If you could change anything

My feet.
It's way too big.
What would you change about
yourself?
No, it's personal.
Benji:

Nah. I can't.
Benji:

[Sighs deeply]
I'd like to be less observant.
Benji:
yeah, I like to be less sexy.
I'm serious.
Sorry.
I have this thing when,
I can't have a conversation...
With anyone without noticing
all these
micro-expressions in their face.
So, like, I'd be mid-sentence,
and...i can see
this flash of something in their
eyes, or in their mouth...
And...and I could tell what they
are thinking.
And like, she's dickhead
or I don't want to be here
or...
I don't know, just
disappointment.

Well, whatever benji did, I did.
Lawyer: she can't talk like this

Darius: you know what I'm taking
about bruv.
It's your girl, bruv.
If you didn't meet this
dumb bitch,
bruv you wouldn't be in a
situation at all.
Think about it bruv.
Were you in this situation
before?
Only fing your nose is gonna
do is use you,
to get her off the case.
She wouldn't do that.
How do you know that?
How do you even know if she even
snitched on you already?
Shut the f*ck up bruv.
Oh you're a badman now, yeah?
You're a badman now, yeah?
Make sure you're a badman in
jail, you know.
So when someone comes to cut
your face, bruv,
this fake sh*t ain't gonna work

And ten mans gonna rush you in
the shower, bruv.
This fake sh*t ain't gonna work.
What I'm trying to say bruv, you
