YOU' VE BEEN

SOME OF THE BOYS
WERE COMING UP TOWN,

AND THEY
DROPPED ME OFF.

[POLICE SIRENS]

TOMMY--
NOW, WILL YOU STOP WORRYING ABOUT ME?

I CAN' T HELP IT.
THEY' LL ARREST YOU SOMEDAY.

THEY' VE ARRESTED ME
BEFORE, BUT WHAT GOOD DID IT DO THEM?

I MEAN FOR KEEPS.

YOU TALK AS IF I
WAS GETTING DUMBER INSTEAD OF THE COPS.

NO, BUT YOU CAN' T KEEP ON
OUTSMARTING THEM FOREVER.

WHO SAID SO?
I DO. I KNOW IT.

WON' T THAT BE TOUGH.

THEY' LL HANG
A RAP ON ME AND SEND ME UP,

AND YOU' LL BE HERE
ALL ALONE, BAKING CAKES FOR ME.

[CHUCKLES]

I DON' T KNOW
WHY I EVEN TRY AND TALK TO YOU.

I' M A CHUMP.
FOR LOVING ME?

YES.

THAT' S WHY I
SORT OF LIKE YOU.

ALL RIGHT.
SO YOU WON' T GIVE IT UP.

TO DO WHAT?
RAISE TURNIPS?

YOUR BOSSES
ARE THE SMART ONES.

THEY DON' T
TAKE ANY CHANCES.

THEY LEAVE
THAT UP TO YOU.

LISTEN, NOBODY
PUSHES ME AROUND.

IF I TAKE CHANCES,
IT' S BECAUSE I WANT TO TAKE THEM.

I' M ON MY WAY

IN THE MEANTIME,
I LET THE BOSSES PROTECT ME.

IT' S ALL GRAVY.
SURE.

ONE OF THESE DAYS,
I' LL BE A BOSS.

THEN YOU WON' T BE
ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

THAT' S WHAT
I' M AFRAID OF.

AHH, FORGET IT. COME

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME
TO DO? CATCH COLD?

[BEGIN THE BEGUINE PLAYING]

YEAH, YEAH.
THAT WOULDN' T BE A BAD IDEA.

I DON' T LIKE IT,
THOUGH.

[APPLAUSE]

WHAT' S THE MATTER
WITH THOSE MUSICIANS?

JUST WHEN I WAS
IN THE MOOD!

THOSE CLUCKS SPEND
HALF THE NIGHT SLEEPING.

Waiter: CHAMPAGNE

Crowley: HOW DID THINGS GO TONIGHT?
SWELL.

THANKS. WHAT THINGS?

OH, UH...JUST

LOOKING FOR YOU.

THANKS.

TOMMY.
TOMMY, WHAT--

Crowley:
HELLO, RAGAN.

WELL, YOU SLIPPED UP
THIS TIME, GORDAN.

WE WANT TO SEE YOU

YOU THINK THEY' D GET
TIRED OF MAKING ME

GO ALL THE WAY
DOWNTOWN JUST TO GET BAILED OUT.

WELL, THERE WON' T BE
ANY BAIL THIS TIME.

FIRST-DEGREE ROBBERY,
ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON,

INTENT TO COMMIT MURDER.

WHAT' LL THEY

SHOULDN' T HAVE

FAMOUS SHIRT STUDS

IS THAT SO?

WELL, AIN' T THAT
CARELESS OF ME!

I MUST HAVE
LEFT IT HOME, BUT JUST TO OBLIGE YOU,

I' LL DROP IN
AFTER THE SHOW.

I SAID ON YOUR FEET!

HOW ABOUT ANOTHER
DANCE, BABY?

YOU HEARD
WHAT HE SAID!

NEVER MIND THE GUN.
I' LL GO ALONG WITH YOU.

HANDS OFF ME, SEE? I DON' T LIKE IT.

COME ALONG, ED. GET

Newspaper Boy: EXTRA!
"GORDAN DENIED BAIL!

EXTRA! EXTRA!
"GORDAN DENIED BAIL!

[PEOPLE TALKING
INDISTINCTLY]

[POUNDING GAVEL]

ORDER! ORDER!

HAVE YOU REACHED
A VERDICT?

WE HAVE,
YOUR HONOR.

THE BAILIFF WILL

THE DEFENDANT

ONLY TOOK THAT JURY
AN HOUR AND A HALF. CINCH.

I TOLD YOU

Man: WE, THE JURY, FIND
THE DEFENDANT GUILTY

OF THE CRIME
OF FIRST-DEGREE ROBBERY AND ASSAULT

WITH A DEADLY WEAPON
WITH AN INTENT TO COMMIT MURDER.

WHY, THE DUMB,
STUPID--

YEAH, I' M THE GOAT.
OH, FORGET IT.

YOU MAY HAVE TO GO UP,
BUT WE' LL HAVE YOU OUT.

A NEW TRIAL, A PARDON,
A PAROLE, ...

TOMMY!

DON' T WORRY, HONEY.

DARLING, THEY' LL
SEND YOU TO PRISON!

THEY MAY,
FOR A WHILE.

CROWLEY' S GOTTEN ME
OUT OF JAMS BEFORE.

HE' LL FIX IT.
SURE, WE' LL FIX IT.

BACK TO YOUR
SEAT, PLEASE.

[POUNDING GAVEL]
ORDER!

ORDER IN THE COURT!

[TRAIN WHISTLE]

THAT' S IT, TOMMY.

THERE' S YOUR CASTLE
ON THE HUDSON.

HUH?

