"Now, I don't know what he saw, Gary, but I don't want to think there's anything out of the way." "Galovan, get over here!" "I'm here." "What did you see me do, man?" "I didn't see you do nothing, Gary, but the appearances left no doubt in my mind." "Maybe I should've kept my mouth shut." "But it seems that your interest in Vern's granddaughter don't look right to me." "Okay, motherfucker, you draw the line, now, man." "You want to fight?" "Get out back." "You had enough?"

"Love is the only way to really help a person." "Yeah." "Yeah, that's right." "Love can bring the spiritual power of God to a situation." "But this is a bad situation." "Your man is far gone." "He wants to kill me." "Pete Galovan, if you press charges, they'll arrest Gary, and then they'll let him out on bail." "He'll get you then." "Even if they lock him up right away." "He's more important to me than my life." "He's a hell of a lot more important to me than your life." "If he don't get you, I will." "All right." "I'll drop the charges against Gary."

"Well, see, I ran into him later on in prison, and he was making this ring out of silver." "I said, "Give me that ring, punk."" "And he said, "Are you the devil?"" "I didn't answer him." "I just took his fucking ring." "When I got married for the second time, my mother was so mad, she dressed me in a black wedding dress." "It was short with a slit up the sides." "Nobody in the house took a picture of the bride." "Motherfucker!" "Endorse it." "Do what?" "Write your name on the back of it." "Gary, I don't want to go around knocking on doors." "You bring the 50 bucks in, not a six-pack." "I don't like that Mustang." "It gets left at intersections." "Mm-hmm." "Well, let's get it straight, partner." "With your credit, I'm doing you the favor." "What I want is a truck." "You got a white truck right out here in your lot." "I'm very highly interested in that truck." "Well, you pay for the Mustang first." "That truck is mucho mazuma." "Lists for $1,700." "Too much truck for you, partner." "Hmm." "My uncle Vern will cosign with me." "Your uncle Vern ain't in shape for that kind of credit." "Give me a credit app, Val." "Oh, boy, Val, is he hot." "I don't give a damn." "People come around me to get hot."

"You know Bishop Christionson's son is going to go to Brazil on his mission." "And there's eight..." "Hey, Mister!" "Here you go, Vern." "Well, it's very nice of you to offer me a case, Gary." "How can you afford it?" "I don't need money for beer." "You realize you're violating your parole." "You gonna turn me in?" "I might." "If it persists, I might." "Fuck it." "Gary, stop." "It's a bummer." "Sorry." "I'm not used to sex with girls." "You're using downers, Gary." "I got that headache." "Don't hassle me." "Well, then don't start what you can't finish."

"Somebody!" "Somebody help me!" "Shit." "All fixed." "You get it all done?" "Yep, all done." "Just..." "just put it on my tab." "Okay, hey, take care." "You look a little wasted, get some Z's." "Yeah, I think I'll crash." "Open up a line to the hospital." "29?" "Close off the intersection." "Car 23, close off the off-ramp at BYU." "Close off the on-ramp at the interstate." "I want every room checked." "Find out if there's anyone els e who saw..." "All right, check around." "Here's the bag." "Okay, let's get some CPR going, guys." "Look, that's a police car." "Two, three,..." "Somebody call and get another unit." "...four, five..." "We're all right!" "Vern, Gary did it." "How do you know?" "Did you see him do it?" "No." "How do you know I didn't do it?" "Vern, there was blood all over his hand." "Officer, listen." "This guy left blood all over my gas station." "I caught his license, he's driving a white truck." "Phil?" "It's possible my nephew, Gary Gilmore, had something to do with this." "You'd better check it out." "Dad?" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Vern..." "do you think Gary did it?" "Yes." "Dumb son of a bitch." "Somebody shot... that nice man Mr. Bushnell next door." "They seen Gary running away." "He'll come to you;" "he always does." "Yeah, right." "Could I talk to the chief, please?" "Yeah, Chief, hi, this is Brenda Nicol calling." "Could you catch my neighbor, Toby Bath, before he goes off duty, please?" "Yeah, just... just ask him to stop by" "Johnny Nicol's house, all right?" "Thanks a lot." "Sterling, I want you to take me to the airport." "Gary, I ought to bring you to the hospital." "Hospitals don't understand ex-convicts with gunshot wounds." "I guess not." "Go call Brenda for me." "How you doing, Gary?" "Brenda, I had this dumb accident." "Uh, I'll explain it to you later." "It's..." "I got shot in the hand." "Uh, it's hurting real bad, and, um,... can you come to me?" "Yeah, of course I'll come, um..." "I'll bring some codeine and some bandages." "Now, you just gotta tell me where you are, Gary." "Okay." "Right." "Either I'll be coming or Johnny will." "Okay, honey." "Toby, um, Sterling's got a wife and a kid." "You can't pick up Gary there." "You'll have a shootout." "All right, let's go down to police headquarters, and maybe they can figure something out." "Brenda, in the meantime, will you stall Gary?" "Say anything." "How long has Johnny been gone?" "He must be having some trouble with all those weird roads in Pleasant Grove, Gare." "He's always getting lost there." "Don't worry." "He'll find you." "If Johnny's not here in five minutes, I'm leaving." "Gary, you on the run or something?" "Five minutes." "Be careful, Gary." "Yeah." "Suspect proceeding west on 900 East, just past 1150 South." "All cars copy." "Driver of the white truck, stop your vehicle." "Stop your vehicle immediately." "Stop your truck immediately." "Put your hands up." "Put your hands up where we can see them."

