It's emotional to watch it now. I can only imagine. On my own time, look, when I'm missing him. I'll have a couple of scotches by myself. I'll pop that DVD in. And I love seeing John Gotti be John Gotti. I love seeing him be John Gotti. That's it. I love him. And from here up, he's the old John Gotti. You can see it in his eyes. He came to life on that visit. He's lecturing me a bit.

And then all of a sudden, he looks at me and he says... You know something, John? He says, what I wouldn't do, one more time, one more time, and all of a sudden his eyes get wide like a lion about to pounce on prey. One more time to go in that courtroom and teach these fucking punks what a man is all about. To show them what a man is all about.

What I wouldn't do, John, one more time, one more time, he says, and show these fucking guys what this means. He says, you show them, John. You got to show them. I didn't agree with him. I didn't want to become Teflon Don. I didn't want to. I wanted to take the plea. I forfeited many millions of dollars. They destroyed every business I had.

And I figured, and I trusted, and I thought, and again, this conversation is going to almost make us roll into another conversation. Just so you know, just so you know, because there's so much, you need 10 hours to to complete this story. I'm just explaining something to you. So that, his words were, you beat them, you send them packing, they'll never come back. They'll never come back.

And I said, Dad, I don't agree with you. He says, nonsense, they'll never come back, John. Tighten their asses up, they'll never come back. These mutts will never come back, he said. And maybe he was right, but I believe this. He was right in the respect that I said, if I take the plea, I'm not you, Dad. They don't want me. I'm not you. I'll forfeit whatever they need. I'll be home in seven years.

I can raise my children. We can move on. He says, John, these are his words, and they're prophetic. In this respect, he was right. He says, John, once they get you in, they're not letting you go. He says, no, Dad, they don't want me. I'm not a threat to them. You're John Gotti. I'm not. I'm just John Gotti. That's it. I'm the guy who opened the door, who held the door open for John Gotti.

And no, he said, once they get you in, John, they're never letting you go. He was right. They got me in. I took that plea. And I said, I fought a couple of subpoenas while I was in prison. I fought a couple of subpoenas. Because remember, what led us to that point, I had two indictments. I beat one from the bench, and I'm pleading on this one.

I'm using this one to take all the guns away from my head. And I had both U.S. attorneys. When did you ever see that? The representative shot caller for the Eastern District, representative shot caller for the Southern District in the same courtroom, and both stood up. Now, here's my legal team. Jerry Shargell, one of the greatest trial attorneys in New York history.

Bruce Cutler, he's my third seat. My second seat is Charlie Ogletree, Nelson Mandela's attorney here in the States, who helped rewrite the Constitution of South Africa. Now, I have a dream team. I got power. I've got personality, okay? I'm ready to go to war, okay? That being said, he recently passed away, bless his heart. But I'm ready, and my father knew it. I just beat them.

We just beat one case. They got caught in wrongdoing. They got caught. A special prosecutor got fired for creating leaks on my cases. A special agent got fired and rezoned maybe to Juneau, Alaska for destroying evidence because his witness was a pedophile, destroying evidence, shredding notes and destroying evidence. And a special state prosecutor got fired for leaking and destroying evidence.