OH, YEAH!
HIYA, SING SING!

WHAT A DOPEY NAME.

SOUNDS LIKE
A CHOP SUEY JOINT.

HOW ABOUT IT,
GORDAN?

THE PUBLIC WILL
WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU LIKE THE PLACE.

YOU CAN QUOTE ME AS
SAYING THAT IT DON' T MEAN A THING TO ME.

THAT' S RIGHT, KID.
DON' T LET IT GET YOU DOWN.

THERE AIN' T NOTHING
EVER GOT ME DOWN.

ONCE I' M IN THE JOINT,
I' LL OWN THE PLACE.

WELL, THAT' LL
TAKE YOU SOME TIME,

BUT THEN, YOU' LL
HAVE PLENTY OF THAT.

YEAH, 5 TO 30 YEARS
IS NO LUNCH HOUR.

5 TO 30, BALONEY.

THEY' LL BE LUCKY IF THEY
KEEP ME THERE A MONTH.

IT' S GOING TO BE
QUITE A CHANGE FOR YOU, TOMMY.

NO TAILOR SHOPS
OR SWELL NIGHTCLUBS IN THERE.

IF I DON' T
LIKE THE JOINT, I' LL MOVE OUT.

YEAH, IN
A $2.00 COFFIN.

HEY, DON' T KID
YOURSELF.

I' LL KICK MY WAY OUT
OF THAT OLD DUMP WITH MOCCASINS ON.

Crowley: NOW,
JUST A MINUTE, BOYS. HE' S ONLY KIDDING YOU.

WITH THE CONNECTIONS
I' VE GOT, HE WON' T HAVE TO CRUSH OUT.

CERTAINLY!
CERTAINLY!

YOU' RE GOING TO
SEE THE WARDEN, AREN' T YOU?

SURE. AS SOON
AS WE GET THERE.

DON' T WORRY. HE' LL
GO EASY ON YOU.

IT' LL BE APPLE PIE.
YEAH.

TOMMY' S JUST
MARKED UP WRONG, THAT' S ALL.

BUT JUSTICE ISN' T
ALWAYS BLIND, YOU KNOW.

YOU BET SHE AIN' T.

THAT' S WHY HE' S HERE.

[LAUGHTER]

OSSINING, OSSINING.

WELL,
THERE YOU ARE.

IN A FEW MINUTES,
YOU' LL BE ALL SET IN YOUR NEW HOME.

WHAT ARE
YOU DOING NOW?

I GOT TO
LOOK MY BEST FOR THE CROWD, DON' T I?

THERE WON' T BE ANY
CROWD, SONNY BOY.

FROM NOW ON,
YOU' RE JUST A NUMBER.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
JUST A NUMBER?

OH, COME ON!

WITH THE WRITE-UPS
I' VE BEEN GETTING,

YOU THINK THEY' RE
GOING TO FORGET ME? SURE.

A MONTH FROM NOW,
NEW YORK WON' T EVEN REMEMBER YOUR NAME.

DON' T WORRY, TOMMY.
GOING TO BE A LOT OF TOUGH GUYS

COMING UP TO
TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THE SPOTLIGHT.

SAY, NOBODY CAN
TAKE MY PLACE.

I GOT COLOR!
I GOT PERSONALITY!

YOU GUYS BEEN WRITING
THAT YOURSELVES.

SURE. THAT' S PART
OF OUR RACKET--

GIVING YOU GORILLAS
PERSONALITIES.

WHY, YOU!

GET GOING!

WHAT A ROMANTIC
SPOT.

SEE THAT ALL
MY WINDOWS HAVE THE SAME VIEW.

SURE.
SO LONG, TOMMY.

HAVE A GOOD TIME.

WELL, WE' LL BE
SEEING YOU, TOMMY.

TAKE GOOD CARE
OF YOURSELF.

YEAH, YEAH, SURE.
SO LONG.

NOT A BAD HOTEL.

AT LEAST THEY KEEP
THE JOINT CLEAN.

YEAH.
IT' S PRETTY NICE.

PLENTY OF
VENTILATION, TOO.

GOT A FRESH CUSTOMER FOR YOU, JACK.
ALL RIGHT.

HEY, YOU! WHERE' S
THE WARDEN' S OFFICE?

UPSTAIRS.
THANK YOU.

HEY, HERE!
WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU' RE GOING?

THIS WAY FOR YOU.

MAKE IT SNAPPY, ED.

I' LL BE
RIGHT BACK.

HELLO. SAY,
IS THE WARDEN IN?

JUST TAKE A SEAT ON
THE BENCH OUTSIDE.

OH, TELL HIM
IT' S ED CROWLEY.

IT' S VERY
IMPORTANT. [DOOR OPENS]

HELLO, WARDEN!
HOW ARE YA?

WELL, I GUESS YOU
DON' T REMEMBER ME.

I' M ED CROWLEY.
YOU KNOW, THE BOSS OF THE 28th DISTRICT.

MM-HMM.
SAY, CAN I SEE YOU FOR A MINUTE?

WELL.

WHAT' S ON YOUR
MIND, CROWLEY?

OH, NOTHING MUCH.

I JUST CAME UP WITH
YOUNG TOMMY GORDAN.

NICE KID. A LITTLE
HIGH-SPIRITED, THAT' S ALL.

HE' S GOT A LOT OF
FRIENDS ON THE OUTSIDE

THAT WOULD
APPRECIATE IT IF--

YES...BUT GORDAN IS
ON THE INSIDE.

[CHUCKLING]
WARDEN, GIVE HIM A BREAK.

