"But you changed that, John, you really did." "Did I?" "Yeah." "I owe everything that I am today to you, John." "I really do." "I mean, you gave me my self-esteem back." "I've got the love of a man."

"They beat you up, they robbed you of your dignity, they pissed in your food, but they didn't break you." "And with the revolving-door policy of today's prison system, you're probably gonna get paroled tomorrow." "They pissed in my food?" "What difference does it make?" "You're getting out tomorrow and I'm proud of you." "Really?" "Really." "In fact, I snuck you in a going-away present." "Good luck at your hearing." "I'II see you in 1-to-3." "Thank you, John." "Okay." "Couldn't have made it in here without your help." "Why is it already opened?" "I opened it for you." "What for?" "'Cause I'm a great guy and I know you had a real tough day." "You don't trust me?" "After all we've been through?" "One friend can't give another friend a soda without that friend thinking the second friend put a roofie in it?" "Wow." "Well, that hurts, pal." "That hurts." "I've been looking out for you for almost a year now, and then I bust my nuts getting you this goddamn fruity soda and you think I'm up to something?" "Well, screw you, pal."

"Prison's made me a new man." "When I get out of here," "I intend to stand up for what I know is right." "JOHN:" "When the parole board gets through with der Führer, two things are going to happen," "One, they're gonna file his early release form right in between Charles Manson and the Unabomber's," "And two, Nelson's going to be pissed as hell at me," "Why'd you do it, John?" "Amigo, I did it for your own good." "Now hear me out on this one, all right?" "Listen, you got to sandbag your first parole hearing, because..." "Okay, you want to know why?" "I knew your dad." "What?" "Yeah." "The judge." "The man who made me who I am today." "The same man who's going to kill you right now." "What would you call that?" "I'd call that pretty crazy, isn't it?" "No!"

"I schedule the extra-curricular activities." "And if you two are going to fight," "I need some time to get some action going." "So, how's..." "How's Friday sound, huh?" "Friday good?" "Say, rec yard?" "Fight to the death?" "Does that work for you two dickheads?" "(BOTH GRUNTING)" "Sounds like a yes to me." "Sounds like a yes." "Wait." "What do I win if I win?" "If you lose, you die." "If you win, you die." "The difference is I kill the winner." "It'II be quick." "JOHN:" "In one year, I've proven that the machine can warp a law-abiding, spineless sack of shit like Biederman into a totally violent, psychopathic and lethal sack of shit," "The only flaw in my plan was now I'm locked in a cage with him," "Friday, the yard." "John versus Nelson." "Fight to the death." "Yeah, fight's gonna takes place on the cistern." "Uh-huh." "That's awesome." "Hey, how much does brain damage pay?" "GUARD:" "Brain damage?" "I don't know," "You gotta ask Shanahan, He's taking the bets," "I'II put two cartons on Richie Rich taking Lyshitski down." "And this, too, fool." "Brain damage, three to two, ear bit off, even money, ear cut off, seven to five." "Damn, you can cover all that action?" "Sure." "Only took me a second to get the cash." "Second mortgage." "(WHISTLES)" "Biederman, you got a visitor!" "(TASER GUN BUZZING)" "(SCREAMS)" "You're really getting liberal with the Taser." "Congratulations, Barry." "I'm glad they let you out."

"(SHUSHING)" "Barry, you should be happy." "Barry, you're free." "You know I can't be happy without you, baby." "I was just thinking about going postal over at the Popeye's Chicken so I can get locked back up in here with my sweet little Pisces." "I got to get you out." "That's very kind of you, Barry, but you've got to listen to me." "The only way that I'm getting out of here is in a body bag." "It had better be a body bag for two, goddamn it, 'cause I wanna be sewn right in there with your ass." "That's very sweet, Barry." "I wish there were something I could do for you." "You're the closest thing to family I've ever had." "Family..." "Actually, Barry, there is something I can do for you." "Damn it." "Damn it!" "WOMAN:" "Mr, Hinkley, you have a telephone call on line one and there's a gentleman here to see you," "He doesn't have an appointment," "Well, tell him to wait." "Hello." "NELSON:" "Hello, Duane," "Nelson, is that you?" "You allowed to make phone calls now?" "Only to my lawyer, I want out, Now," "I'm sorry, sir." "There's nothing we can do." "Our hands are tied." "Well, in that case, I'll just have to turn control of the Foundation over to my son and, in accordance with the Foundation's charter, he'll be the one running things for me until I'm out," "I'm sorry, did you say your son?" "Oh, I adopted a young man I met in prison, He's out now," "Everything's nice and legal, Duane," "I think you'll enjoy working for him," "He's a real sweetheart," "(BANGING ON DOOR)" "What the hell are you doing in my office, biatch?"

"That's what gave me the idea." "I Iike it." "I got one for you." "(SCREAMING)" "What is that?" "Industrial disinfectant." "They got a shit load in the workroom." "See you in hell, Lyshitski!" "You bet, bud." "Don't do it, John." "I won't if you won't." "You know, you taught me a Iot of things, John." "The most important thing you taught me, never trust anybody." "AII right, ladies, we're on lockdown!" "Dead." "AII right, get them out of here before they start stinking." "DUANE:" "Here's the rest of the necessary paperwork." "As Mr. Biederman's only heir, you're entitled to the entire trust." "Well, money can't fix a broken heart." "Okay." "Well, it's $8 million." "Well, I guess that will take out a Iittle of the sting."

"Hey, wait a minute, now." "If it wasn't for this asshole, we would've never met." "(GRUNTS)" "Oh, thank God." "I got to drop a deuce like no one's business." "AII right, so that's it, John." "We're even." "AII right?" "Yeah." "Let's go, Barry." "JOHN:" "You know, there aren't a shit load of prison stories you'd wanna tell your grandkids, but this one definitely falls into that category," "Hey, you think I could grab a ride from you guys?" "(LAUGHING)" "Can you believe this guy?" "(SIGHS)" "NELSON:" "Well, Barry and I are big fans of Wine Aficionado magazine and I have to confess that we are very eager to hear your opinion." "Be careful for what you wish for, gentlemen." "That first sniff unlocks the door." "Oh, and that second sniff invites you in, sits you down, and gives you a foot massage." "Watch yourself." "What is it that I detect?" "A trace of ammonia or some other sort of disinfectant?" "No, it's ammonia." "I see." "Well, then I'm done with it." "You haven't even tasted it yet." "Precisely." "Well, at Ieast let us introduce you to our head vintner." "He came up with..." "Gentlemen, I don't need to taste your wine nor meet your head vintner to confidently proclaim that this wine is a piece of shit..." "A little piece of heaven?" "Ken Kennedy, head vintner." "See, we're a family here and our grapes are a part of that family." "And they know that we'd do anything for them." "For instance, if some outsider, say, some shit-eating fruit fly were to come in here and mess with them in any way whatsoever, we, and by "we" I mean me and my brothers over there," "would stop at nothing to protect them, and they know that." "So that is why I think you're gonna score Baby Duck wine 100 out of 100 on your next review." "Because you can taste the love in every sip." "Okay?" "Yes, I..." "Of course. 100 it is." "Do you hear that?" "BARRY:" "Drink up, bitches." "(GAGGING)" "Goddamn, is that sweet." "(MOVE THIS PLAYING)" "(SINGING)" "Come on!" "Come on, John." "John, isn't this great?"
