MANNY PACQUIAO, PROFESSIONAL BOXER: I have to prove in this fight that, you kn ow, he 's w rong.

NARRATOR: From the Philippine Islands , to the mountains of Mexico City, to the California coas t, to where it all s tarted -- a b oxing ring

on the Las Vegas Strip.

This is "24/7: Pacquiao-Marquez."

(MUSIC)

NARRATOR: Three hundred thousand people live in Baguio Ci ty, the official sum mer capital o f the Philippines. And on a recent rainyday downtown, many of them knew exactly where their mos t famous part-time resid ent was s pending his afternoon -- on Nagui lan

Road, inside the Cooyesan Hotel and Plaza, at the shapeup boxing gym, where the walls inside are a tribute to him.

Manny Pacquiao is m any things to many people. For now, he's a prizefighter in the mid st of a 10-week training cam p for the 59th bout

of his professional career.

PACQUIAO: I always am having fun in training, in boxing. And I think it's because boxing is m y passion .

FREDDIE ROACH, PACQUIAO'S TRAINER: Everything in Manny Pacquiao's life is because of boxing. And he knows that, and he

understands that. And it's s till what he does best. And he hasn 't forgotten that.

Manny has a way different edge in this training cam p so far. The way he started training camp this time early and what he's doing sofar, I see a different Manny Pacquiao.

NARRATOR: It's an intensity already apparent in today's sparring s ess ion.

(SPARRING SESSION)

Afterwards , as the workday winds down, another sparring s ess ion offers s ome thing of a diversio n. Two Pacquiao subordinates

gloving up, for better or worse.

PACQUIAO: We have Mike Tyson look-alike. And we have a Philippine assassin.

(LAUGHTER)

ROACH: There's only like four of us that really have a job in the entourage. But, you know, the entourage is probably 50 deep at thistime and those guys, you know, their job now is to entertain Manny.

PACQUIAO: OK. No hitting below the belt. And when I say break, break. OK? Box!

(MUSIC)

ARIZA: This is Manny's world. So, he's the referee. He's the m atchmaker. He's the prom oter.

PACQUAIO (translated): If you don't throw a real punch, you two will be disqual ified. Come on ! Come on!

I want them to feel how hard boxing is .

Five thousand for a knockout!


3/12



Their punches came from other planets.

Box, box, box, box!

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The fight is terrible, man.

PACQUIAO: It's kind of a disappointing box. So, it's a draw.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

NARRATOR: Nearly 9,000 miles away from the Philippines, you'll find the political, financial, and cultural center of Mexico.

(MUSIC)

And the largest metropoli tan area in the entire western hemisphere.

But in Mexico City's Iztacalco neighborhood, you'll also discover a small tight-knit group that comes to work every day at the Romanza

Boxing Gym to help Juan Manuel Marquez train -- which is just the way he l ikes it.

(MUSIC)

MARQUEZ: I think we've got an indis pensable group of people on this team. Why would we need peop le who can't help us with

anything? Everyone has a clear role.

Nacho Beristain is still m y trainer. Raul De Anda is my assis tant. Jose Luis Zaragoza does m itts with me. The team is the same as

ever -- and that's the way we like it.

NARRATOR: They are a group of m en with faith in one another, as well as conviction that a long-awaited third bout wi th Manny

Pacquiao will at las t deliver the right result.

NACHO BERISTAIN, MARQUEZ TRAINER (translated): Boxing is traumatic, difficult. But Juan enjoys it, because on the other side ofthe chessboard, he's facing the champion of the world.

MARQUEZ: The boxing community sees Manny Pacquiao as the best pound-for-pound fighter. I think that's why I want this fight, why

I've always wanted this fight. He knows he has n't beaten me decisi vely and it's like a thorn in my side that I want to pull out. Because Iwant to do my job and I want to m ake it clear who really won.

NARRATOR: Seven years ago , when they first met in Las Vegas, they were the two bes t featherweights in the world. High action was

expected. High drama ensue d.

BERISTAIN: He came out full of confidence, too confident, and he was going to give Pacquiao a boxing lesson, but suddenl y the arena

fell on top of him. FIGHT COMMENTATOR: Third knockdown of the first round. And I'm not sure Juan Manuel will be able to get up.

