Joe Pistone
我：我从小在意大利人社区长大，认识黑帮分子，对街头很熟悉。这使我进入FBI后，能够胜任卧底工作。我在赌博方面也很适应，因为我从小就接触这些。我不害怕与黑帮分子相处，因为我从小就和他们一起长大。为了打入盗车团伙，我学习了如何偷车。我在法庭外被我送过车的女人的妻子调戏。为了卧底，我需要一个对黑帮有吸引力的职业，而且不能是暴力的。我选择珠宝窃贼作为卧底身份，因为这不涉及暴力。为了扮演好珠宝窃贼，我必须学习钻石和宝石的知识，以及开锁、撬保险箱和解除警报系统。为了卧底行动，我以Donnie Brasco的身份租公寓、买车，建立起一切。你不能直接走进黑帮，必须先露面，让他们看到你。为了避免暴露家庭情况，我编造了自己是孤儿的背景。卧底工作是7天24小时的，必须随时保持在线。我在黑帮场所只点饮料和食物，从不喝多，也不做自己不习惯的事情。为了表明自己不是主动接近黑帮女友，我特意让酒保作证。通过一系列事件，我让黑帮分子知道我是个街头混混。黑帮分子不按常理介绍自己，这对我来说是一个线索。为了试探对方，我主动拿出钻石，并以低于市场价的价格出售。
