What happened after he got the money? 19:23.200 --> 19:26.600 He had me walk in front of him, down there to the side exit. 19:26.600 --> 19:28.200 That's when he hit me, I guess. 19:28.200 --> 19:30.800 Side of my head, you can see here where they bandaged it. 19:30.800 --> 19:32.200 Uh-huh.

The bank tellers tabbed the same Ford as the getaway car. 20:16.600 --> 20:19.000 Broadcasted all points on the car, nothing yet. 20:19.000 --> 20:20.400 What time you got, Romero? 20:20.400 --> 20:23.600 Hmm, 10 minutes before.
