"See here," Joyce suddenly said, her voice inordinately high. "See here! You don't need to point that gun at me. I'm not a criminal, you know." She fought to avoid the hysteria she felt coming over her. "You're not," Cribbins said. "But I am. So shut up and do just what I tell you to do."

Joyce, whose car just crashed into two crooks posing as cops, protests the gun pointed at her.
