I get the old twitch working, and I go..."Well, um... I'm going to break into your house and then I'll kill your dog and set the house on fire. Then I'll dance through your garden naked like some mad, crazed werewolf.And I'll bite and I'll mangle and I'll tear the tongue out of everything that's breathing. Then I'll hurl myself into the sky, the ethereal sky, flaming, like God's darkest angel. And I'll explode into a goddamn heavenly fireball. Boom! You guys wanna see this? l can't wait. Boom". What?

Julie: What were you in prison for, Max?
Max: I was a confidence man.
Julie: You mean a con man?
Max: I um... l don't like that word. Er, "confidence" is a little more elegant. "Confidence" comes from the Greek "fides", meaning faith and belief.
Julie: Greek? I thought it was Latin.
Max: Well, yes, it is... it is now.
Julie: So, essentially, you make people feel good and then you rip 'em off?
Max: Yes. But I was always a little better at the feeling good part than I was with the ripping off part, hence jail
