" (she laughs)" "(whispering)" "Everything is going to be fine, Mr. Charnin." "What the fuck is happening over there?" "Well, it appears the prosecution is having a bit of a meltdown." "You think this is funny, Michael?" "If the next witness testifies to half of what Mr. Charnin thinks he will, our case is fucked." "Relax." "I'm not worried about the witness." "We're prepared." "Oh, we're prepared?" "Fuck you." "If we lose this case, I promise you, you're going under the bus." "This is a bullet you will not dodge." "Your honor, permission to approach." "I think this is good for us, sir." "Take a deep breath." " (judge) Mr Gray, care to join us?" " Yes, your honor." "He knows what he's doing." " He's in town..." " What's going on, Henry?" "It seems the prosecution is missing a witness." "Your honor, if you could just grant us a brief continuance," "I can assure you that we can find out what's happened to this gentleman" " and then move forward with this." " Mr Gray, thoughts?" "To be honest, your honor, the prosecution has had ample time to present the case." "Now, I think it's only fair to my client, the patient jurors and to all of us here that if the prosecution has no other available witnesses, we should move to summation and present to the jury." "(prosecution) Your honor, we have been trying to contact this witness all day." "I spoke with him personally last night." "He will be here, it's just a question of time." "Your honor, please." "I don't know what the fuck you did in there." "I don't want to know." "Maybe the gods are just continuing to smile down on you, but if this guy doesn't show up tomorrow, the judge will throw the whole case out." "Let's just hope he doesn't show then." "Mr. Charnin, you're in good hands." "This way, sir." "Have a nice day." " You're gonna win this, Michael." " You better believe it." "So, are you going back to the office now?" "No, I..."

"Why don't you make a quick round, clock out early and have dinner with the missus." "Thank you, sir." " Superintendent Joseph Sands." " Michael Gray." "We know who you are." "I came down here to greet you personally." "We don't get the big stars out here much." "Well, I'm not a big star, sir." "I'm just very good at what I do." "Yeah." "I like to think I am, too." "(Joseph) Sometimes, I think of this as our own little world." "I grew up with a couple of the old-timers here myself." "Your client, Charlie Johnston, I've known him since he was just a boy."

"You're late." "(Michael) Sorry about that." "You'll be happy to know we won the appeal." "You'll be out of here in 72 hours."

"(Sniffs)" "I'm a government official and I'd appreciate it if you'd address me as such, sir." "Have a seat, sir." "Mr Sands, I'm here to do my job because someone in this prison is not doing theirs." " So I'd really appreciate it if..." " How can we help you, Ms Davis?" "The state is doing a check of all facilities." "We're looking into reports of excessive force used by guards on inmates." "Is that so?" "I'll be here as long as it takes, so I'll need full access to the facility and all prison records." "(knocks)" "(knocks again)" "Hey." "Oh, fuck." "(glass smashes)" " (man) Hey, baby!" " (man 2) Hey, baby, you want a ride?" "(tires screech / horn blares)" "(indistinct announcement over PA)" "You OK?" "What's going on with the appeal?" "There's no appeal, Michael." "What?" "Why not?" "The partners are distancing themselves." "Mr Lieber is afraid supporting you reflects negatively on the firm." "You must be kidding." "It was completely circumstantial evidence." "The only witness they had admitted to not liking me." "You were the only two people in a locked room." "You hear from your wife?" "Ex-wife." "The papers went through the day of sentencing." " I wish I could do something." " Get me out of here." "I'm so sorry, Michael." "I..." "I can't do this." "I guess I'm not much of a "stand by your man" kind of girl." " Hey, pretty lady." " Hi, Ray." " Bossman's expecting us." " Sure, go right on in." "(Joseph) Thank you, Ray." "You sure you don't want me to stick around?" "I mean, I wouldn't want him to molest you or anything." "No, I think we'll be fine. (laughs)" "Be right outside." "Have a seat." "I think you'll be more comfortable on the couch." "So, what happened the night Charlie was killed?" "Why did you do it?" "I didn't." "You go to church, Mr. Gray?" "Occasionally." "Well, I'm betting it's closer to never." "Let me tell you a story... that I heard in church on Sunday." "This woman is driving home and she sees a snake on the