What I want to know, Martin,
:06:05
you're not political,
you don't deal drugs,

:06:07
you're just a straightforward
criminal.

:06:09
Please, God.
:06:11
So why do the guards
follow your car?

:06:13
They can dole it out,
but they can't take it.

:06:17
I irritate them. That cheery
glow about the place--

:06:20
it's the rings,
I run around them.

:06:23
Tell me then, enlighten me.
:06:26
How does a man like you
get to be a man like you?

:06:29
I grew up in Crumlin.
:06:32
You grew up
in Borstal, Martin.

:06:35
For theft.
:06:37
Offaly. 1 965.
:06:41
Seems I'm doing
all the talking here.

:06:44
When I was eight years old,
I stole a bar of chocolate.

:06:49
I was eating it
and I got caught.

:06:51
Policeman kicked the shite
out of me.

:06:53
Told the judge I resisted,
the judge sent me to Borstal.

:06:57
H e said for three months,
but they forgot about that.

:07:00
They forgot about me.
:07:02
N ine years... nine fucking
years getting slapped

:07:08
by men who said
they were Christians.

:07:11
I can still taste that chocolate
in me mouth.

:07:13
You're not knackered, love?
:07:17
You know he once stole
a $20 million Vermeer?

:07:19
Oh, thanks.
H e did.

:07:21
Puts it all down
to a bar of chocolate.

:07:23
Jesus.
:07:26
Tom, this is almost as big
as the Bishop Carney story.

:07:30
Ready.
:07:32
- Is Daddy taking you to school?
- Yup.

:07:34
- Can you pick him up at 2:00?
- I'll call you. Bye.

:07:37
Wait, wait.
What are you forgetting?

:07:39
You're forgetting something.
:07:43
- Bye.
- Bye, Mom.
