Just imagine the day-to-day life of the main characters, knowing that law enforcement is hot on their heels and that there are plenty of people who may want them dead (and those people may or may not be in their own crew). They have to live their lives never knowing if today will be the day that they are finally arrested or killed, and never truly being able to trust even their best of friends.

The woman slowly walks down, stops, and creepily stares at Tony. Just as Tony enters the house, he wakes up. NothingIsScarier indeed.