NARRATOR: Despite three first round knockdowns, Marquez did find a way to make it to the bell, and soon, after, launched a

counterattack.


4/12



FIGHT COMMENTATOR: In round 1, Manny Pacquiao suddenly shut out the lights. Now, they're gradually coming back on.

MARQUEZ: From then on, I could m easure his speed. I think that the first round was a shock for me. It helped m e keep him from

connecting with the same power he had in the first round.

PACQUIAO: I'm amazed because after a few rounds, he fights back and, you know, he was still s trong.

FIGHT COMMENTATOR: Fire against fire. Down the stretch. Pacquiao's left, Marquez's right.

NARRATOR: They had seem ingly exchanged punches without pause for 12 straight rounds. And when the violent showcaseconcluded, the scorecards rendered a draw.

NARRATOR: A rematch wouldn't occur until 2008. But once back in the ring, Marquez and Pacquiao imm ediately picked up where

they'd left off.

FIGHT COMMENTAOR: Left hook for Pacquiao. Big punch from Marquez to punctuate the second round.

PACQUIAO: He caught me in the s econd round. But I can handle his power.

FIGHT COMMENTATOR: Down goes Marquez on a straight left hand. Perfect shot by Pacquiao.

ROACH: Down he goes ag ain. And I was surprised that he'd get up? No. I mean, we've seen this guy before. So, we know he has no

quit in him.

FIGHT COMMENTATOR: Pacquiao trying to search and destroy, Marquez trying to shock him with counterpunching.

One more right hand for Marquez. One more combination for Pacquiao. They trade shots down the stretch.

Hell of a fight. I'm calli ng it another draw.

ROACH: You know, if you as -- if you go ask 100 people who won that fight, you might get 50-50. You know, the thing is, I felt my guy

did enough to win the fight, and I thought the knockdown was the icing on the cake.

FIGHT ANNOUNCER: The winner on split decision, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao! MARQUEZ: We thought we won the second fight. We

won by two or three points. To have won those fights wou ld put me where Pacquiao is now.

NARRATOR: And as Philippine Air flight 102 touches down in Los Angeles, there is more telling display of what Manny Pacquiao's li feis like now, and the scene that greets him in the terminal.

He announced his flight number on Twitter, and hundreds ans wer the call. To be part of an arrival is a si gnal for both fans and fightersthat Pacquiao-Marquez is fast approaching.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

NARRATOR: Every morning at the Romanza Gym, before Juan Manuel Marquez arrives, Nacho Beristain trains the latest generation ofMexican boxers.


5/12



BERISTAIN: Left, right, hook to the li ver.

JOSE LUIS ZARAGOZA (translated): Nacho is very strict, very set in his ways about how to work. A jab should be like this, and there's

no other way to throw a jab.

BERISTAIN: Feint. Feint, you dumb. Don't you know what feint means? What are you doing, dude?

MARQUEZ: Nacho is the kind of trainer where if he tells you to do something, you have to do it. I like that, I don't like a trainer who

spoils me. Just the opposite, I like a trainer who pushes m e to get things done.

NARRATOR: And as Beristain leads Marquez into his third bout with Pacquiao, the trainer has determined the opponent is no w a

more refined fighter in the ring, a development he feels m ight actually give Marquez an advantage.

BERISTAIN: We're really glad because we're going up against a fighter whose punches were well thrown. It's eas ier than taking on a

wildcat who might m ake som e strange move at any time.

MARQUEZ: Pacquiao, he does n't like to be attacked. But I'm a fighter who uses intelligence, who attacks, who counterpunches, and

uses combinations that others haven't used. I think my style is difficult for him.

(APPLAUSE)

NARRATOR: Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach have long been celeb rated as the premier partnership in boxing. But for the lastthree years, a third m an has also played a crucial role in that success . Strength and conditioning coach, Alex Ariza, joined the team

after Pacquiao's s econd bout with Juan Manuel Marquez, a night when the fighter says felt his body beginning to betray him.

PACQUIAO: You know, I feel after the fight, what I feel is my legs cramping in that fight. I don't know why. After the fight, I'm looking for a

good conditioning coach. That's why I hired Alex Ariza.

