2: Manhattan
3: At the time, New York Harbor was called "El Dorado."
4: It was a seething mass of immigrant ships filled with Europeans who had given up on their own country due to social and economic pressures.

15)
1: These immigrants saw a bright future in the New World,
2: but all that awaited them were the same poverty and religious discrimination problems they had suffered through in their own countries.

8: Hey, Luke. come look at this.
9: This must have happened during another gang fight.

19)
1: That guy must have been an absolute fool to take on the Grave Digger, though. What do you think, Luke?
2: I haven't much interest, I'm afraid.
3: We need to hurry it up, or the foreman'll have it out with us again.
4: Hey, wait up!

20)
1: I'll tell you what, I'm really sick of working at this wharf day in and day out.
2: Oh yeah? You should just be thankful you have work TO do.
3: Maybe I'll just quit and join a gang.
4: You in a gang, JJ? Are you kidding me?
5: I ain't kidding.
6: If I join a gang and make a name for myself, I'll be able to get rich and say goodbye to this pathetic life.
7: That's what you call the American Dream!

21)
1: Hey, JJ. Where does the American Dream exist at Five Points?
2: What?!
3: Prostitution.
4: Robbery.
5: Murder...
6: Every crime you can think of has its own parade here.

22)
1: Go back to Ireland!!
2: Get out of America!!
3: Go on, look. Every day, thousands of people come to this land chasing their dreams.
4: But what's the reality?
5: Anyone who isn't rich either dies in a ditch, becomes a beggar, or sells their body.
6: Even the luckiest of bastards can barely make enough money to live on.

8: All that's on their minds is teaming up with politicians and preying on people.

23)
1: The gangs are what's ruining this city.
2: ...alright.
3: Well, either way, a gutless coward like you's got no chance of joining a gang, JJ.
4: Wha...
5: What'd you call me, you bastard?!
6: Hahahaha! C'mon, double time it.

24)
1: Ah, that reminds me. You see what they strung up this morning?
2: Yeah, in the square? Our little Grave Digger.

25)
1: They say that bastard was selling information on us to other gangs.
2: Ye reap what ye sow.
3: And that Grave Digger assassin was the fella that did him in?
4: The Grim Reaper.
5: Ah reckon...he's done over 20 jobs in this past year.
6: He's one helluva hitman.
7: Enough of this bullshit.
8: The Grim Reaper can kiss my ass.
9: C'mon, next! Git yer card out already!
10: Y...yessir, Mr. Kip.

26)
1: Boy am I tuckered out.
2: That old man loves to work me like a horse.
3: See, JJ? Honest work makes you feel much more accomplished than working in some gang, doesn't it?

2: It took her weeks to reach this land.
3: She came here looking for freedom...

6: Can I do 'im?
7: Wait...

4: Heh...heheheh! You scared me for a minute there.
5: jingle...
6: But I can see that unlike the boy, you understand the way this world works.
7: But I guess in order to survive in Five Points, you have to.
8: Hahahaha!
9: C'mon, you bastards, let's go.
