Bank Manager - Okay, here we are.
The doors open, and they exit the elevator.
They get off the elevator, and enter a hallway, Bank Manager gets on his radio.

Packie - Now they're in the vault, past the rubble!
Frank fires back at them.
Trevor (on radio) - Everything okay down there?
Frank - Don't worry about us, just get the bricks out.
