OK, look at me.

Foot down, other foot up.
Wiggle your toes.
I want you to drop down,
give us a big squat, and cough.

In game three of the most famous
chess tournament in history
between Bobby Fischer
and Boris Spassky,
he'd never played before.
Eh?
It means 'son of sorrow'.
If you commit to this,
there's no going back.
If you play this opening,
you're saying
'I'm not interested in a draw.
A draw cannae help me.
This is all or nothing.
This is a fight to the death. '
Now, if you want
to take action...
...then make it count.
No half measures.
'Cause unless you're
planning on fighting plaque,
this is not gonna stop Dave
and his cronies.
Now, son,
I can sort this for you.
But then I'm gonna
need your help on the outside.
To do what?
What do you think?
I'm looking at 20 years
without parole in this shithole.
25, once I sort
your wee problem.
And what if I say no?
Well... Dave has
some very ugly friends.
Both inside
and outside of prison.
You might find you need
something more
than a toothbrush.
Go on.
Get the f*** off me,
you f***in'...!
Get off him, c*nt!
F*** off, Brendan.
This is none of
your f***in' business.
Well, the business model's
changed, Dave.
Go, go, go, go.
Just walk. Walk, walk, walk.
Shut up, c*nt!
Go on.
Keep walking. Keep walking.
Come on. Keep walking.
Get in the cell. Go on.
Go, go, go, go.
No. No, I'm not happy.
I wanted blue
and white and red -
the colours of the bloody
Aussie flag, you dimwit.
We're not throwing
a Tupperware party.
She's our future State Premier.
F***!
F***ing loser.
You got something for me?
Guys. Do you mind?
Sorry, boss.
He says you know the game.
You mean chess?
Which f***ing game am I playing?
Monopoly?
What's my next move?
Pawn to king four.
Get the f*** outta here.
Yeah, he takes the bait,
then his knight's opened up
to your bishop. See?
Right.
The sacrificial lamb.
Yeah.
Josh, give him the suitcase.
Josh, suitcase.

Da?
Look, I know it's been a while, but
try not to drool... it's not a good look.

Hey, do you want a beer?
I'm here to drop something off.
Still, no harm in a beer, right?
That's everything you need.
Cash, phone...
So, um, what's the plan?
Keep the phone charged,
and when it rings, answer it.
Someone will tell you
what to do.
You government?

And I'll chuck in free training.
You want one?
Help you concentrate.
You see that wagon?
That's your target. I want you
to take that out with the M60.
Alright? Short bursts.
It's a bit different when
you're shooting at real people.
Covering fire!
