Just folded up from excitement.

- I wouldn't worry about it.

- What's going on here?

Well, this young fellow

lying here on the floor...

just got the stickup mob single-handed.

Biggest exhibition of nerve I ever seen.

One of them pretty near

crowned the sergeant.

- What's that?

- The one on the roof.

He almost fell on top of him.

Say that again.

His name is Innocence.

He was with the Little Dutch mob.

Slug through the window

got him in the shoulder...

knocked him off the roof

right into our hands.

Move over, mug,

and make room for Marco.