"Unlatch the door." "Open the door and get out." "Turn around, put your hands up." "Put your hands up so we can see them." "High as you can get them." "Now, step away from the truck." "Step away from the truck." "Lay down in the street." "Lay down immediately in the street!" "Face down, in the street, now." "All the way down." "All the way down on your stomach." "Face down in that street." "All the way down." "Now, stay where you're at, don't move." "Stay where you're at." "Mr. Gilmore, you're under arrest for criminal homicide" "You have the right to remain silent." "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." "You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him present with you while you are being questioned." "If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before questioning, if you wish." "You can decide at any time..." "Locally here in Orem last night was apprehended by police." "He's been identified as Gary Mark Gilmore." "Yeah, hello." "Brenda, why didn't Johnny show up?" "Gary, you commit a murder on Monday, you commit a murder on Tuesday." "I wasn't about to wait till Wednesday rolled around." "I called them." "Well, don't lose no sleep over it." "You just go soak your head, okay?" "What about your mother, Gary, what do you want me to tell her?" "You tell her what you're gonna tell her." "You will anyway, you snitch." "Fuck you." "Give me that." "Nicole?" "I'm Lieutenant Nielsen." "I don't want to see him;" "he'll just mess me up." "Well, it's your decision." "Nicole, you want a beer?" "I'll tell him." "Hold up." "Maybe I will." "You can sit right there." "Hello, baby." "Hello, Gary." "No physical contact." "Did you do it?" "Nicole, don't ask me that." "Baby, I wrote you a letter." "They'll give it to you on the way out." "I love you." "I..." "I don't know what I feel." "I got to get out of here." "Nothing in my experience prepared me for the kind and open, honest love you gave me." "I'm so used to hostility, deceit and pettiness, evil and hatred." "These things are my natural habitat." "They have shaped me." "I look at the world through eyes that suspect, doubt, fear, hate, cheat, all selfish and vain." "I truly belong in a place this dank and dirty." "Gary!" "Gary!" "Gary Gilmore!" "Gary!" "Yeah, babe!" "Gary!" "Gary Gilmore, can you hear me?" "Gary!" "Gary Gilmore, I love you!" "You gotta leave." "Why?" "You can be arrested for doing a thing like this." "I didn't know they can keep you from expressing yourself." "They say I gotta go, I'll write to you!" "Write to me again!" "You read all his shit?" "Gary writes a lot." "Maybe I don't read every word." "Just scrounge through?" "No, I read them." "Every night." "You answer them?" "Every night." "You're crazy." "I got your letter today where you wrote that you fucked a guy twice." "Twice." "I can't stand the thought of some man holding your naked body." "You gotta be all mine, baby." "I'm locked up, I can't get it." "Why can't you go without, too?" "Nicole, I have to keep thinking of the men who've known you, used you and hurt you." "I try to understand as well as I can." "I tell myself that you get by on very little money, and you raise your kids to the verybest of your ability." "You are true and sincere, and I realize that I love you utterly." "I can't see you anymore, you got to go." "You're a flake." "That old man of yours is gonna get nothing but lead poisoning." "Bang, bang!" "Bang, bang, bang, bang." "Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang." "Is there anything the defendant would like to say to the jury?" "Well, I'm glad to see that the jury is finally looking at me." "No, I have nothing to say." "Since the verdict of the jury is death, do you have an election as to the mode of death?" "I prefer to be shot." "Very well, that will be the order." "You're not gonna find this like the county jail." "Big boy, there ain't nothing you can tell me about state prisons;" "I've been there before." "I'm here to see Gary Gilmore." "I'm glad you came." "Well, you invited me, didn't you?" "Yeah, but you weren't gonna come, were you?" "No, but I came." "I couldn't resist looking a stupid man right in the face." "Maybe Iwasstupid." "Yeah, you don't believe it." "I might." "I mean, after all, you gave me a chance and I blew it." "I..." "I want to tell you I appreciate that chance." "Now, we don't want to talk as if we're friends, cause we may not be." "I don't like what you did at all." "It was mean and dirty." "I'm a bad man, I guess." "You're bragging." "What would you say if I told you