HE' S A NICE KID.
HE' S BRIGHT, LIKEABLE.

HE' S A LOT
OF LAUGHS, TOO.

OF COURSE,
HE LOSES HIS HEAD ONCE IN A WHILE,

BUT IT REALLY
DOESN' T MEAN ANYTHING.

YOU KNOW HOW
THESE YOUNG FELLOWS ARE, WARDEN.

IT' S ALL IN FUN.

ALL IN FUN, HUH?

GOOD OLD BONDS.

BALES MORE OF IT
WHERE THEY CAME FROM.

WE WANT OUR BOY

HEY! WHAT' S THE IDEA?
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU' RE DOING?

AFTER ALL, I JUST
ASKED YOU A FAVOR.

LISTEN, CROWLEY.

I' M RUNNING THIS PRISON,
AND AS LONG AS I AM, I' M GOING TO RUN IT

WITHOUT POLITICIANS
AND WITHOUT BRIBES.

PEOPLE ON THE OUTSIDE
ARE SUPPOSED TO BE

CREATED FREE AND EQUAL,
BUT THEY AREN' T.

IN HERE, THEY ARE.

ONE INMATE IS JUST
AS GOOD AS ANOTHER,

NO BETTER.

NOW GET OUT
AND STAY OUT.

WHEN YOU GET BACK
TO YOUR WARD,

TELL THOSE BOYS YOU' VE
BEEN TALKING ABOUT

I WANT THEM AROUND
HERE ABOUT AS MUCH

AS I WANT A FLOCK
OF MAGGOTS.

AND IF THAT GORDAN
EXPECTS ANY FAVORS,

HE' S GOING TO FIND OUT
DIFFERENTLY RIGHT AWAY.

YOU DON' T UNDERSTAND.

YOU DON' T UNDERSTAND.

THAT' S ALL.
YES, BUT--

GET OUT, CROWLEY.

TAKE GOOD CARE OF
THAT STUFF, SEE?

YEAH, SURE. WE' LL
WIND THE WATCH EVERY NIGHT.

THAT AIN' T FUNNY.

I' LL BE BACK FOR IT
SOONER THAN YOU THINK.

WAIT A MINUTE. I WANT
THAT MONEY AND STUFF

IN THE CELL
WITH ME. WHAT FOR?

TO BUY THINGS WITH.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

OH, YEAH, SURE,
BUT WE GOT TO GET THE WARDEN' S OK.

JUST AS SOON AS
HE CAN GET AROUND

TO MAKING YOU
COMFORTABLE,

WE' LL SEND IT
RIGHT OVER.

OH! OK! THAT' LL
BE ALL RIGHT.

AND DON' T FORGET
TO TELL THE WARDEN

HE WANTS A FEATHER
MATTRESS, TOO.

YEAH, SURE.
ALL RIGHT, TAKE HIM AWAY.

THIS WAY, GORDAN.
WE' LL GET SOME CLOTHES FOR YOU.

JUST A MOMENT!
JUST A MOMENT!

CROWLEY HASN' T
COME BACK YET.

I' M SEEING HIM
BEFORE I GO IN.

YOU WON' T SEE HIM
TILL NEXT VISITOR' S DAY

AND NOT THEN, IF YOU
START ACTING UP.

COME ON.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HE' S SEEING
THE WARDEN NOW.

YOU' LL BE GETTING
YOUR ORDERS

ANY MINUTE ON
HOW TO TREAT ME.

HE' S RIGHT.
MR. GORDAN' S GOT A LOT OF PULL.

YOU BETTER LAY OFF
HIM. THE WARDEN' LL BE ON YOUR NECK.

OOH! I SEE!

EXCUSE ME, MR. GORDAN,
BUT I HAD TO FOLLOW RULES.

AND NOW, IF YOU DON' T
MIND, WE' D LIKE YOU TO SEE OUR TAILOR.

WELL!
THAT' S DIFFERENT!

NOW YOU' RE TALKING
MY LANGUAGE.

SURE. LET' S GO.
THANK YOU, MR. GORDAN.

SO LONG, GORDAN.
SEE YOU IN 30 YEARS.

YOU' LL SETTLE
FOR LESS, YOU OLD BUZZARD.

SPECIAL PRIVILEGE
CUSTOMER, BILL.

68431. GIVE HIM
THE BEST YOU GOT.

YEAH. 36 SHIRT,
34 TROUSERS, AND A SIZE 9 SHOE.

HEY, WHAT' S
THE IDEA?

YOU AREN' T
PICKING OUT--

I CAN TELL WHAT
YOU NEED FROM LOOKING AT YOU.

YOU' RE LUCKY TO GET
SPECIAL PRIVILEGE.

THE OTHER GUYS GET
JUST PLAIN JUNK.

YEAH?

KEEP THIS ON ICE.

THANKS.

Gordan:
WHAT' S THE IDEA?

WHAT KIND OF
A THING IS THIS?

WHAT KIND OF
A THING IS THIS?

HEY, LOOK AT THIS.
WHAT KIND OF AN OUTFIT IS THIS?

WHAT IS THIS? A GAG?
LOOK AT THIS! LOOK AT THIS!

HEY, LOOK,
LOOK, LOOK!

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS
TRYING TO DO?

MAKE A MONKEY
OUT OF ME? GO SIT DOWN!

MAYBE YOU DON' T
KNOW WHO I AM!

MY NAME

I SAID GO SIT DOWN!

WHY, YOU!

I SEE! TRYING TO MAKE
A FOOL OUT OF ME, HUH?