ARIZA: Go, go, go, go. Come on. Tight, tight, tight, tight.

I explained to him, you know, if you want to take yourself to the next level, you have to do things differently. You can't do the same things

over and over again.

When Freddie finally gave m e the job of training Manny, he jus t said, I onl y have one request, don't -- the speed.

NARRATOR: The move paid imm ediate dividends as Pacquiao began a steady march up in weight, dominating a series of larger

opponents along the way. The results have made Ariza an indis pensable m ember of team Pacquiao.

ARIZA: Those last two fights were too clos e. But now, he's a whole completely different person. I just don't see Marquez as having any

kind of shot, aside from divine intervention. I would be surprised if this thing goes three rounds.

NARRATOR: Juan Manuel Marquez considers him self a m an of faith. But in training, he relies on more than a higher power to prepare

hims elf for a fight. As such, days in Mexico City begin on a local track before sunris e.

MARQUEZ: I've always bee n an a thlete who takes things serious ly. I throw myself into what I'm doing. I'm an athlete that doesn't like to

lose.

This is what keeps m e competitive. It keeps me go ing in this sport.


6/12



NARRATOR: Time can be a curious factor in the lives of fighters. While careers can las t decades, legacies are generated by just ahandful of nights over that span.

Seven years have pass ed s ince Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez first exchanged blows in the ring, and three years s incethey last touched gloves -- separated by just a few numbers on the scorecards.

Now, suddenly, just three weeks remain. Until one m ore night in the ring again puts their legacies up for review.

(MUSIC)

PACQUIAO: I feel confident in myself. But I'm not underestimating him. MARQUEZ: What's important is that he knows me and I know

him. Everything is there in the m iddle of the ring. Without blood, there's no fight.

ROACH: Another close de cision i s not going to be satis fying to me. I want Manny to knock this guy out and shut him up. Clo se the

book on this.

NARRATOR: Stay tuned for another episode of "24/7 Pacquiao- Marquez."

And don't miss the big fight, "Pacquiao-Marquez 3," Saturday, November 12th, live on HBO Pay-Per-View.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

NARRATOR: The word "dynamite" derives from the ancient Greek term for power. And in boxing, power can come from a variety of

sources. There is the very physical combination of strength and adrenaline, but also intangible em otional elements like the pursuit ofvengeance alongside victory.

Vengeance is what the fighter they called "dynamite" is seeking. Power is what he plans to use in the ring to attain it.

At the Romanza Gym in Mexico City, another day of sparring is in store for Juan Manuel Marquez. The pair of stand-in opponents are

familiar. The objective for the workout is to spotlight a skill that's b een crucial for the fighter over his two-decade career.

MARQUEZ: Now we are working on buil ding s peed, the training is going really. I think we're doing it the right way.

NARRATOR: Marquez' previous two m eetings with Manny Pacquiao cam e at l ighter weights. But the upcoming bout being fought at a

limit of 144 pounds, the challenge is to bulk up while not sacrificing quickness.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Last week he s eemed really slow, but he was punching hard. With one jab he really dazed me. Now I feel like

he is hitting hard and he's got speed.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I think the weight is helping. It's he lping add po wer to his punches. He is gaining s trength. He see ms lot more

powerful.

NARRATOR: A knockdown in s parring may draw a buzz from the crowd, but Nacho Beristain is uninterested in s uch modes t feats.

BERISTAIN: Those accidents can happen in training. There's no reason to start celebrating yet. Our goal is Pacquiao, he is what we're

working for. What happened here won't bring us any better results in the fight on the 12th.


7/12



NARRATOR: At age 38, s peed is suppos ed to be hard to come by. But the idea here is that resolve can override nature.

MARQUEZ: We're training as if this were my debut, as if this were m y first profess ional fight, we're training that hard.

NARRATOR: It is Jose Luis Zaragoza's job to swa p up the frequently popped bags f or news ones. Lately though, he's no ticed the

problem that could be m ore difficult to repair, the very foundations of the apparatus a re beginning to s how crack, and it appears that

an augmenting combination of speed and power is to blame.