I deserve to die?" "I'd say you we re a damn fool." "Don't pay any attention to what I say." "Pay attention to what I do." "Your Honor, the Supreme Court of the State of Utah Mr. Gilmore has asked me to act as his new attorney." "My name is Dennis Boaz." "Mr. Boaz, you may proceed." "Mr. Gilmore asks that the motion for appeal filed by his former attorney be set aside and that he be allowed to be executed." "Gary Gilmore, are you in fact at this moment ready to accept execution?" "Not at this moment." "But I am ready to accept it next Monday morning at 8:00 a.m." "That's when it was set, and that's when I'm ready to accept it." "Mr. Boaz, how does Gary Gilmore feel about the decision of the Utah Supreme Court to lift the stay?" "It brings him peace." "Well, Mr. Boaz, why do you think Gary Gilmore committed the crime in the first place?" "Let me answer that as if I were a right-winger, which I am not." "The prison system is a completely regimented, controlled way of life." "Just check it out." "For more than a dozen years," "Gary was told when to go to bed, when to get up and when to eat." "That's totally contradictory with our capitalist lifestyle." "Then one day, they put Gary out on the street and they say, "Here, today is magic." ""Now you're a capitalist." "Go out and do it on your own."" ""Find a job, get up in the morning," ""get to work on time, manage your money." "Do everything we taught you not to do while in prison."" "Guaranteed to fail." "I reckon your karma's got a lot to pay for if you commit suicide." "I'm not asking you to." "But you want me to." "I want us to be together." "I love you more than God." "If I do, what about my kids?" "Your children come through you, baby." "They're not of you." "Everybody's an individual soul." "You're not really thinking about my kids." "Baby, if you have to, I know you'll stay alive and take care of them." "Only once I'm gone, I don't know what I'm gonna do if you're with another man." "I wish we were dead together." "Did Gary seem like himself when you saw him today?" "He told me he'd just as so on be shot right now." "Yeah, what did you say back?" "I said maybe he should." "You really got a sense of humor, girl." "Listen." "Get one thing straight." "Gary deserves the death penalty." "You don't understand him." "You try understanding them poor women that has to raise their kids without a father while you're running up every cockeyed day to see the killer." "I don't want to hear a goddamn thing you got to say." "Raise your arms." "Lift your foot." "Lift your other foot." "Yard door is open for recreation." "Repeat, yard door is open..." "Open section twelve, Harry." "Thank you." "I got it." "How many is it?" "25 reds and ten downers." "Hope it's enough." "Remember when I asked you if you was the devil?" "Yeah." "Are you?" "The devil doesn't feel any love." "I may be further away from God than I am from the devil." "I know evil very intimately." "Oh, oh, I trust you." "I'm gonna do it." "Go to sleep now." "Go to sleep, Sunny bunny." "Go to sleep, Jeremy." "Mom, please do not resent my leaving this life." "If I could spare you all any pain, I surely would." "I love you all." "Please love my kids always as they are part of the family." "Never hide truth from them." "Try not to grieve for me or resent Gary." "I love him." "How did he get the stuff?" "Is he going to be allowed visitors?" "Is he conscious?" "What did he say?" "Get back!" "Yeah." "Okay." "Oh." "No." "No." "No." "No!" "No!" "I can't put Nicole in a mental hospital." "If you don't sign, we have to get a court order saying she's incompetent and suicidal." "It's a lot of awful publicity." "Mrs. Baker, it's just not safe to let her out." "Gary Gilmore will talk her into suicide again." "Dr. Brooks, Dr. Brooks, wanted in O.R." "Dr. Brooks, Dr. Brooks, wanted in O.R." "I don't want him ever to get near my daughter." "There won't be anymore contact visits." "I'm sorry." "I gotta talk to you!" "Sit here, please." "You can use this telephone to talk to him." "It's temporary while he's over here at the prison hospital." "Gary will you pick up the telephone, please." "...Warden Smith, Henry Bay." "George..." "Well, we didn't end very good, did we?" "I don't think I'm very mad anymore." "I'm glad to hear that." "I need you." "Whatever for, Gary?" "I want you to act as my representative, take care of things." "I'm a shoemaker, Gary." "I don't think I can handle it, something as big as this." "Vern, with your business ability and my practical sense, who can stop us?" "Let's shake on it." "You