COME ON! COME ON!

COME ON!

JUST A MINUTE!

COME ON,

I' LL SHOW YOU

COME ON! COME ON,
YOU DIRTY COWARDS!

I' LL TACKLE YOU!

I' LL WIPE OUT THE WHOLE
PLACE OF YOU! COME ON!

LET ME GO!
LET ME GO, I TELL YOU!

LET ME GO! LET ME GO!

I' LL KILL YOU!
I' LL MURDER YOU!

I' LL SHOW YOU
HOW TOUGH I AM!

I' LL MURDER YOU!
I' LL MURDER YOU!

ALL RIGHT.

HE DOESN' T HAVE
TO WEAR A UNIFORM

IF HE DOESN' T WANT TO.

BUT DON' T KEEP HIM
IN THE ISOLATION CELL.

STICK HIM IN
THE RECEPTION COMPANY

WITH THE REST
OF THE NEW MEN.

JUST FOLLOW OUT
THE REGULAR ROUTINE.

BUT NO UNIFORM.

ALL RIGHT, YOU.
COME OUT OF HERE.

IF YOU' RE TAKING ME
OUT TO GIVE ME THE WORKS,

YOU' LL HAVE
TO DRAG ME OUT.

NO, NO.
YOU DON' T GET ANY MORE OF THAT.

YOU' VE GOT A BIG
PULL AROUND HERE.

THE WARDEN SAYS
YOU DON' T HAVE TO WEAR ANY UNIFORM.

WELL.

WELL!

YOU SEE?

THAT' S WHAT I WAS
TRYING TO TELL THOSE LUGS

WHEN THE FIGHT STARTED.

CERTAINLY! CERTAINLY!

OK, BOYS. LET' S GO.

HOW' S ABOUT A LITTLE
CIGARETTE, CHIEF, HUH?

COME ON, NOW.
BE GOOD.

AW, BE
A REGULAR GUY.

BE A SPORT!

Prisoner:
HELLO, SWEETIE.

Second Prisoner:
LOOKS LIKE HE' S GOT A SET

OF BURGLAR TOOLS
IN THE SEAT OF THEM PANTS.

Third Prisoner:
HEY, CAP, WHY DON' T YOU SEARCH HIM?

Fourth Prisoner:
AIN' T HE GOT THEM CUTE LEGS?

Fifth Prisoner:
HEY, GOT A DATE TONIGHT?

COME ON,
COME ON.

KIND OF COLD
THIS MORNING.

SURE, SURE.
COME ON, COME ON.

WAIT A MINUTE,
WAIT A MINUTE.

WHAT ABOUT MY CLOTHES?
WHERE ARE WE GOING?

YOU SAID YOU DIDN' T
WANT A UNIFORM.

THE WARDEN SAID IT
WOULD BE ALL RIGHT.

ANYTHING
TO PLEASE YOU.

THAT' S THE GAG, HUH?

OK, BABY. IT' S ALL
RIGHT WITH ME.

[WHISTLE]

Man:
MACHINE SHOP DETAIL!

FORWARD! MARCH!

QUITE THE BIG SHOT,
WILL YOU.

WHITE TIE AND TAILS.

[LAUGHTER]

COME ON. LET' S GO.

Prisoner: LOOK AT HIM!

COME ON OVER HERE,
DROOPY DRAWERS!

[LAUGHTER]

[WHISTLE]

Man: QUIET!

FORWARD! MARCH!

HIYA, SARGE.
PRETTY CHILLY THIS MORNING.

SURE IS.
Man: FORWARD! MARCH!

Second Man:
FORWARD!

ALL RIGHT, BOB.

YOU CAN TAKE
THE MEN INTO THE BOILER ROOM.

NO, NOT YOU.
YOU WORK IN HERE.

Bob: LEFT FACE!
FORWARD! MARCH!

Man: FORWARD! MARCH!

ALL RIGHT.

PUT THAT DOWN.

Warden:
PUT IT DOWN!

OK, OK.

I UNDERSTAND
YOU DIDN' T LIKE

THE UNIFORM
I ISSUED YOU.

I STILL
DON' T LIKE IT.

I DON' T SUPPOSE
YOU LIKE THE FOOD

OR THE HOURS EITHER.

AND I GUESS
MAYBE YOU DON' T LIKE YOUR CELL.

IT' S ROTTEN.

NO, IT ISN' T ROTTEN.

IT ISN' T THE BEST
PLACE IN THE WORLD, BUT IT' S CLEAN.

I RATE A BETTER
JOINT THAN THAT.

THAT' S WHAT EVERYONE
GETS UNTIL THERE' S ROOM FOR THEM

IN THE NEW
CELL BLOCKS.

ALL YOU' RE
ENTITLED TO IN HERE

IS FOOD AND
A PLACE TO SLEEP.

ANYTHING
ELSE YOU GET, YOU GET FROM ME.

WHAT MAKES YOU
THINK YOU RATE

ANYTHING BETTER
THAN ANYBODY ELSE?

WELL, THEY SORT OF
PROMISED ME THAT.

THEY DID, HUH?

WELL, I DON' T KNOW
WHO "THEY" ARE,

BUT THEY' RE NOT
RUNNING THIS PRISON.

I AM.

YOU SEEM TO THINK
YOU' RE A BIG SHOT, GORDAN.

WELL, GET IT
OUT OF YOUR HEAD.

THERE AREN' T
ANY BIG SHOTS IN HERE EXCEPT ME.

AND REMEMBER THIS:

IF TWO MEN IN
THIS PLACE KNOW ANYTHING, I KNOW IT.

