[Music throughout - insistent, lively drumming]
All around the world, Ruairi is known as a martyr.
Except Downing Street,
where the phrase they use is "murdering ***".
[Drumming gets louder]
This guy Faust, sells his soul to the devil in exchange for twenty years of glory.
What you're doing here son is Faust in reverse.
Selling your soul for a lifetime of pain.
[Drumming gets louder]
I guess the more we're attacked, the stronger we become.
So does this money go to the IRA?
We were not represented at the function.
Is it the Brits you're talking with or the FBI?
I like being in the IRA
But if there's one thing I'd change it's all the *** killing.
[Drumming gets louder]
It's not Stormont
It's not Adams.
It's not military or political.
What is it?
I can't tell you.
[Drumming gets louder]
I was nineteen.
Standing shoulder to shoulder with a hero in the rain.
Someone pointed you out.
That fellah...
[Drumming suddenly stops]
The big fellah?
(Softly) He's the American.
[Loud drumming resumes]
Get dressed.
The big fellah's on his way.