know how to do that through glass?" "Hey, Gary, you ol' shit head." "Looks like you're gonna pull through, huh?" "You ain't changed none." "You still mad at me?" "Well, I don't give a damn." "Glad you're alive." "Only I'm wondering, Gary, how come you didn't take enough pills to do the job?" "What are you talking about?" "Well, Gary, come on." "You know a whole lot about drugs." "You know how much to take." "I bet you just wanted to stay around long enough to see whether Nicole was dead or... maybe just damaged in her brain some." "I don't think like that." "Ah, come on, Gary." "If she's brain damaged, nobody else is gonna want her, right?" "You're a wretched woman." "And you're a scum-sucking pig." "You have a vile and dirty mouth." "Miss Baker is not going to hear Gilmore's name any more than necessary." "Make it clear." "No aid or patient here is to mention it." "That may be impossible." "She has to be allowed to see her relatives." "Well, warn them." "She's under our supervision now." "As far as I'm concerned, Gilmore is out of her life." "Locally, Pastor Confare stated," ""The Old Testament idea of an eye for an eye," ""was replaced by the New Testament concepts of love and rehabilitation."" "Pastor Confare stated," ""Gilmore doesn't want to be rehabilitated."" "He also pointed out..." "Let's show'em, gang!" "...kept alive by machine in the hospital, who wants the plug pulled." "And because of the many questions Come on, guys about Gary Gilmore's sentencing," "Governor Rampton has asked the Utah Board of Pardons to review Gilmore's deat sentence at their next meeting, that means the execution..." "Hi." "cannot take place as scheduled." "And this morning Provo County attorney Noall Wootton stated, Chocolate milk, please." ""I've done my job." "I asked for and got the death penalty." Lou, there is no way that this story can miss." "Look, if we get Gilmore's okay but no Nicole, we do a scenario of a guy who comes out of prison, struggles with old con habits before killing a man." "On the other hand, if we can get the girl but we can't sign Gilmore, then we focus the whole thing completely on Nicole." "I mean, here's a study of an adolescent, saddled with children, who falls in love with a criminal." "I am sure of the potentialities." "And I want the network to back me in a real way." "I want to be able to get in there and deal for this property." "Everybody's here." "The stamp is on the meat." "I'm prepared to offer yo u a total of $75,000 for all rights, of which Nicole will get a third." "In effect, I'm offering Gary $50,000." "This is a firm offer, Mr. Damico." "This is not a bargaining stance." "These are the real prices that are available." "Other producers eventually may tell you that the property may be worth $10 million." "Watch them only offer a small amount now." "The likelihood is, the big piece will never be seen." "Mr. Susskind called me from New York." "He said the difference between him and you is the difference between a high school football team and the Dallas Cowboys." "Mr. Susskind is right." "Heisequal to the Dallas Cowboys, and in his eyes" "I'm maybe just a high school football team." "But I am here, Mr. Damico, all suited up, ready to play." "Where are the Dallas Cowboys?" "They're not even in the stadium." "I'm listening." "Mr. Gilmore, your uncle has asked me to serve as your lawyer, but I can't represent this case by myself." "There could be a conflict of interest." "Suppose you change your mind and want to appeal." "Then the movie and book rights to your life story will be worth less when Mr. Samuels gets around to selling them." "I don't want to ask myself whether your death will be more profitable to me than your life." "So I've asked Mr. Stanger, here, to represent you on your court appearances." "Okay, let me talk to Samuels." "Warden Smith," "Warden Smith, report to the visiting room." "Who's gonna play me in the movie?" "Well, who'd you have in mind?" "Well, there was this guy in, uh, in that movie "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia" (1974)" "That's Warren Oates." "Yeah, Warren Oates." "I like him;" "I want him to play me." "Put it in the contract." "Warren Oates might not be available." "I might not want Warren Oates." "You're getting into my part of the business." "I have to say no." "Larry, we both know Warren Oates ain't handsome enough to play me." "All right." "Who do you really want?" "Gary Cooper." "I was named after him." "Are you a Hollywood producer?" "How much is Gilmore being paid?" "Who do you represent?" "Has