"Hey, hey, Pollo.... 4517 Tell me something, why do you keep fucking things up?" "You can still be saved." "You have a chance still." "ONE chance." "And do you know who is going to give you that chance?" "Father Roque." "Starting today, you will be a team leader." "A team leader that cares about the health, physical and moral, of the other boys" "A team leader, Pollo." "Do you know what that is?" "A team leader is like an assistant to the guards." "Is that clear?" "And not only are you going to walk straight  you're also going to make sure the others do." "What do you think?" "I hope you like it, because if not ... you'll go straight to the prison in Azul." "And you'll never leave there." "You'll rot there!" "You see?" "I knew that we would understand each other." "Very good, Pollo." "The new team leader." "They'll be jealous of you, Pollo." "And they'll give you trouble." "It's just logical, kid." "People on the bottom always cause trouble for the ones on top." "Happy?" "I don't know" "You'll get used to it soon." "But your hair!" "You can't have it like that." "It makes you look like a faggot, kid." "A team leader is ..." "like an officer." "A junior version." "But you're in charge." "Hold still!" "I can tell you now, Pollo." "Be careful of Lupini." "Lupino isn't here by chance." "He was talking to you about God and the Holy virgin   but in reality   he killed a vagrant with a butcher knife." "From here you can see María" "They said that she lost her family." "That she had photos hidden in her room," "and that she had killed her brother." "and that she walked alone through the halls" "They gave her a shortened sentence for having helped a kid so much." "A man abused her, he stole her money ... and he promised to marry her." "Hah!" "But here, one rotten thing makes them all rotten." "Now you know, remember it always." "I hope you are finished trying to be funny." "Bedspreads must be folded at the corners." "And the sheets must be ALWAYS clean." "I will not tell you more than twice." "So watch it." "I have a pacemaker from dealing with kids like you." "Pollo!" "Get him a towel." "Here you are." "You piece of shit!" "What are you doing here?" "Don't you know that you shouldn't be in the guards' rooms?" "They made me a team leader." "I heard." "Sorry, but I cant see you as a team leader." "Come in!" "Close the door." "Sit down." "Are you sure you want to be a team leader?" "They'll give me better food." "and better clothes." "And you think they'll give you these things here?" "Maybe, I don't know." "And you think you can just come into a guard's room now?" "why are you a leader?" "They hook you and they kill you, you know." "And why did you come to tell about me this?" "Because you think I'm going to treat you any different?" "I am no one's friend." "They bring happiness, Lord..." "Singing with happiness, Lord..." "Those who walk through life, Lord..." "Resting in your peace and love..." "They come bringing hope, from a hopeless world..." "From a world that searches but never finds..." "I walk in your love and kindness..." "They come bringing happiness, Lord..." "Singing with happiness, Lord..." "those who walk through life, Lord..." "Resting in your peace and love..." "Where are you taking me?" "I thought you weren't afraid of anything," ".. shitface." "Who do you think you are?" "Huh?" "What piece of shit are you?" "Who the hell do you think you are?" "You're going to ..."

"Where do you think you will go?" "I want to go!" "Sara!" "Mrs Gaucha!" "You're going to rot right here in this room!" "stay here!" "I don't have to take your shit, or anyone's!" "Grab him, Sara." "Leave him to me!" "You bitch!" "Grab his legs!" "Let go, bitch!" "That's it!" "That's it!" "Bitch!" "Hold still, you son of a bitch!" "Hold still!" "Quiet!" "Bitch..." "Search it carefully." "GO through it all.." "All of it, all of it." "See?" "You can be up here, while all the others are praying." "I couldn't care less." "Father told me that you don't smoke." "So... you're a boss but you don't smoke." "No, I don't" "Did you find anything unusual?" "No" "If they steal anything here, you proceed with caution." "Even though you're a team leader, I always suspect everyone." "Understand?" "Yes" "Fear is best ...." "The dark one... we know what he stole." "Watch him for me." "I want to know everything he does." "You see that one there?" "See him?" "That one, watch very closely for me, ok?" "If you need anything, arrange it with Rosa." "I'm going to drown you!" "Talk, shithead!" "We've been following you." "Where did you hide them?" "This will teach you!" "I'm taking you out, got it?" "Are you going to talk now?" "No" "Talk to me!" "You're under our control." "Your friend ratted you out." "Ahh!" "So, you want to get away?" "Trigo!" "Why are you hiding?" "You were going to tell me who the theif is just like that, huh?" "Everyone here is going to learn to be afraid of me, understood?" "And now, you're going to learn." "What were you going to do to him?" "Huh?" "Nothing" "Go to your room, Trigo." "What's wrong with you?" "One, two!" "One, two!" "One, two!" "One, two!" "Come on!" "Push harder, brats!" "Faster!" "One, two!" "Attention everyone." "On your feet!" "Line it up!" "Pollo!" "Take charge, and get them moving." "You're going to leave here rehabilitated!" "Arms out!" "Down, up, down, up" "Down, up, down, up" "Before you came here, there was another boy, named Rulo..." "He also was team leader." "He enjoyed hitting the other kids." "He hit just because he could." "He would get so angry his throat bulged ...." "This is for you." "Take good