DID YOU EVER DO
ANY WORK?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
WORK?

HONEST LABOR
WITH YOUR HANDS!

TAKE A LOOK
AT THESE MITTS.

YOU DON' T SEE ANY
CALLUSES ON THEM, DO YOU?

ONLY SAPS WORK.

YOU' RE GOING TO FIND
YOU' VE GOT IT

FIGURED ALL WRONG,
GORDAN.

I' M GOING
TO SHOW YOU IT' S A PRIVILEGE TO WORK,

A PRIVILEGE
YOU' VE GOT TO EARN.

YOU' RE GOING TO
MAKE ME WANT TO WORK?

THAT' S A HOT ONE.

THE MIRACLE MAN
OF SING SING.

YOU TALK
ABOUT CALLUSES.

I' M GOING TO
LET YOU SIT IN THAT CELL OF YOURS

ON THAT HARD,
IRON BENCH TILL YOU' VE GOT CALLUSES

THAT WILL MAKE YOU
LOVE TO STAND UP.

MAYBE, BUT YOU' LL
NEVER PUT THEM ON MY HANDS.

YOU' RE GOING
TO GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES AND PRAY,

PRAY FOR SOMEONE
TO LET YOU WORK, DO ANYTHING--

BREAK ROCK, SHOVEL COAL,
PICK UP GARBAGE,

ANYTHING TO GET
OUT OF THAT CELL.

TAKE IT EASY, WARDEN.

DON' T LET ME GET
ON YOUR NERVES.

YOU' RE GOING OUT
ON THAT ROCK PILE,

AND YOU' RE GOING TO
SWING A SLEDGE UNTIL YOU CAN' T STAND UP.

AND YOU' RE GOING
TO THANK HEAVEN FOR THE PRIVILEGE.

ALL RIGHT,
TAKE HIM BACK.

ALL RIGHT.

NOW I' LL
TELL YOU SOMETHING.

IF I FIND I GOT
A CHANCE TO CRASH OUT OF HERE,

AND I HAVE TO KILL
SOMEBODY TO DO IT,

I' D JUST AS WELL
KILL YOU AS THE NEXT GUY.

YES, I KNOW.

AND IF I WERE
IN YOUR PLACE AND HAD THE CHANCE,

I' D PROBABLY DO
THE SAME THING.

BUT THE POINT IS,
GORDAN, YOU HAVEN' T GOT A CHANCE,

NOT ONE
IN A MILLION.

YEAH? I DON' T
KNOW ABOUT THAT.

THERE AIN' T ONE GUY
IN A MILLION LIKE ME.

SURE THERE ARE,
THOUSANDS OF THEM.

THEY COME UP HERE
EVERY DAY, PRETTY MUCH THE SAME HISTORY.

IS THAT SO?

YOUR, UH, PARENTS
DIED WHEN YOU WERE A KID, DIDN' T THEY?

THAT' S MY BUSINESS.

KNOCKED AROUND
THE EAST SIDE, WITHOUT FOOD OR MONEY?

SMARTEST THIEF
AND TOUGHEST FIGHTER GOT TO BE LEADER?

THEN YOU GRADUATED
TO OLDER GAMES.

ONE AMBITION IN LIFE
WAS GET TO THE TOP,

BE BOSS OF THE OUTFIT,
GET THE SOFTEST PICKINGS.

THOUSANDS OF THEM.

AND IT' S TOO BAD
THAT KIDS HAVE TO START OUT LIKE THAT.

I' M BLEEDING
WITH GRIEF.

YOU KNOW, ONE OF
THESE DAYS, GORDAN,

YOU' RE GOING
TO FIND OUT THAT NO MAN HAS A SPOT

IN THIS WORLD
EXCEPT IN RELATION TO THOSE AROUND HIM.

YOU' VE GOT TO BE
USEFUL TO LIVE.

SAVE THAT FOR
SUNDAY, MISTER.

AND LET ME PASS
THE PLATE.

GORDAN.

PICK UP THAT MATCH YOU
THREW ON THE FLOOR.

PICK IT UP!

[BAND PLAYING MARCH]

HEY, GUARD! GUARD!

WHAT' S ALL
THE NOISE UP THERE?

WHAT' S
ALL THE MUSIC?

AW, COME ON.
YOU CAN TALK TO ME.

JUST ONCE. NOBODY' LL
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

WHAT' S ALL THAT MUSIC
OUT THERE?

SO YOU WON' T
OPEN UP, HUH?

ALL RIGHT!

KEEP YOUR BIG, FAT
MOUTH SHUT, ALL OF YOU!

TELL THE WARDEN
IF HE THINKS HE CAN

BREAK ME DOWN THIS WAY,
HE' S NUTS!

[SPITS]

[CHEERING]

[APPLAUSE]

[CELL DOOR SLAMS]

HEY, YOU! HEY, YOU!
CHIEF! CHIEF!

WHAT?

YOU CAN TALK TO ME,

PLEASE.

WELL, WHAT IS IT?

HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN
SITTING HERE?

ABOUT 3 MONTHS.

YOU' RE DAFFY! IT' S
OVER 3 YEARS NOW.

HOW MUCH MORE
HAVE I GOT?

THAT' S UP TO YOU.

WAIT A MINUTE!
DON' T GET EXCITED.

NOW, LOOK. LISTEN.

WILL YOU
TELL THE WARDEN SOMETHING FOR ME?

MAYBE.

WELL...

TELL HIM I' M READY
FOR THAT ROCK PILE.