side of the road, half dead." "She decides to take it home and nurse it back to health." "She carries it outside to set it free and the snake bites her." "She's lying there poisoned and dying and asks the snake, "Why did you bite me?"" "And the snake says, "I'm a snake." "It's what I do."" "I just think one of your snakes finally bit you." "What is thanatophobia?" "Excuse me?" "Your file says you suffer from thanatophobia." "What is it?" "It's..." "It's a fear of death." "But we all die, Michael." "I have a little theory about death." "You want to hear it?" "Does it have anything to do with snakes and churches?" "Death is a motherfucker." "Death doesn't care who you are, or who you're pretending to be, and you have cheated your whole life." "You've been pretending and cheating and winning." "And you can't cheat death." "That's what's so scary to you, Mike." "And you know it." "Now, I'm going to try to help you with this phobia." "We have a very creative rehabilitation program." "(Joseph) Charlie, despite his personal shortcomings, was a real asset to this prison." "We get a lot of bodies sent to us from other facilities in the state, even some overflow from the local funeral home, because we have a top-notch embalming facility." "Ray will get you situated down there." " I don't think this is a good idea." " I do." "The smell gets to you at first, but you'll get used to it." " (Michael coughs)" " You'll get used to it." "This is Mr. Jefferson over here." "He's gonna show you how everything works." " I can't do this." " Whoa, whoa, what are you talking about?" "Sure you can." "Big hotshot lawyer like yourself, you can do this." "Now come here." "Turn your ass around and do it." "You don't understand." "What the warden told you is..." "It's a phobia." "It's a medical condition." "It's not..." " I can't." " No, no!" "Wait!" "Wait." "(screams)" "Help me!" "Help!" "Oh, Jesus!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "(Ray laughs)" "Oh, my God." "You OK, buddy?" "Huh?" "You OK?" "(laughs)" "(Ray) Come on!" "Move, move, move." "(gunshot / child screams)" "(Ray) Get up." "Come on." "Go!" "Go, go, go." "Go!" "(door buzzer)" " 213, locking." " (door buzzer)" "(Ray) What's this all about?" "Just running a preliminary investigation." "Why do you want to talk to me?" "Well, we're talking to everybody." "You ever hit a prisoner, Mr. Clement?" "It's a prison." "You know?" "They get rough with us, we get rough with them." "All I want to do is try to make it home at the end of the day." "How about you, Ms. Davis?" "You ever been in a prison?" "I mean other than the executive offices like this." "It's hell in there." "You understand?" "Please remove your hand, Mr. Clement." "It's a whole other world." "(Ray) Different rules of survival." "People go real crazy, fast." "(toilet gurqles)" "Everything you thought you knew starts to come undone." "Pretty soon it's just you in your cell." "That shit will eat you up." "(toilet gurgles)" "You ever feel like you've crossed the line with a prisoner?" "No." "People are in here for a reason, Ms. Davis." "They get what they deserve." "Some just get a little more of it, that's all." "(distant child cries)" "Help!" "(man) It's a life choice, don't you think?" "A person can't cover themselves in this kind of hate without expecting a beating." "Now I'm no psychiatrist, but most of the men who come in here are already broken." "That stuff that you're looking into, the fights, the suicides, the beatings, the murders, these men come in here dead." "Their bodies just don't know it." "(guard) Excuse me, Doc." "Found him in his cell alone all beat up like this." "That's a nasty cut." "Do me a favor, Frank, and secure him." "I've got about 15 more stitches here to do." "Thanks, Doc." "In here." "You think a guard could have done that to him?" "A guard, an inmate, anybody could have done that." " Can I talk to him?" " Knock yourself out." "I wouldn't get too close, though." "Sometimes the restraints don't hold too good." "Hi." "I'm Audrey." "I have to get out of there." "Where?" "I didn't kill that man." "I didn't." "I can't go back in there." "I'm going to die in there, too." " They want me to die in there." " No." "Help me." "I see you've met our new star resident." "I was just interviewing Dr. Engel." "Awful far away." "Not a very intimate conversation." "I came to check on you, Michael." "I heard you had an incident in your cell." " L can't go back in there." " Well, it's a prison, Michael." "Unfortunately you really don't have much say in where you go." "I