care of it." "Look at me." "This points north." "Always." "No matter where you move it, the blue arrow points north." "Think hard about what it is to be team leader." "Reciting 'Hail Mary'" "What's wrong?" "What are you saying?" "I'm in charge now, don't you know that?" "Barragán told me about the death of Fuguita." "That's where it all started." "That morning, my world fell apart." "I was okay." "I was saved." "What are you doing here?" "You know how things were at the other prison." "But here, they put me in charge." "And Tanito?" "He came back with one eye missing, wearing a black patch." "Be careful." "There, things were fucked." "But here its worse, if they don't like you." "It seems like you got worse, did an about-face." "Don't give me shit." "And Fuguita?" "You didn't hear what happened?" "They killed him." "What?" "They left his cell unlocked." "He waited, opened the cell," "And then they shot him in the head." "What are you saying?" "You're wrong!" "Nothing and nobody gets past me!" "10043 Now we have to start being mean." "Heavy handed." "I vomited, then I cried like an idiot." "They used me, used me to hurt the other boys." "He was going to stop killing." "You'd have liked him better." "I can't sleep." "I have strange wild thoughts." "I'm going to end up just like Fuguita." "They killed another boy." "I heard." "I'm certain they want to kill me." "No." "Why would they kill you?" "I don't know what I have to do." "Go to sleep, okay?" "Tomorrow we'll talk." "Go to sleep." "I lay there, awake." "María left a warm spot on the bed, and I put my legs in it." "The wind blew harder than ever." "I had to go on, going through the motions." "Not even a fly was moving." "Everybody up!" "come on!" "If you didn't get dressed quickly, they beat you to a pulp." "I couldn't think about it." "I only thought, like I do now:" "To get out, to escape." "There were more boys, but none of them knew anything." "Our building was named after a Saint." "But everyone was scared to death." "No one was ever going to visit us." "I started to work it out." "From my bed, I could reach the wall in 3 minutes." "Quickly!" "Run in place!" "Faster" "Feet higher!" "Keep going, keep going." "You look like paraplegics... move it" "I want you cleaned up?" "Do you hear?" "First line, to the shower!" "Second line, get ready." "Second line, to the bath!" "Come on, move!" "In the garden, while the others were bathing," ".. María told me how to escape." "What time, everything." "If Lupini and Negrito hadn't followed me, ... today I wouldnt be here in Azul, the worst place in the world." "There's a wood, with a mill... .. and past that, a small town." "In that town, there's a train station." "The train leaves early every morning." "If you go quickly, it's 3 hours." "There's a shed, a place where you can hide until you get on the train." "Ow!" "Ow!" "Get up, Trigo!" "Rosa, bring Pollo." "Let's go, get up." "Up!" "Punish this little one." "No" "Hit him!" "No" "Aren't you the leader?" "Do you hear?" "No." "I don't hit people anymore." "Take him to the punishment cell." "Come one, move it!" "Move!" "Move, I tell you" "Hold your arms behind your back." "Higher!" "Higher!" "I'll teach you what happens when you disobey." "Force them higher." "Higher!" "Stretch your arms!" "Feet together." "Together!" "Right next to each other!" "That's it!" "That's good." "Stand up straight." "Stand as straight as the wall." "Your back flat." "Be still!" "Be still, or I'll smack you!" "Keep going!" "What's wrong with you, huh?" "To the chapel" "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, amen." "Kneel down, I'll take your confession." "Hail purest Mary." "Who Concieved without sin." "You hide many things, Pollo." "There were many things that you didn't tell me." "I don't like that." "No, I don't." "Tell me, boy." "Who was this Fuguita, anyway?" "Your friend?" "What Fuguita?" "What do you mean, 'What Fuguita'." "Don't act the fool with me." "Fuguita, who they killed for stealing." "Answer me, was he your friend?" "Yes" "When?" "I don't remember." "Remember!" "I'm going to help you remember." "I'm giving you a chance you don't deserve." "Did you do drugs there?" "No" "Who brought the drugs into that jail?" "The guards." "And here?" "Here, there are none." "Tell me something." "What did you and this Fuguita do together?" "Was he a bad influence?" "They say he liked most of the boys." "Come on, tell me." "Did Fuguita corrupt you?" "Go to hell." "Go on, to the back." "Faster!" "Go, I say, move!" "Quickly!" "Stop there." "Look at me!" "Take a step forward." "Now one back." "Arms behind you!" "High!" ""Not going to hit people anymore", eh?" "Not going to help anymore?" "Over to the wall!" "Move!" "Over to the wall!" "And I thought you would really come out all right." "A dangerous child, you." "Halt!" "Where do you think you're going?" "Raise your arms!" "Now!" "Up!" "You thought I was asleep, but I never sleep." "The only one that decides when you leave here, is me!" "What did you think?" "Give me that cross!" "Curse you all, for even having been born." "Anyone moves, I kill them." "You hear?" "I'm fed up with you three." "I'm going to send you to the worst place on earth." "Where you'll die of cold and hunger." "Sit down" "What has happened is very serious, María." "And you know I also have to take orders." "The boy won't talk, but I know you influenced him." "María, let me suggest, because I think it is best .... ... that you take some time to think it over." "There will be an investigation." "You are already implicated." "Go, go away from here."
