1:38:02
that all of the windows
are tightly closed?
1:38:07
Yeah, Tom!
1:38:09
- Proceed, young man.
- Well, that's pretty much it.
1:38:13
I mean, the letters kept pouring in
and I began to believe.
1:38:19
To believe
that I could really help people
1:38:22
and that that was more rewarding
than any con that I could pull.
1:38:26
And then I found,
this is the really bizarre thing,
1:38:29
the less I tried to take advantage
of people, the more I got back.
1:38:34
Your Honour,
I lost my programme notes.
1:38:37
Is this where we all clap
for Tinker Bell?
1:38:40
You're blessed
with a con artist's gift
1:38:43
of talking his way out of trouble.
1:38:46
That didn't sound like a compliment.
1:38:48
So how do I know
if your words are sincere
1:38:52
or if they're some cynical attempt
to talk your way out of trouble?
1:39:05
I don't know.
1:39:10
I appreciate your candour,
Mr Turner.
1:39:14
And I hope that you can appreciate...
1:39:17
Would somebody please tell me
what is going on out there?
1:39:26
The Federal courthouse is surrounded
1:39:29
by what appears to be
every mail truck in the Southland.
1:39:32
Outside the Federal courthouse,
traffic is at a standstill.
1:39:36
Tom in jail, no mail.
1:39:43
Your Honour, you're gonna have to
see it to believe it.
1:39:48
There must be 1,000 postal trucks
out there.
1:39:51
That's a damn miracle.
1:39:55
Let go of me.
1:39:56
I am Postmaster General
Preston Sweeny.