worry about you in gen pop, son." "I worry for your safety." "Please." "I'll tell you what." "We can take it slow." "Maybe take a couple of turns in the yard." "If it works out OK, maybe we can put you back in the general population." "I mean, maybe I'm wrong." "Maybe you're stronger than I think." "You just been sold." "What?" "(prisoners shouting in distance / door buzzer)" "Try to get some sleep." "Face the wall and put your hands through the hole." "(gunshots / child screaming)" "Help!" "Shut the fuck up!" "Audrey Davis." " One second." "I'll get the gate." " Thank you." " (Michael) He's young." " Yep." "Now, there's a few steps to this." "First you got to drain the blood." "Get the other needle." "Stick it in the base of the neck right there." "That body just moved." "(air escapes)" "Takes time to die." "First the heart stops, then the brain goes." "The cells and everything, skin and bones, they live on until waste product builds up and kills them, too." "Sometimes takes hours, sometimes days." "Nothing to be scared of." "Come on now, son." "Stick the needle in the neck." "You've got to press harder to break the skin." "(Coughs)" "There you go." "After the blood drains, you want to hit the switch and that'll start pumping the embalming fluid in." "Sometimes they puff up because the chemical gets stuck somewhere." "Just push it down and smooth it out." "OK?" "Sometimes the eyes pop open." "If you've got a burial, don't worry about it." "This guy, though, there's going to be a viewing." "Last thing we want is for his grieving widow and kids to be giving him one last kiss goodbye and his eyes pop open." "Don't worry." "Charlie was the same way when he first got here." " I didn't kill Charlie." " OK." "I shouldn't be here." "But you're here, aren't you?" "This is the only way to get through to the old block." "They shut down the walk because of mold." "They pulled almost everything out." "I guess they figured nobody ever wanted those old files." "Everything since the prison started, back in the late '20s, is in there." "But of course there might be water damage and whatnot." "So the guard station is at the end of the hall." "The file room is up on the left." "There's usually someone posted in there, but in case the guard went out for a smoke." "Are you not going the rest of the way?" "I've got work to do, and there's mold up there, so I don't want to get sick." "Lock up when you leave." "Was Charlie crazy?" "Everybody's crazy." "The day he died, he told me I was next." "He said, "You're next."" "Then he grabbed my hand and my pen and he slammed it into his own neck." " Don't be weak." " What?" " When the time comes, don't be weak." " What are you talking about?" "What do I do?" "Stand the fuck up." " Jefferson." " How you doing, Six?" "You know." " How you doing?" " Get your fucking hands off me." "He's coming on kind of strong." "I'll see you around." " You see what he did to my arm?" " (they laugh)" "Sick fuckers." "Thanks." "That boy just touched you in the face and all you did was tell him to stop." "You should have been on his shit." "That was a test and you just failed." "You better get right with where the hell you at, son." "(mutters)" "That's 2000. 1997..." "(distant scraping)" "(whispers) On facility death records." "Shit!" "(cries out in pain)" ""inmate 350096 was found in cell 213..."" "(distant bang)" "OK." "Sorry." "I though you might need one of these." "Those don't usually come on." "What do you want from me?" "How you doing, pretty?" "Where are the guards?" "I told that fool he could take a break." "Hey!" "You're my bitch now, gunner." "You move when I say you move." "I heard you killed that short eyes with his own pen." "I like that." "Get him off, then you kill his shit." "(chuckles)" "You going to try to get me off and kill me, too, pretty?" "That what you gonna do?" "(corpse stretches)" "What the fuck was that shit?" "This ain't done, faggot." "Pretty motherfucker." "You're still mine." "I'm coming for your shit." "Believe that." "Fucking voodoo shit." "(scraping)" "(whimpers)" "(grunts)" "What do you want?" "What the fuck do you want?" "(chokes)" "Open 213!" "Open it!" "(child screaming)" "(guard) Thank you." "You don't suppose I could take it with me?" "No, ma'am." "(Audrey) 90% of all suicide victims in this prison had their murder sentence pled down or reduced." " (Joseph) And?" " And you don't find that a bit odd?" "People celebrating their newfound freedom by committing suicide." "Well, maybe guilt set in." "Maybe." "I'd like to look at your staff's