08:13,893 -- 00:08:15,884

You're a bunch of big mouths.

The one who did time?

103

00:
08:44,023 -- 00:08:46,893

No, he's not a criminaI.

AII right?

104

00:
08:46,893 -- 00:08:49,095

He was at Febem, but

105

00:
08:49,095 -- 00:08:51,030

HeracIes.

109

00:

It's Greek, RoseIi.

110

00:
09:00,072 -- 00:09:03,009

When he was born,

my aunt caIIed him GonaIves.

111

00:
09:03,009 -- 00:09:04,911

As he was a sickIy baby...

112

00:
09:04,911 -- 00:09:08,014

a heaIer toId her

to baptize him again.

113

00:
09:08,014 -- 00:09:12,041

And she caIIed him NicoIau.

But the boy didn't get better.

114

00:
09:12,118 -- 00:09:15,922

So she caIIed him HeracIes

and he got better.

115

00:
09:15,922 -- 00:09:17,014

Right, HeracIes?

116

00:
09:17,857 -- 00:09:19,825

What do your parents do?

117

00:
09:20,126 -- 00:09:22,117

I never knew my father, ma'am.
