• John Anglin : Hey, how's it going, Frank?

  Frank Morris : Well, the Anglins. What are you guys doing, just dropping by?

  Clarence Anglin : Yeah, thought we'd pay you a visit.

  Frank Morris : Gonna stay long?

  John Anglin : Nah, not long. Only about fifteen or twenty years.

  Frank Morris : Why the Rock?

  Clarence Anglin : We were going over the wall in Atlanta when we encountered a minor problem.

  Frank Morris : Such as?

  Clarence Anglin : They saw us.

  Frank Morris : Yeah, that do present problems.

  Clarence Anglin : So they shipped us to Leavenworth.

  John Anglin : Yeah, but we didn't like the accommodations there, either. Warden said he knew just the place for us. Alcatraz.

  Clarence Anglin : Is it true no one's ever busted out of here?

  Frank Morris : So they tell me.

  John Anglin : Jesus. I wonder what I'd be like after fifteen years here.

• Clarence Anglin : What movie is playing this week?

  John Anglin : Some cowboy piece of shit.

  [goes into Italian-American voice] 

  John Anglin : 'ey, least dey could show was a gangsta movie!

  [laughs] 

  Frank Morris : I may have found a way out of here.
