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.
