situation all together…
