Dialogue: 0,0:01:45.02,0:01:48.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Or maybe it was fear of the unknown,\Nbecause you had no idea

Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.86,0:02:30.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because the moment I said,\N"Please, can I have a volunteer?"

Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.22,0:03:13.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then, for those of you\Nthat did volunteer,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:43.69,0:03:46.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The fact that what is going on\Nup in your head

Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.82,0:04:54.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I was looking around \Nfor more opportunities,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.95,0:05:01.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It was to start my very own \Nmobile phone unlocking business