NOW, LISTEN. DON' T LET
ANYBODY AROUND HERE

GET THE IDEA I WANT
TO WORK, SEE?

THAT AIN' T THE IDEA!

BUT, WELL...

I' LL DO ANYTHING
TO GET OUT OF HERE.

I' LL TELL THE WARDEN.

JUST CALM YOURSELF
AND SIT DOWN.

I CAN' T SIT DOWN!

TELL HIM...TELL HIM
I GOT THOSE CALLUSES.

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING
TO DO? BREAK YOUR BACK?

BOY, THIS IS
A PLEASURE!

YOU MUST BE NUTS!

COME ON! COME ON!
KNOCK ON IT!

Guard: GORDAN!
HEY, GORDAN!

YOU HAVE A VISITOR.
CLEAN UP.

A VISITOR?
THAT' S RIGHT.

OH. OH, YEAH,
THANKS.

LOOK OUT YOU
DON' T BREAK THAT.

NOW, MISS,
DON' T GET TOUGH. REGULATIONS.

OK, BOB. WARDEN' S

Guard:

TOMMY!

TOMMY, DARLING!
KAY, HONEY!

OH, I TRIED
TO SEE YOU.

I CAME UP EVERY
SATURDAY, BUT THEY WOULDN' T LET ME.

I COULDN' T FIND OUT
ANYTHING, AND I-- I KNOW.

THEY KEPT ME LOCKED
UP ALL THE TIME,

WOULDN' T LET ME
TALK TO ANYBODY,

TRYING TO
BREAK ME DOWN.

HOW ARE YOU
GETTING ALONG?

ALL RIGHT.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

YEAH.

EXCEPT YOU' RE
THERE IN NEW YORK, AND I' M HERE IN A CELL.

ONLY 30 MILES
BETWEEN US,

THAT' S THE ONLY
DIFFERENCE.

I KEEP THINKING ABOUT
YOU ALL THE TIME.

DO YOU STILL
CARE FOR ME?

I LOVE YOU, TOMMY.
YEAH?

WELL, THEN,
DON' T COME UP HERE

DRESSED UP LIKE
THAT ANYMORE. WHY, TOMMY--

WHAT' S THE MATTER
WITH YOU? YOU WANT ME TO GO CRAZY?

I' M SORRY.
I...JUST WANTED TO LOOK NICE FOR YOU.

I KNOW, BUT YOU DON' T
HAVE TO LOOK TOO GOOD.

AND...AND DON' T EVER
COME UP TO SEE ME AGAIN ON A SATURDAY.

WHY?
BECAUSE I TELL YOU NOT TO, THAT' S WHY.

SATURDAY' S A BAD LUCK
DAY FOR ME.

I' VE BEEN THINKING
A LOT ABOUT IT UP HERE.

THAT CRAZY
SUPERSTITION?

NONSENSE.
YEAH?

I GOT CAUGHT
ON SATURDAY, SENTENCED ON SATURDAY,

BROUGHT UP TO THIS
DUMP ON SATURDAY.

YOU TELLING ME?

YEAH, AND JUST
TO MAKE IT BINDING,

I WAS BORN
ON SATURDAY.

AND YOU MET ME
ON SATURDAY. WHAT ABOUT THAT?

YEAH...THAT' S RIGHT.

I' M NOT SO SURE
ABOUT YOU.

I DON' T KNOW
HOW YOU' RE GOING TO TURN OUT, EITHER.

YOU DON' T, HUH?
NO, I DON' T, HUH?

YOU BET I DO.

I WAS ONLY
KIDDING YOU.

YOU' RE NOT MAD?
NO, FORGET IT.

IT' S ONLY THIS JOINT
GETS UNDER MY SKIN.

BUT YOU' LL BE
OUT SOON.

I' M BEGINNING
TO WONDER.

WHY?

DIDN' T CROWLEY FIX
IT WITH THE WARDEN?

HE FIXED IT SO GOOD,
HE GOT HIMSELF THROWN OUT.

HE HASN' T
EVEN WRITTEN.

WHAT' S HE DOING?
TAKING A REST CURE?

I HAVEN' T SEEN HIM,
BUT I WILL.

TELL HIM TO HURRY UP
AND DO SOMETHING.

TOMMY...

YOU WON' T--YOU WON' T
HAVE TO SERVE YOUR WHOLE SENTENCE?

DON' T WORRY.
I WON' T.

I' M GETTING
OUT OF THIS JOINT, CROWLEY OR NO CROWLEY.

I' LL KICK MY--
Guard: TIME' S UP, GORDAN.

ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.

WELL...

THAT SPLITS US
UP, HONEY.

WILL I SEE YOU
NEXT WEEK?

EVERY WEEK, TOMMY.
TWICE A WEEK.

LET' S GO, MISS.
COME ON.

GOOD-BYE, DARLING.
GOOD-BYE.

ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS A SAMPLE OF
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING DONE

IN THE CLASSIFICATION CLINIC.

THESE PARTICULAR TESTS WILL
NOT BE USED IN EVERY CASE.

THE TEST WILL VARY
FROM MAN TO MAN.

ROCKFORD,
YOU' RE FIRST.

NOW, WATCH ME,
THEN DO JUST THE SAME.

VERY GOOD.
THANKS.

DO YOU KNOW
THE ALPHABET?

UH-HUH.

MULTIPLICATION
AND DIVISION?

OH, YEAH.

ANSWER THIS QUESTION
"YES" OR "NO."

THE ANSWER TO THIS
QUESTION IS "YES,"

UNLESS 2 TIMES 2
MAKES 4,

IN WHICH CASE
THE ANSWER IS "NO."

