* KickTheSonOfABitch: His murder of a corrupt judge doesn't come across as particularly heinous. Simmons himself is the son of a bitch when Elias decides to do some kicking.

It becomes his undoing when Carter obtains it and when he tries to have one of his buddies kill her, she blows the man away with the weapon and blackmails Laskey with the threat of being framed for the killing.