personal histories." "Alcohol issues, domestic violence, traffic tickets." "And I want to interview the inmates." "Starting today." " You sure you want to do this?" " Yep." "What do you hope to find?" "(door buzzer)" "Oh, shit." "This is not good." "It's supposed to be locked down." " Let's get out of here." " I'm fine." "It's not you I'm worried about." "Hey, back in your cell." "Let's go." "Back in your cell!" "(prisoners call out)" " How you doing, kiddy?" " You heard me, get back in the cell!" " Move, move!" "Go, go, go!" " (repeated buzzer)" "Back in your cell!" "Back in your cell!" "OK, get that door open right now." "Hey, Doc." "Got a patient for you." "Ms. Davis, what's happened to you?" "She cut her arm." "It's nothing." "It's just reopened, happened days ago." "Have a seat." "We'll take care of you." "Keep it elevated." " You know your friend is back." " Excuse me?" "Gray, the inmate that you met last week." "He tried to kill himself." "It's like I told you." "Some of these men break quicker than others." " Where is he?" " He's down the hall to the right." "He's heavily medicated." "You won't get much out of him." "He's restrained." "But then you know the rules, don't you?" "(yell / thud)" "(man screams)" "(Michael) He does that sometimes." "The doctor told me what happened." "I didn't try to kill myself." "Mr. Gray, if someone tried to hurt you, one of the guards or one of the inmates, you have to let me know." "We can put a stop to this." "I don't think you can." "(squelching)" "Mr. Gray, listen to me." "Mr. Gray." "It's in my cell." "What is?" "What's in your cell?" "The Seat of Satan." "(door buzzer)" "(Frank) SW Pm" "Excuse me, Father." "I have an inmate who wants you to hear a confession." "Sure." "Of course." " Well, that's it, guys." " Thanks, Father." "Appreciate it." "(door buzzer)" "(door buzzer)" "When was your last confession, son?" "I don't go to church." "(Michael) What does that mean?" "Satan has asked to sift you as wheat." ""Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you as wheat."" "It's the origin of "Simon Says"." "I don't understand." "(priest) Before the Devil can tempt a soul, he has to ask permission from God." "This is his request." "The wheat is your soul." "It will be tested." "But the important thing to remember is that if God does give the Devil permission to tempt someone, he also provides a way out for the chosen." "(Audrey) "I know where thou dwelleth, where the Seat of Satan is."" ""Enters earth through hell."" "Revelations... 213." "(priest) ls there something you'd like to confess?" "(indistinct announcement over PA)" "(breathes heavily)" "You look awful." "(Sobs)" "Thank you for coming so fast." " Did you talk to him?" " Yeah." "What did he say?" "He said to tell you he did what you asked him to do." " You scared him?" " Yeah." "I scared him." "You had a witness killed." "Don't worry about the witness." "(child screams)" "He was supposed to scare him." "Stop him from testifying." "That's all I asked." "That's all I asked." "The whole family was murdered." "I'm going to die in here." "(gentle snoring)" "Good night, fellas." "Get some sleep." "(laughs)" "(girl) She made her clothes for you." "(laughs)" "I didn't kill you." "I want Michael Gray's complete file." "And I want to see cell 213." "(door buzzer)" "(door buzzer)" "Stepping, 213." "(door buzzer)" "He'll be out of the infirmary tomorrow." "You thought you'd cure his thanatophobia by giving him work in the morgue?" " I'm sorry, are you talking to me?" " Yes." "You thought you could cure a phobia of death by sticking an inmate in a morgue?" "How did you learn to swim, Ms. Davis?" "Did you wade in?" "Or did your daddy just throw you in?" " He threw me in." " Well..." "He was drunk at the time." "I'm sorry to hear that." "Mine, I'm glad to say, was a lot more sober choice." "And you thought solitary would also help?" "Both for his safety and the safety of others." "This is a world of order." "No, it's not." "Why do you think you are here, Ms. Davis?" "What do you mean?" "Do you think you're here to save Mr. Gray?" "I think I'm here to make this prison a functional facility." "But you like him, don't you?" "I don't even know him." "This is a man who stabbed his client in the neck four times." "This is a man who set six murderers free in two years." "Oh, you have a thing for the bad boys." "You want to talk about that?" "Was drunk daddy a bad boy?" "Maybe yelled a little." "Maybe hit you from time to time." "Your guard was the only witness on the Gray case." "A guard with a