Kangaroo Jack

:00:41

Australia...

:00:42

..."The Land Down Under. "

:00:44

Rugged...

:00:46

... remote...

:00:48

... inhospitable and dangerous.

:00:50

Home to 20 million kangaroos.

:00:52

But there is one who is more elusive
and clever than all the rest.

:00:57

And his name is Kangaroo Jack.

:01:02

But my story doesn't begin in Australia.

:01:06

It begins 20 years ago, halfway around
the world on a beach in Brooklyn.

:01:10

That's me...

:01:12

... Charlie Carbone.

:01:14

Three things happened on this day
that would change my life.

:01:17

First, was that my mom met Sal.

:01:20

She hadn't dated much since Dad died, but
I could tell right away she was interested.

:01:25

Why shouldn't she be? Sal Maggio was a
respected member of the community.

:01:29

Well, feared and respected.

:01:32

Well, feared.

:01:33

And that's Frankie Lombardo.

:01:35

Fresh out of Juvenile Hall,
where they named a wing after him.

:01:39

Sal was grooming Frankie
to take over the family business...

:01:42

... a family I was about to become a part of.

:01:46

The second thing that happened
was that I met Louis Booker.

:01:53

Don't tell me.
You got 75 cents in your back pocket.

:01:58

You're wrong.
It's a Captain Amazing compass.