For success ful individuals of all types, multitasking can b e a critical skill. In the spring of 2010, Manny Pacquiao was elected a

congressm an in the Philippines , and for his fight the following fall agains t Antonio Margarito, fusing h is roles as legi slator and boxingstar proved to be demanding and complicated propos ition.

ARIZA: During the Margarito cam p, he was a ll over the place being a congres sm an to him. It was not a joke to him . He was no t goingto be Manny Pacquiao the boxer who became a congres sm an. He was going to be Manny Pacquiao, the congressm an.

PACQUIAO: When I was elected as a congressm an, it's hard to balance back to be a congres sm an. But it's be tter now and when I am

in training, I can focus on the fight in training. When I'm in Congress , I set aside boxing and focus on being a congres sm an.

NARRATOR: So when Pacquiao's battle on November 12th concludes , another will resum e -- taking place thousands of miles away

and fought on behalf of the half mill ion citizens of the impoverished province of Sarangani.

GOVERNOR MIGUEL DOMINGUEZ, SARANGANI PROVINCE: Well, Sarangani is a challenged province. About 6,000 households livebelow the poverty line.

PACQUIAO: I experience that life before when I wa s young. So, whatever success in m y life, my heart is always the sam e when I was -

- you know, when I was young.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We have a hard time. We us ually earn an average $12 a month, but som etimes we earn n othing. He

understands it. He knows that people here a re having trouble.

DOMINGUEZ: If you lis ten and ask the people around the province, he is accepted as being quite successful i n his job and trying touplift and provide opportunities for the people of the province.

NARRATOR: Any progress that the congress man has learned to understand will be incremental. But he has worked to chip away at

poverty with ideas like a cattle distribution program that provides hundreds of rural residents a source of incom e.

There's als o have been advances for fishermen like Benjamin Pacaldo and Felix Javelina, who after years of rowing the wa ters ofSarangani Bay, now, thanks to their congressm an, get an assi st from new m otorized outriggers like this one.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It was our happ iest m oments as fishermen.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It's good because we can get farther out in the water, because we are using m otors now.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: This is great help to poor p eople like us. We m ake our earnings faster this way.

PACQUIAO: I gave them fres h livelihood s o they have incom e everyday to buy food and to survive everyday.

I'm satisfied what I have done being a congress man, but I have a lot of things to do. It's -- take time to accom plish that.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

NARRATOR: Roughly 500 years ago, the Aztecs built what is now Mexico City, in the middle of a lake they call Texcoco. In those times,

the citizenry travelled from place to place by boat. Today, with the lake long ago dried out, the only vestiges of the pas t are the canals of

Xochimilco, a tourist des tination in the southern part of the city, not to mention a cruel rem inder to the locals that there was onceanother way to go about town.

Mexico City traffic is s aid by many to be the worst in the world, with 20 m illion res idents cons tantly jockeying for limited road space,

and fruitlessly lamenting the consequences.

MARQUEZ: Obviously, no one likes the traffic. I don't hate it though, because I love here. But sometimes when you're in a hurry, yes, I

hate it.

NARRATOR: In recent years, the government has es tablished a restriction program to combat smog and congestion and p ermitting

only certain cars to travel on certain days. Juan Manuel Marquez however has plenty to go around.

MARQUEZ: When we're going out as a family, we go in a big truck. For example, that yellow one. When I go to see som eone, or a

special event, I go this one, or else in the red one. And this one I don't drive because it' Ericka's. She won't let me drive it.

NARRATOR: There is one vehicle Marquez hasn't been able to add to the im pressi ve fleet although he is on close terms wi th the

owner.

MARQUEZ: Nacho has this Mustang, a class ic, a '65, it's awesom e. I'd like it if he le ft it tome i n his will, but he does n't want to.

NARRATOR: The cars ma y make life more pleas ant on the road, but at home, there is no desire to es cape the routines of parenthood.

Even during training, Marquez still finds time to help hi s children with their homework.

MARQUEZ: Here you need to simplify it, right?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: No, because these are e quivalent terms, thes e two cancel e ach other out, and these end up equal.

MARQUEZ: The kids have to go to school, they have homework, they have exams, they have to study, and everything at home stays thesam e. I have to go to work, I have to fight, but at home everything remains the sam e.

