"Thank you" "Supreme Court gives the go ahead" "Get the keys, Zack" "And stand over there by the tripod" "I want you to wait 3 minutes before you take the bags off" "Bitsey, I'm really not so sure about this." "It's way too dangerous" "Stand over the tripod" "Keep your eyes on your watch" "22 seconds" "Oh my god!" "This isn't cool" "No more experiment, alright?" "Just tell me what's going on, are you okay?" "She did it herself" "She did it herself" "She used the gloves to keep her finger prints off the bag" "Then she put them back on the dish rack" "But upside down and inside out, a housewife's habit" "Now, a murderer would've just toss them aside..."

"She has to know some innocent jerk will take the fall" "Oh my god, Zack" "That's it" "That's why" "To prove it happens." "To have absolute proof that this..." "...system convincts innocent" " Get out of here" "That's how she thought" "Come on, think about it." "This woman live for Deathwatch" "If she's going to die anyway, why not die for it?" "That's why the tripod was here to record proof" "undeniable proof, that's why we got the video" "So, a dead woman put the tape in your room?" "No, of course not, I mean..." "She needed help." "Someone to keep it, release it" "Someone dedicated to the cause" "Someone she could trust" "What a dumb." "This guy is a freak" "Dusty is a bullhorn." "A zealot whose ordain on to many good causes..." "You know, the original plan was probably for Dusty..." "To release the tape after gale's convinction" "You know, after a year or so" "Give him back his dignity" "So, Dusty Rodes is sitting on this tape" "Waiting and he's the only one who knows about it" "So, good old Dusty start to think that execution..."
