I've decided to make a formal complaint
against the guy who beat me.

1:09:15
I mean, i would... i would lose a lot,
1:09:20
right, if i was to give in to these thugs,
and i'm not going to be doing that,

1:09:25
because it'd be worse for me
and for journalism

1:09:27
if i or any journalist was to be intimidated.
1:09:31
That means they've won.
1:09:33
And they're not going to win.
1:09:36
Fuck off!

"The house shuddered and collapsed,
1:09:42
and then the little people discovered
1:09:45
that they were disappearing
into a swirl of leaves."

1:09:55
He's fast asleep.
1:09:57
Thanks for watching him, ma.
1:09:59
What should a girl wear to court?
Maybe the navy.

1:10:04
- This one looks grand.
- Oh, look.

1:10:08
Ah, look at that.
1:10:14
Look at you always trying
to be better than the boys.

1:10:19
That reminds me, you know, of a day -
i don't know how old you were.

1:10:24
You were out playing football and the ball
went over the wall into old man clancy's.

1:10:28
Do you remember him? He was
a very dangerous man. Very violent.

1:10:32
The boys did nothing,
but you, bold as brass,

1:10:35
you marched up those steps
and you just knocked on his door.

1:10:39
- Scared the bejasus out of me.
- You didn't show it.

1:10:43
That's your thing, isn't it?
You don't show your fear.

1:10:47
You know, veronica, sometimes it's wiser
to let the crazy old man keep the ball.

1:10:53
It is, and sometimes
it's braver to just walk away.

1:10:59
Well, i got the ball back, didn't i?