NARRATOR: On evenings like this, Nacho Beristain has kids to at the end to as well. Tonight, he heads to a l ocal venue to watch agroup of his young Romanza fighters in the ring.

BERISTAIN: I respect them s o much, I adm ire them s o much. And they were the reason I was inducted into the Hall of Fame.

All of them , down to the younge st fighters in the gym, I respect them s o much .


9/12



NARRATOR: And when 21-year-old Vanessa Santiago e ncounters a s tretch of trouble, Beristain sh ows his respect, the only ways h eknows how, by mincing no words in the corner.

BERISTAIN: Boxing is serious . Throw left hooks with s traight rights. Do it or you're going to lose the fight and cry about it later.

NARRATOR: A six-round decision gives Santiago her third victory in four pro fights and offers Beristain the kind of reward he could o nly

find in dusty arenas like this one.

BERISTAIN: You see the development of fighters, later you see them fight and win a world title, it gives me great satisfaction.

NARRATOR: Manny Pacquiao began his career fighting in boxing halls in the Philippines. Then, when he was 2 2, he took a journey

across the Pacific Ocean that changed everything.

PACQUIAO: My first time in the United States, we came to San Francisco. And we decided to ride a bus going into L.A. When we getinto L.A., my manager is looking for a gym that we can workout. And somebody told us that, oh, there is a gym there, a Wild Card Gym.

We went to the gym and we met Freddy Roach that day, and after that, that's the beginning.

NARRATOR: Since that meeting a decade ago, the Wild Ca rd Boxing Club in Hollywood has been Manny Pacquiao's bas e of training.

They set Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays as ide for sparring here. By camp's end, the fighter will have completed 120 hours ofpreparatory combat in all.

ROACH: Manny is one of those guys -- he's not go ing to give you everything in sparring. He's going to give you about 50 percent or 60percent. I mean he's going to s ave the good s tuff for the fight.

NARRATOR: Those on the receiving end of Pacquiao's punches however might have their own take.

Ray Beltran has been sp arring with Manny Pacquiao since 2004 when he was p reparing for his first bout with Marquez.

RAY BELTRAN, SPARRING PARTNER: You can lose your mind, because he'll drive you crazy. He is in and out, right, and hitting there

like with a lot of speed and power.

DAVID RODELA, SPARRING PARTNER: I put it on slow motion today. I told him, slow motion.

NARRATOR: Californian David Rodela is als o a mains tay, having spe nt 12 camps s parring with the champ.

RODELA: They warned me, he is on a good day today. I knew I was in trouble. And then as s oon when I got hit with the first left, I knewit was going to be a l ong round for me.

NARRATOR: Dublin native Jamie Cavanaugh was named Irish boxing's 2011 prospect of the year. For now, education proves hardlessons like this one three times a week.

JAMIE CAVANAUGH, SPARRING PARTNER: Usually, he comes in to just do his work., you know? He comes in and does his work andgets out, and it's pretty awesom e, you know? But today, I seen him different like, he is a bit more, you know, venom, and he seem s

spot-on.

BELTRAN: You look m ore focused, more aggres sive, more intense. Better than all the training camps.

PACQUIAO: You wa nt this fight?


10/12



BELTRAN: Yes. You're hungry.

ARIZA: The way he is right now, we are jus t perfect and, you know, he fought 12 rounds hard with three guys. I think if he had to fight

tomorrow, he would be ready to go. I wish i t was tomorrow, in fact.

PACQUIAO: I feel good, man. I feel like I could spar more.

BELTRAN: You can spar more?

PACQUIAO: Yes.

BELTRAN: You look like it. You are ready to go, to fight tomorrow, you know what I mean?

PACQUIAO: Yes.

NARRATOR: The fight is 18 days away.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

NARRATOR: As instinctual as violent action can be for m en like Juan Manuel Marquez, optimizing the body for comb at is hardly asim ple task. A wide range of training methods make up the difference, including those of the m akeshift variety.

MARQUEZ: I think, as a fighter, you must change. I've always fought as a lightweight. I have to gain weight and somehow I have to getup there, but keep my speed and power.

