Connor got loose from the handcuffs he was chained to a toilet. He used the toilet to disarm one man, while jumping off a five story building onto another. They turned themselves in and told the FBI it was self defense. The FBI and police let them go and began to call them Saints. After a tip from the Russians who tried to kill them, they took the money, guns and such they fleeced from the murdered mobsters and bought guns and other things they'd need to become hit-men. Thus, becoming vigilantes for God. They team up with a friend, who used to work for the mob and go on a killing spree.

He realizes he is in too far and it is too much, but he believes in what they are doing is just and opts to help them all. During the course of this night they find out this old man, who nearly killed them is their long lost father. The three of them with the help of the police who once let them go, get into the courtroom with their guns, giving a wonderful and powerful speech about worshiping whatever god you wish, just do not rape, steal, kill or they will be there in the shadows, ready to execute you in the name of God. Finally, killing the mob boss who set them up, tortured them and then got away Character Biography: (Taken from Wikipedia for clearest historical purposes) History: Two brothers, Connor and Murphy MacManus, played by Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus, become vigilantes after killing two members of the Russian Mafia in self-defense. Believing they are on a mission from God, the brothers set out to rid their home city of Boston from the Italian and Russian Mafia. Along the way, they recruit their friend and former mob errand boy David Della Rocco, all while being uneasily pursued by FBI agent Paul Smecker. On St. Patrick's Day, Connor and Murphy are enjoying a beer at the local pub with their friends, among them David "Funny Man" Della Rocco. Two Russian "soldiers," whose employers have bought the lease for the building and are attempting to close down the pub, enter. After making a crude joke, regarding one of the mobster's mother, Rocco gets punched in the face, which stirs the brothers into action. Speaking in Russian, the brothers berate the mobsters and a bar fight ensues, with the numerically superior patrons on top. One mobster is hit over the head with wine bottles while the other is tied to the bar and his pants set on fire. The morning after, the armed mobsters seek revenge on Connor and Murphy. Connor is handcuffed to the toilet while Murphy is taken outside the building for his execution. Connor escapes, and in the fight both mobsters are killed. Paul Smecker is an FBI agent He is an investigator of exceptional clarity of mind. While his often eccentric investigative style (he listens, and often dances, to opera while surveying a crime scene) puts off the police working under him, he has an uncanny ability to get inside a criminal's head. He is a homosexual who, contrary to typical sexual stereotypes, is incredibly macho (he mocks one of his lovers as a "fag" for wanting to cuddle after sex). He is called to Boston to aid the Boston police in investigating the deaths of several Mafia figures and drug dealers, and quickly establishes himself as head and shoulders above the local cops in forensic and investigative skill. When he zeroes in on the murderers, two working class brothers who claim to be ridding the streets of genuinely evil people, he finds himself siding with them and allowing them to escape arrest. He also assists them at the end, indirectly. The 'Fat Man' A small scene shows Rocco interacting with his superiors, an underboss played by Ron Jeremy, and the head of the Italian crime family, Papa Joe Yakavetta. The next morning, using the pager from the dead Russian mobster, Connor calls the number and learns of a meeting of Russian syndicate bosses at a Boston hotel. Wearing masks and carrying a variety of weapons and tools, the two crawl through the ventilation ducts of the hotel and accidentally crash through the ceiling into the middle of the mob gathering. Entangled in the rope and hanging upside down, they quickly take out the nine bosses and underbosses, saving the leader (later called "Fat/Fag Man" by a detective) for last. They recite a short prayer and kill him with two gunshots to the back of the head. The brothers place coins on the dead men's eyes. Rocco, in disguise as the hotel's room service deliveryman, then knocks on the door. He had been given a "big break" by Papa Joe, and ordered to kill the top Russian mob leaders at the hotel. He had been told there would only be two Russians present, and was given a six-chamber revolver. When he takes refuge with the brothers, he persuades them to let him join the team due to his connections and knowledge of the habits of his (now) enemies. Escalation Smecker is called in to investigate. Smecker pinpoints the cause as "bad television"; Connor and Murphy appear to have gotten many of their ideas from television. He announces coins were placed over the victims eyes because the ancient Greeks and Romans did this; they believed that the dead had to pay the boatman (Charon) to get across the river of the dead (Acheron or Styx). Rocco is unwilling to believe that his employer could set him up with a death mission. When his friends tell him in a lighthearted manner at a nearby cafe that they had known all along that Rocco's big break was a death job, he becomes enraged and kills both of them, as well as the bartender, before running home in a panic. Rocco declares that he wants to help the brothers hunt down all the mobsters he once worked with, starting with the underboss (Ron Jeremy) who spread the news of Rocco's impending death. The three vigilantes then proceed to go on a series of increasingly violent missions, cleansing the city of the most vicious, merciless criminals. Papa Joe contracts Il Duce ("The Duke," in Italian, and original nickname of Benito Mussolini), the most feared killer-for-hire that has ever been used in the Yakavetta Family. In an epic gun battle, the three barely manage to survive the onslaught of Il Duce, and Rocco's finger is shot off as they struggle to escape the scene. While looking up the fingerprint in a police database, after finding the finger at the crime scene, Smecker recognizes Rocco from when he visited the brothers in the holding cell after the original fight with the Russians. By this time he has found he agrees with their vigilantism, but still feels bound by his duty as a law enforcer. He eventually goes to confession for advice, despite not being religious. Through the chain of events following, he earns the brothers' trust and is contacted by them, agreeing to help them take down Papa Joe. The True Il Duce Later the McManus brothers, Rocco, and Smecker all infiltrate the Yakavetta headquarters to finish off the family. The brothers and Rocco are caught and bound in the basement, while Smecker, posing as a female prostitute, takes out several mobsters. Rocco is shot and killed by Papa Joe. The brothers escape from their chains but are too late to save Rocco. As they say their family prayer over his body, Il Duce arrives and sneaks up behind them. As he repeats the family prayer with them, it is revealed that Il Duce is actually the father of the brothers. He then joins them in their mission to kill all wrongdoers. The Boondock Saints Papa Joe is sent to trial for his many crimes. Though there seems to be plentiful evidence of his crimes, the reporters on-scene anticipate his acquittal due to his "Gotti-esque" demeanor. The trial is forcibly interrupted when the two brothers and Il Duce, aided by Agent Smecker and the Detectives, infiltrate and lock down the court room. After a speech stating that they intend to eradicate evil wherever they find it, they kill Papa Joe in the middle of the courtroom. As the spectators flee from the scene, the brothers and the Duke make their escape. The media dubs the three The Saints, and the movie ends with various people reflecting on the question "Are the Saints ultimately good, or evil?"