Gilmore spoken to his girlfriend yet?" "Have you spoken to Gilmore's brother?" "Gilmore's family's appealing the state." "Who are you paying for the rights, Samuels?" "Who do you represent, Samuels?" "Why was Dennis Boaz fired?" "I want to apologize for driving you around in a Rolls Royce." "It's my boss's." "I don't care about the accommodations." "I just want to get to the prison to see my brother." "It's been four years." "Yeah, well, you will." "I succeeded in getting an unrestricted visit." "There won't be a glass window between you." "Mikal, you realize" "Gary's execution is going to have fatal results for a lot of men on death row, everywhere." "The guard says Canfield brought you out here in a Rolls Royce." "It's not important." "Those liberals are idiots, Mikal." "I might have to help them." "Who do you think the ACLU is?" "A bunch of holy men?" "They're using you so they can get to me so they can make headlines in New York." "That's how they make their money." "Gary, they won't be doing it, I will." "Would you really appeal, against my wishes?" "Violate my privacy?" "Gary, save it." "I know you too well." "Every time you broke into a house when you were a kid, you spoiled it for the people who lived there." "You violated their privacy." "You're an incredibly selfish human being." "Watch it, kiddo." "No" "I want to speak." "I've always been too frightened of you to say anything, but face it, brother," "I may appeal your execution." "Maybe I believe your redemption can only be found by your choosing to live." "Very well put, Mikal." "But you don't have to live here." "And I do." "I've been here so long there's nothing left in me." "When they first sent me to juvenile hall, two boys held me down and raped me." "Right at the bucket." "Two years later," "I was the one holding down the new kids." "On the inside of every wolf, there's a scared little punk looking for revenge." "I see." "No, you don't." "I don't want anybody holding me down again, Mikal." "I want to die while I'm still strong." "Good-bye." "I'll see you in the darkness." "Minicam Two, ready." "We're live to New York." "And today, in Washington, DC, the ACLU filed a motion to appeal the execution of Gary Gilmore." "Locally, the Board of Pardons, tomorrow, will review Gilmore's death sentence." "Imagine that cheap killer getting all this attention." "We, of the Board of Pardons, are meeting here at the request of the governor to review your death sentence." "Do you have a statement you'd like to make?" "I accepted the sentence that was given to me." "I've accepted sentences all my life." "I didn't know I had any choice in the matter." "Then everybody wanted to jump up and argue with me about it." "Seems that the people of the State of Utah want to have the death penalty, but they don't want any executions." "When it became a reality, well, they started backing off on it." "Well, I took them literal and serious when they sentenced me to death." "Just like they'd sentenced me to ten years or 30 days in the county jail or something." "I thought you was supposed to take them serious." "I didn't know I was a joke." "In my opinion, you're all acting like a bunch of moral cowards." "Mr. Gilmore, in spite of what you might think of us, we on the Board of Pardons here are not cowards." "We will make this decision on the statutes of the State of Utah, and not your desires." "This morning, the Supreme Court ruled in your favor." "They said you made an intelligent waver of your rights." "Well, I could've told you the Supreme Court knows I'm intelligent." "It's the people of Utah that don't." "Now, the execution is set for the 17th of January." "Good." "It doesn't seem to affect your mood." "Someday you guys are going to realize I'm serious." "Oh, we do, Gary." "Okay, let's get on with Samuels' questions." "Samuels is rough today." "I warn you." "For instance, here's the first one." "You speak of this cold, murderous rage you felt on each of the nights of the killings." "Samuels wants to know if that rage couldn't have been vented in sex." "I don't answer questions that pertain to sex." "I think they're cheap." "You seem to find it easier to talk about murder than sex." "That's your judgment." "Next question." "What are some of the evil acts you could not perform?" "Well, that's easy." "I don't think I could torture anybody." "Isn't forcing somebody to lie down on the ground and shooting them in the back of the head torture?" "It's a very short torture." "How can any crime be worse than taking a life?" "Well, you could alter