It was good, but it would have been better to emphasize that the wife didn't think he was very smart and then the hitwoman would verbally confirm it in the end, rather than making the "bitch" comment.

"I don't know. She says I'm not very bright."

and then later

"Your wife was right about one thing - you aren't very bright."
