Trino's mom gets fired and the family needs money for food and rent. Is this a good enough reason to meet up with Rosca for a "job?" (probably robbing the car wash). Why or why not?

Why did I infer that the job at the car wash would probably be a crime?

• We know Rosca robbed Mr. Epifano's little food mart for cash.

• Rosca was going to hurt Trino but now, is making him work with him.

• There's not much reason to think Rosca has suddenly decided to wash cars for money.