THE ANSWER IS "NO."

CORRECT.

YOU HAVE, I TAKE IT,
ENCOUNTERED SOME EDUCATION.

I' VE ENCOUNTERED
ENOUGH EDUCATION

TO KNOW
YOUR SYSTEM HERE NEEDS OVERHAULING.

WHY DON' T
YOU FIND OUT MY EDUCATION FIRST

BEFORE LETTING ME
PLAY AROUND WITH BLOCKS?

IT' S A REGULATION TEST.
WE HAVE OUR REASONS.

WHAT IS YOUR
EDUCATION? COLLEGE?

GRADUATED CUM LAUDE.

YOU KNOW, AS A MATTER OF
FACT, WE' RE FRATERNITY BROTHERS, DOCTOR.

I HAVE ONE OF THESE
SCHOLARSHIP KEYS.

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE
IS MINE IS DOWNSTAIRS IN THE VAULT.

IF THAT KEY' LL
UNLOCK ANYTHING, I' M GONNA GET ONE.

WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE
TO WORK? LIBRARY?

NO. I' VE GIVEN UP
READING.

WELL, UH...WOULD YOU
LIKE SOME PHYSICAL WORK?

YEAH, IT MIGHT TAKE
MY MIND OFF THINGS.

GOOD. I' LL PUT YOU
IN THE SHOE FACTORY.

HERE YOU ARE.
GOOD LUCK.

THANK YOU.
NEXT.

COME OVER TO
THE CELL AND SEE ME SOMETIME, DOCTOR.

WE' LL DISCUSS
THE PSYCHOPATHIC NEUROSIS

OF THE SUBNORMAL
STRATA,

IF YOU KNOW WHAT I
MEAN, AND I THINK YOU SHOULD.

THAT' S ALL RIGHT,
ROCKFORD.

GOOD DAY.

YES, SIR.

NOW, TAKE YOUR TIME.
THINK HARD.

PUT THOSE LITTLE PIECES
IN THE GROOVES THEY FIT.

SIT DOWN.

WELL, I HAVEN' T
PLAYED WITH PUZZLES FOR QUITE A WHILE.

I MIGHT BE
A LITTLE RUSTY.

UH, COULDN' T WE
FLY A KITE

OR CUT OUT
PAPER DOLLS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT?

ARE YOU GOING TO SIT
DOWN, OR AM I GOING TO CALL A GUARD?

I' M GOING TO SIT
DOWN, SWEETHEART.

AW! NOW LOOK WHAT
I WENT AND DID.

TSK! TSK! TSK! TSK!
I' M SORRY.

THAT' S ALL RIGHT,
GORDAN. SIT DOWN.

BUT THE CHAIR' S
FULL OF INK!

I SAID SIT DOWN.

[RING]

HELLO?

JUST A MOMENT.

WHAT' S
THE ASSIGNMENT FOR NAYSON, DOCTOR?

WHAT DID HE DO
ON THIS TEST?

UH, 91 SECONDS.

HMM. WELL, THAT' S
NOT VERY GOOD.

PUT HIM ON THE COAL
SHOVELING CREW.

PUT HIM ON THE COAL
SHOVELING CREW.

I' M, UH...READY TO
START NOW, DOCTOR.

FINE.

HOW' S THAT?

FINE.
YOU' RE PRETTY SMART WHEN YOU WANT TO BE.

NOT SO SMART...OR
I WOULDN' T BE HERE.

SHOE FACTORY, GORDAN.

NEXT.

HEY, DOC, ... WITH
A CARD LIKE THIS.

WHAT?

...TO MY HEART.

WHAT?
YOU HAVEN' T HEARD?

[BABBLING]

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

[BABBLING]

WHAT?

[BABBLING]

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING--

[BABBLING]

ARE YOU--JOE.
JOE.

[BABBLING]

OK, COME ON.

[BABBLING]

GO ON AND SIT DOWN.
SIT DOWN AND KEEP QUIET.

NEXT. NEXT!

SIT DOWN.

YES.

YOUR CARD.

NOW...PUT THOSE
LITTLE PIECES IN THE GROOVES THEY FIT.

HEY. YOU GET SET?

YEAH. SHOE SHOP.

THAT' S SWELL!
PERFECT!

YOU AND I ARE
GOING TO SEE A LOT OF EACH OTHER.

YEAH?
YEAH.

YOU KNOW,
YOU MADE A BIG IMPRESSION ON ME.

YEAH?
SURE.

THE FIRST MINUTE
I SAW YOU,

I FIGURED YOU WERE
TOO SMART A GUY

TO HANG AROUND HERE
VERY LONG.

NOT SO SMART
TO BE IN HERE,

BUT HOW' D YOU
FIGURE THAT OUT?

WHY, THE WAY YOU
LOOKED, THE SHAPE OF YOUR HEAD,

THE WAY YOU CARRY
YOURSELF.

I CAN TELL.
YEAH?

AND ONCE YOU
GET STARTED,

THERE' S NOTHING ON
EARTH CAN STOP YOU.

WHAT ARE YOU?
A FORTUNE TELLER?

NO. I' M JUST
A FELLOW THAT THINKS

YOU' RE A LOT
BRIGHTER THAN

THE GUYS THAT RUN
THIS INSTITUTE.

YOU GOT
SOMETHING THERE.

WELL, I' M A PRETTY
SMART BOZO MYSELF.

TOGETHER, WE MIGHT
GET SOMETHING DONE.