somebody." "You'd maim 'em, blind em, fuck 'em up so bad the rest of their lives would be in misery." "Now, to me, that's a lot worse than killing." "I mean, if you kill somebody you might be assuming their karmic debts and thereby relieve them of the burden." "So there are crimes you deem worse than murder." "I mean, Jesus, look what some governments do to their people." "I'm talking about the forms of brainwash, like all the forms of behavior modification, like the irreversible forms." "Like lobotomies and Prolixin." "I mean, uh, you don't interfere with people's fate, is what I say." "Didn't you interfere with Jensen's and Bushnell's lives?" "Yeah." "You think you had any right to do that?" "No." "Did Jensen resist or did he show fear?" "No, he did not resist." "He did not show undue fear." "In fact, I was struck by his kind and friendly... smiling face." "Next question." "Was the second murder any easier than the first?" "I would say it was a little more certain that Mr. Bushnell was gonna die." "Why?" "Because it was already a fact that Mr. Jenkins had died." "Jensen, Gary, not Jenkins." "Oh, damn!" "I hate getting his name wrong like that, man." "Damn!" "Hang in there." "Gary, paperboy time." "Thank you." "Jimmy Carter." "Betty Ford." "Body of Mao Tse Tung lying in state." "Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and do you know who else is right here on this page?" "Gary Gilmore." "No question about it, I'm by now the best known convict in the United States." "Father, I'd so much rather be known for my humanitarianism and my intellect." "Like Jimmy Carter." "Gary... whatever's fair." "Move it right in here." "Come on, move it in." "Just follow him." "Move it in here." "May I have your attention, please?" "Are you that dumb that you'r e going to go to your grave not forgiving me for what I did?" "I'll forgive you, yeah." "I guess." "I don't know." "We got different codes of ethics, after all." "Yeah." "Anyway, I feel like I ought to say good-bye." "Gary..." "Well, I guess you know that I'm... going to the hospital from here." "They're operating on me early this evening." "Yeah, I heard." "They didn't say what for." "It's my insides." "They just got to cut out a couple of knots." "God, Brenda, you sure are a mess." "I love you." "Hurry up, Jerry." "Is that Gilmore's lawyer?" "Yeah, and that's his uncle with him." "Hey, here they come." "Mr. Damico, do you think" "Gilmore's repented of his two murders?" "Do you think there's going to be another stay?" "Has the ACLU spoken to you, Mr. Moody?" "Will Gilmore make a statement to the press before the execution?" "Is it true thata great many state officials have been invited to the execution?" "What's Gilmore going to have for his last meal?" "When they said, "A blessing for us, too."" "He said, "Si, si, tutti-frutti, tutti-frutti.""

"Who can justify it?" "This is judicial homicide." "Your Honor, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Mr. Gilmore has "intelligently waived his right to appeal."" "That should remove any doubt in the mind of the court." "Now, the State asks that Ms. Canfield's request for stay be denied." "It is true." "Mr. Gilmore did say, "I do not want to appeal."" "But that does not release the State of Utah from undertaking a mandatory review of this case." "Right now, we don't know whether the Utah death penalty statute is or is not in contravention to the U.S. Constitution, since it hasn't been examined by the U.S. Supreme Court." "In addition, public funds are being spent for the purpose of executing Gary Gilmore." "Unlawfully spent." "The Utah death penalty statute has not been held unconstitutional by any court, and..." "If I may, Your Honor." "Ms. Canfield is attempting to stop an execution, not the wrongful expenditures of taxpayers' funds." "Thank you, Mr. Dorius." "Say, Al?" "Al?" "Al, the warden wants us to proceed as though the execution is on." "So everyone, uh, you'll all have to say good-bye to Gary Gilmore, now." "Have you heard from Denver?" "No, there's no word, but if they do overturn Ritter, we don't want to be caught sitting on our hands, okay?" "You been really great, you know that?" "So long, Gary." "So long, Gary." "Good luck to you." "See ya, Gary." "You're all right, man." "Really." "Bob." "So long." "Don." "Uncle Vern." "They overturned Ritter." "It's on!" "It's on!" "Hey, it's on." "It's on?" "Oh, wait a minute." "Hey, you guys." "Get up, it's on." "It's on." "All right, come on, it's on." "What's happening?" "Get a shot of that." "Wake up, wake up!" "It's on, it's on!"
