When he was brutally assaulted By Garda.

You have no witness To connect him To this crime,

And I must insist You release him immediately.

Well, you've had your Reasonable access, And we have the evidence.

Door ! [ cell door unlocks, opens ]

[ door closes ]

Feeling better now, Martin ?

Remember The slight collision In the arcade, martin ?

Careless.

Amateur.

We have the weapons, martin.

We have the money ! We have the bike !

Armed robbery. You're lookin' At twelve years, martin. Twelve years !

And for what ? For pennies.

When I�m inside, I�ll have To admit I was sent down for Stealin' ten "p" freakin' coins.

It's humiliating. Too true.

You're a creeper. It's in Your nature. You'll always Be a bleedin' creeper.

- give up out of that, Will yers, huh ? - it'll always be me hobby.

I want somethin' big.

Humiliate them.

Besides, I�ve got a family To support. So does noel.

If we go down for 12 It's gonna take A lot of money.

Here's what We're gonna do:

We're gonna take O�Connor�s.

[ man ] O�Connor�s, the jewelers ? [ all chattering, shouting ]

Two million In gold and jewels... Waitin' for us.

[ chuckling ]

Doesn't matter to me. I'm goin' down with you.

So gettin' nicked For another job makes No difference, but, uh--

The IRA cased O�Connor�s...

And even With their firepower,

They walked away from it.

The place Is a fortified fortress.

You better believe it.

Get in here, will ya ? [ door opens ]

Who the hell is this ?

Why is he wearin' that In here ?

Go in and lie down for a bit, Tina, will you please ?

Now, youse don't need To know this bollocks,

And he doesn't need To know youse whores.

This gentleman Works in O�Connor�s.

He's kindly offered To help us out. That's very nice of him.

Now, if word of this plan Leaks out, I�ll know Who done it and he'll suffer.

Youse all know the rules.

[ all chattering, laughing ]

[ chattering, shouting ]

Dad. This is the penzance cock, Isn't it ?

- he's won everything. - yeah, he's won five races For me last year.

Still waitin' for him To bring home The trophy, though.

It's going to be hard To leave them all.

People in our professions Shouldn't have families.

It makes us soft.

No way.

I'm not gonna let them Put me away again. Not this time.

It's gonna be A hard rap to beat.

That woman can't identify us, Not with the helmets on.

It's that forensic bollocks. What's his name ?

Donovan. Clever boy-o.

[ laughing, shouting ]

Out, out. Get out.

I don't care If it is your birthday.

Get out of here With that cake, Tina. Jesus.

Whoa ! [ chuckling ] I'm gonna get ya !

[ men hooting, shouting ] [ man ] Go for it, martin.

[ gasping ] [ mutters ]

[ Tina chuckling ] You're mad !

[ door closes ] [ car alarm chirps ]

[ dogs barking ]

I beg the court's indulgence In asking for an adjournment.

I'm assured that dr. Donovan Will recover and is Determined to testify.

The perpetrator Of this heinous crime...

Will be hunted down And brought to justice !

If this wicked person Happens to be in this court,

Let me remind him that Sentences for perverting The course of justice...

Are some of the severest That this court can inflict !

I don't wanna talk to you. [Kenny ] no, I don't wanna talk to you.

We know the type of bomb.

I don't wanna talk to you.

You get it from the Paramilitaries, Probably a renegade.

The IRA won't like this, Martin.

They make their own Inquiries, the provos. You know what that means.

The next time your door Is kicked in,

You'll be fuckin' prayin' It's the police.

I don't wanna talk To you !

That's good, martin.

That's good.

You'll talk to him, then.

Freezin', isn't it ? That's fine.

Next. Thank you. How are you ?

And that's Their weak spot.

[ noel ] Yeah, but look. [ chattering ]

How many ? Just under a hundred.

That's a bit of a bollix.

Yep.

[ martin ] Electrified.

All the windows are alarmed.

Apart from them, Three at the top.

[ camera shutters clicking ]

[ applause ]

[ man ] There he is ! There's Cahill !

[ woman ] what do you know About the attempt On dr. Donovan's life ?

-show us your face ! -take off the balaclava !

[ all shouting ]

Now, that is An unwarranted intrusion of That man's privacy. True.

What's the problem ?

[ man ] There they are ! That's not him.

Over there ! This way, lads !

Before the adjournment, Several members Of the jury complained...

Of being followed And their homes watched.

For the remainder Of this trial, I order the jury to be...

Sequestered in a hotel Under the armed protection Of the Garda.

Jeepers, I'm runnin' out of ideas.

Now, go again, harry. I nick a car On the north side.

Okay. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on.

Do you know What's in the bags ? I know what's in the bags.

Well, What's the panic ?

There's no need for panic.

Any gun that's fired ? Get rid of it.

Make sure your alibis Are rock solid.

And don't expect a woman To lie for ya if you're playin' Away from home.

That's me, jinxed. [ laughing ]

What about your alibi, Martin ?

Ah, get meself home And keep the old case goin'.

We're safe enough. Look for us; We'll be in court.

[ man whistles ]

%%%% [ whistling ]

[ sighs ] Will it be tomorrow, Martin ?

I'll let you know, Gary.

I want you to pull A little stroke for me In court tomorrow.

Exhibit nine.

You will see that The analysis confirms That the paint on the helmet...

Is identical to that On the metal grill In the arcade.

Martin Cahill is a murderer, A drug dealer And a dart board !

He deserves to be sent down For life !

[ chattering ] Order. Order in this court !

Hey !

What's this about ?

I never seen him before In me life. It's got to be A mistrial, hasn't it ?

Mr. Mackie, I will not tolerate This kind of outrage.

I am as outraged As you, your honor.

However, my client Claims no knowledge Of this man.

And I must point out That the accusations Made just now...

Could influence the jury Against my client.

And therefore, I must ask you To declare a mistrial.

Members of the jury, This is a cynical ruse,

And I direct you To disregard what was said.

Are you taking up Study of the law, Mr. Cahill ?

[ gasps ]

See, I�ve been doin' A bit of reading tonight, [ shuddering ]

And it seems that If you weren't in fear Of your life...

When we took the money From you, like, They can't deal me.

What ? Oh, Jesus !

So, If you say in court...

That you were In fear of your life,

I'll have to make sure That you are In fear of your life.

Have you got that ?

Yeah.

You sure ? Yeah.

Not really. I'm used to it.

It's happened a few times. They never shoot.

But they would if you did not Give them the money.

I don't know. I always give it to them.

But surely, A terrifying experience.

Well, I wouldn't say that.

Y-your honor.

I refer to section 23...

Of the larceny act of 1916.

"if the state cannot show That the victim Was in fear of her life,

Then the charge Cannot be sustained."

And I thereby call For an acquittal.

[ murmuring ] [ woman ] An acquittal ? That can't be.

[ man ] a technicality. [ woman #2 ] I don't believe it.

Well done, men ! You've beat them again !

Hey, hey ! Whoo ! Whoo !

Gary says what they were Really after was where The O�Connor loot is stashed.

This anti-drug campaign Is all bollocks. It's just a smoke screen.

Well, you know, imitation Is the sincerest form Of flattery.

All right, boys. [ chuckling ]

All right, now listen, All of youse. Stay away from the drugs.

This is a battle Of wits.

We have to let the people know That we're not Dealers or pushers.

Sir Alfred Beit has recently Announced his intention...

Of gifting it to The national museum Of Ireland.

If you'd like To follow me, please.

How would anyone get The kind of money To buy all this ?
