- Have you seen Batman?
- I have.
- You know the Joker...
- Yes.
- Wore masks and stuff? He was a bank robber, too.
- And Joker is a
- [Ethan] Crazy!
- cuckoo, crazy cuckoo.
- Yeah, well I wasn't as crazy as the Joker.
- Joker's not really real.
(light playful music)
(chairs clunk)
- Hi, my name's Ethan.
- My name is Helena.
- Helena, my name is Anthony.
- Nice to meet you, Antony.
- Nice to meet you.
- So, what did you used to do in your past?
- I was a football player.
- Really?
- Yep.
- I like soccer.
- Yes, well, it's kind of the same name. Football...
- I like basketball.
- I love basketball.
So, I played in college and then I hurt my knee.
Have you ever heard about addiction?
- No.
- It's a weird... it's a big word.
- A-ddic-tion. Three syllables.
- So, what happened is, I was playing sports,
and I got injured really bad, and then
I was given a medication to help, right, with the pain.
- Mm-hm.
- The problem was is I just kept taking the medication.
And because of my bad choices, I said, "How am I going
"to get money?"
- You're a banker?
- Close.
(laughs)
Very close to a banker.
- Are you a bank robber?
- I was a bank robber.
- Yes.
- How much money did you rob?
- I got 400... thousand.
- So, past 100, past 200, past 300, into 400.
- Yes.
- I've got a question.
- Go ahead.
- You know the car they bring money to the bank?
- Yes
- What part did you rob; the truck, or the bank?
- I robbed the truck.
How did you know all the difference between all the stuff?
- I watch movies.
(Anthony laughs)
- Ah, well, okay, well yes, I robbed a Brinks armored car.
- How you did that?
- I know, I wouldn't do karate.
- You wouldn't do karate, yes.
Say I'm trying to rob the armored truck.
- Yeah.
- Right, and I go up there, and I go, "hyah!"
(Ethan laughs)
- It's gonna take some time to fight, right?
- Oh, yeah!
- Yes. And they have guns, actually.
- What? I thought they have tasers.
They shock the man, and then they call the cops,
the cops take him in jail, and another guy who got tasered
didn't even know what hit him.
(Helena giggles)
- So, because of all that, I kind of knew kind of
the same stuff, but I was like, okay well,
how can I make sure he doesn't shoot me?
- Make him blind?
- Kind of but I didn't want to make him...
- For a minute?
- Make him blind for a minute.
I used stuff called pepper spray.
- You would be blind like this.
- That's right, you can't see anything, but, guess what?
In like a couple minutes, you're going to feel
a little bit better.
- No!
(Anthony chuckles)
I don't think so.
- Well, do you think you'd feel better the next day?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that's right.
- How do you get away with the money?
- I had a landscaper, like a yard worker's, outfit on
with a wig, and I ripped all of this stuff off, and I threw
it on the ground in a pile, and I had a totally different
outfit on, okay?
So, what are people gonna say?
"Who robbed the bank?"
"The person wearing the orange did." Da-da-da-ta-da!
- Oh, you were going, you...
- That's right, was I wearing orange any more?
- [Helena] No!
- No, you weren't.
- After I used the pepper spray,
- Yeah?
- I ran across the street, 'kay, now right across
the street, it dips down, and you couldn't see
what was going on.
Well, there was a tiny little stream.
Who in their right mind would ever get on a floatie
to escape from a bank?
- No one.
- No one. So, I got on a giant floatie,
- Uh-huh.
- and there was this cable, and I got on my back,
and I pulled myself upstream really fast.
- Yeah.
- 'Kay, and then I got out, and I had a friend there
waiting for me, and I put the money in the trunk of a car,
and I got inside the trunk, and my friend shut the trunk,
and he drove off, and once I got far enough away
from the bank, I got into a different car and I drove,
basically, back home.
And then I had dinner with my family.
- Wait, so you hide the secret?
- It was a secret, yes.
- Like Spider-Man hide his suit?
- Except Spider-Man was doing good things.
- Yeah.
- Yes.
- Have you seen Batman?
- I have.
- You know the Joker...
- Yes.
- Wore masks and stuff? He was a bank robber, too.
The bad guy landed
- Bad guy? Am I a bad guy?
- Yes. - No, you're not.
(Helena giggles)
(Anthony pretends to cry)
There, there. There there.
- Did you went to jail for it?
- I went to jail.
- So, how long have you been in jail?
- I was sentenced to six years in prison, for...
- And then you learned your lesson?
- I did. Not so much, prison, and that I got punished,
and all the things that happened in prison.
It was that I was away from my kids.
Can I push rewind? Beep!
(makes rewinding noise)
And go back?
- No, you can't.
- No, I can't. I wish I could.
- Yeah, I learned my lesson.
- You learned your lesson? From me?
(Ethan laughs)
That's good. That's good.
That means...
- Never rob a bank.
- You're really good at this.
- I am.
(Anthony laughs)