history of drinking." "A guard who's been brought up on seven charges of excessive force in his seven years of being at this prison." "None prosecuted." "A guard who said..." "It's right here." ""It's a whole other world, with different rules of survival."" "He put Michael Gray in here." "He's doing this to him." "Mr. Michael Gray, attorney at law, did this to himself." "You know, if you want to off yourself, there's all kinds of good shit in the morgue." "Knock you out, kill you, whatever you're looking for." "None of the side-effects of hanging." "I think I know why I'm here." "Is that so?" "I'm seeing things." "People." "Same thing happened to Charlie." "It just took him longer." "He was in that place for more than a year before it started working on him." "Seen it again and again." "All I know is, they put you in that cell, you ain't never coming out the same again." "If you ever come out at all." " She come by yet today?" " No, not today." " Maybe she left." " I doubt it." "What do you think she's looking for?" "Hell if I know." "A person can find what they want if they look hard enough." "Even if it's not here." "Are you OK, Ray?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "I mean, with you and Julia." "Yeah, sure." "Look, do me a favor." "If our little government lady shows up, give me a call." "Sure thing." "Jefferson." "Let's go." "Back to your cell." "I should stay here and finish up." "The kid can't do this shit by himself." "Looks like he's gonna have to, doesn't it?" "Now move it." "Finish up." "Someone will be by for you." "(Ray) Come on!" "You ain't going to act up on me now, are you, bitch?" "Your boy Ray gave us some private time." "It's you and me now, pretty-pretty." "I mean, that ass done been paid for." "It's got nothing to do with me." "Oh, yeah, well, you're non-refundable." "I don't like it up in here." "All this death in one room and shit." "But if I don't turn that ass out soon, that don't look too good on me, you know what I mean?" "(laughs) Am I making you nervous, pretty?" "Oh, baby, you ain't got to clean that up for me." "I like it messy." "Damn, that shit smells rough!" "Goddamn." "Ew!" "You know what, while you down there, you want to take a little something?" "(yells)" "Go to sleep." "Go to sleep." "You don't think I'll do it?" "(Six struggles)" "(Michael) That's it." "That's it." "Come on." "Is that good enough?" "Is that good enough for you?" "I do this and we're done." "We're done!" "There we go." " There you go." " (Six struggles)" "There you go." "Here you go!" "You didn't think I could do it, did you?" "See, I can do it." "There are five people in this facility that know the embalming procedures." "One of them was in the infirmary last night." "The other was in iso with an assigned responsible." "That leaves you three." "They found the body propped up in the latrine over by the morgue this morning." "You have five of God's holy seconds to tell me which one of you did this." "Or hell is gonna come down on all of you." "You're all going to solitary until I find out who's responsible." "Don't smile at me." "Don't fucking smile, pal." "Get them the fuck out of here, Ray." "Let's go." "Let's go." "Move." "Now I know you didn't do this, OK?"

"(Michael) I thought I was doing what they wanted me to do." "What who wanted you to do?" "The people that I hurt." "The ones I've been seeing." "(Jefferson) That was a fucked-up thing you did, son." "Anybody telling you to do something like that ain't looking for nothing but to send you straight to hell." "That's the trick here, son." "Fighting all the temptation to become one of them." "Staying human in a world full of animals." "That's the trick." "Our bodies may be gone from the outside world... but we got to hang on to our souls." "You hear me, son?" "We got to hang on to our souls." "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "(lounge music plays)" "(knocks)" "(knocks)" "Mr. Clement?" "I'd like to talk to you for five minutes if I could."

"It's none of your damn business where my wife is." "She's gone, OK?" "She's gone because of people like you." "I know what you're doing." "I know what you're trying to do." "You've got nothing on me." "It was my word against his." "I know what you're trying to do." "The jury picked me." "That's good." "Good." "Hey, Ray." "I thought you went home for the night." "Uh..."

"He tried to kill me, and I think he's come back to kill Gray." "Well, what makes you think that?" "Because Michael Gray did not kill that man." "And Ray is the only one who knows it."
