"Luther watts has earned the right to a second chance." "You know what the guards used to call old Luther?" "The geek." "Because he liked to bite his victims on the neck and watch them bleed to death." "Human beings have the capacity to change." "You will admit that much, Mr. Walsh?" "Should have hung the bastard when they had the chance." "You're disgusting." "I don't know how you ever got appointed to this board." "' Up yours." "Bleeding heart bitch." "All right, Walsh."