NARRATOR: Marquez has fought as a welterweight only one time in his career, two years ago against Floyd Mayweather -- aperformance his camp thinks was undone in part by the unusual methods he employed to gain for the bout.

BERISTAIN: The training wa s d ifferent. He was carrying rocks and it changed his natural flexibility. He became a little more s low, as ifhe's los t his explosiveness . to prepare for the fight.

FIGHT COMMENTATOR: Mayweather pi tching an absolute s hutout.

BERISTAIN: All this, combined with Mayweather's great ability and his weight advantage, we didn't stand a chance.

NARRATOR: On his current meas ure up the scale, the fighter has brought a new s trength and conditioning coach into camp, 36-year-

old Angel Hernandez, a graduate of the Texas A&M exercise s cience program, who believes his state-of-the-art techniques will betterprepare the boxer's body to handle extra weight.

ANGEL HERNANDEZZ, MARQUEZ STRENGTH & CONDITIONING COACH: There are a lot of things that he has never done, andtoday, he is doing a l ot of different things and s trategies, and he is really, really acting pos itive on it.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I learned about drills and focusing on the s peed for the hips and the arms and the sho ulders. So, we activate

more muscles now.

MARQUEZ: It's som ething I've never done in my career. I feel really confident, and I think when the time com es, it will serve me well.


11/12



NARRATOR: The overhaul of the fitness regimen includes, to Marquez' delight, the discontinuation of one of his best known andpeculiar training practices, he no longer drinks his own urine.

MARQUEZ: Yes, they saved my life. No. On the advice of my doctor and my physical trainer Angel, and they told us we should stop.

We're looking for what can help m e and if the doctor says no longer drinking it will help, then we'll stop.

NARRATOR: When days break in Los Angeles, the winding roads and s teep terrain of Griffith Park are traversed b y a familiar com pany

of men. It is a morning training ritual that Manny Pacquiao has been completing for a decade, a decade during which he has risen tothe top of the boxing world. And earned the ability to obtain virtually anything in the world he des ires.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: What the hell are these? LED lights?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes, those are the LEDs.

NARRATOR: Like his oppo nent, Pacquiao likes cars. And today, Michael Koncz is making a purchase on behalf of the boxer across

town in Beverly Hills, a Ferrari 458 Italia, sticker price: $300,000.

MICHAEL KONCZ, PACQUIAO ADVISER: We're just ge tting ready to leave in five minutes. So, your car wi ll be there by 4:30. OK, boss ,

thank you.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: A little present for Manny, a little good luck in the fight. Knock him out.

NARRATOR: While the purchase is being finalized, Pacquiao relaxes i n his apartment before his afternoon training ses sion bywatching one of his favorite Filipino m ovies, "Anak ng Kumander," starring Manny Pacquiao.

At 12:30 as promised, the salesman James Dellposo (ph) accom panie s Koncz to the apartment to hand-deliver the keys and the gift

package.

PACQUIAO: This is my movie.

NARRATOR: After watching the film to its conclus ion, Pacquiao heads to the garage to check out his new purchase.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Take a picture.

UNIDENTIFEID MALE: Right now, you're not going to go anywhere. If you step on the gas, it's not going to do anything but rev the

engine.

NARRATOR: He'll christen the car with a drive to the Wild Card for training.

When he arrives, his team is waiting outside of the door, curious for a glimpse of the champ's new ride before work begins.(PRACTICING BOXING)

NARRATOR: Fame and wealth have forever transformed his life. But inside of the boxing ring, he is s till the sam e fighter whowandered into the gym on Vine Street in Hollywood a decade ago.

ROACH: His lifestyle may have changed, and his bank account may be bigger, but you know what, when he comes through the doors

of the Wild Card, he is s till the same gu y. He has a whole country on his ba ck, and if he loses, he has let the whole Philippines down,

and he is not prepared to do that at this point in his l ife.

All right. Fall away.

OK. Good job. Again.

NARRATOR: It would be understandable if everything that they have achieved led them to grow tired of what carried them here. It wouldmake sense if they decided they'd had enough of fighting for a living. They have all of the money they'll ever need. All of the toys they'll

ever want.