YOU CAN CERTAINLY
SLING THE LANGUAGE.

DON' T LET THAT
WORRY YOU, TOMMY.

THERE ARE A LOT OF
PEOPLE SAY THE PEN

IS MIGHTIER
THAN THE SWORD.

WITH ME, THAT' S JUST
A 50/50 PROPOSITION.

[CHUCKLING]
I GUESS SO. YEAH.

COME ON! COME ON!
OPEN UP!

10 MINUTES, AND YOU
HAVEN' T PUT ONE PIECE IN PLACE YET.

WHAT' S THE TROUBLE?

WELL, I GUESS--
I GUESS I' M COLOR-BLIND.

HEY, DOC,
WHERE ARE YOU SENDING ME?

GARBAGE DETAIL.

THANKS! HUH?

STEVE, IT' S AWFUL
BEING AWAY FROM YOU.

I KNOW.
I' M WORRIED ABOUT YOU.

ARE YOU STRONG ENOUGH
TO HAVE COME, HUH?

YOU MUST BE CAREFUL,
YOU KNOW.

YES, I' M ALL RIGHT,
DARLING.

IT MEANS EVERYTHING
TO SEE YOU.

THERE' S TOMMY GORDAN,
ANN.

Steve: TOMMY,
IT' S MY WIFE.

GLAD TO KNOW YOU.
Ann: HOW DO YOU DO?

ALL RIGHT, LADY.
COME ON.

OVER THERE.

SIT DOWN.

SIT DOWN.

SHE DIDN' T UNDERSTAND.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME
SHE' S BEEN HERE.

ALL RIGHT.

HOW DO YOU FEEL?

JUST FINE, STEVE.

NO, I MEAN SERIOUSLY.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

SURE I AM.

I NEVER FELT BETTER
IN MY LIFE.

DOCTOR SAYS
I' M FINE, TOO.

BUT AREN' T YOU...
HOW LONG WILL IT BE?

[WHISPERS]
And when is it going to happen?

Not for a few weeks yet.

WHO' S GOING
TO BE WITH YOU?

YOU CAN' T BE ALONE,
CAN YOU?

OH, I WON' T
BE ALONE, DARLING. I' LL HAVE A NURSE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
A NURSE?

ANN...

THERE' S SOMETHING
I WANT TO TELL YOU.

YES, DEAR?

STEVE, WHAT IS IT?

MAYBE YOU WON' T
BE ALONE AFTER ALL.

STEVE--
SHH.

NOW DON' T ASK
ANY QUESTIONS.

I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW
THAT YOU WON' T BE ALONE.

FOR HEAVEN' S SAKES,
ANN, DON' T WORRY.

DON' T SPOIL EVERYTHING.

WHATEVER ELSE
YOU KNOW ABOUT ME,

YOU KNOW THAT I WON' T DO
ANYTHING STUPID.

OK, 68-431.

TOMMY.

OH, DARLING, I COULD
HARDLY WAIT TO SEE YOU.

SAY, WHAT ARE YOU
MADE UP FOR, ANYWAY? WHERE' S YOUR CIGAR?

WELL, YOU TOLD ME NOT
TO LOOK TOO GOOD.

I DIDN' T TELL YOU TO LOOK
LIKE YOU WERE GOING TO BUST UP SALOONS WITH AN AX.

DARLING, DON' T BE SORE.
I' VE GOT SOME SWELL NEWS FOR YOU.

YEAH? SPILL IT.
I NEED IT BAD.

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU' RE GOING TO BE OUT OF HERE
BEFORE LONG. HOW?

WELL, ED' S WORKING
ON A NEW ANGLE.

YEAH? WHO TOLD YOU?

ED HIMSELF.
HE' S PUTTING ON PLENTY OF PRESSURE

WITH THE BOSSES, TOMMY,
AND HE' S GETTING RESULTS.

WELL, WHY DIDN' T HE
TELL ME ABOUT IT?

I' M THE ONE THAT' S
DOING THE BIT.

I DON' T KNOW.

I GUESS HE DIDN' T WANT
TO GET YOU ALL STEAMED UP BEFORE YOU WERE SET.

HE' S BEEN WORKING
NIGHT AND DAY.

I WONDER WHAT PUT
THE SMOKE UNDER HIM ALL OF A SUDDEN.

I DID.

YOU KNOW, HE WAS ALWAYS SORT OF STUCK ON ME.
HE WAS, HUH?

YES, AND NOW I' VE GOT HIM
TO WHERE HE' LL DO ANYTHING FOR ME.

YEAH, AND TO YOU.

LISTEN, I DON' T WANT YOU
PLAYING AROUND WITH THAT GUY, SEE?

NOT IF I HAVE
TO STAY HERE THE REST OF MY LIFE.

OH, DON' T GET EXCITED.

HE WON' T GET TO FIRST BASE
WITH ME AND YOU KNOW IT.

I KNOW HE WON' T
SPRING ME OUT OF HERE UNLESS HE DOES.

WHAT' S THE MATTER
WITH YOU?

DON' T YOU KNOW THE MORE
HE GETS STUCK ON YOU,

THE LONGER HE' LL TRY
TO KEEP ME HERE?

HE' S PUTTING PLENTY
OF PRESSURE ON, HUH?

THE ONLY PRESSURE HE' S
PUTTING ON ANYBODY IS ON YOU.

WELL, I WASN' T GETTING
ANY FUN OUT OF IT,

BUT I' VE GOT
TO HELP YOU, TOMMY.

I' VE GOT TO DO
SOMETHING FOR YOU.

I KNOW, BABE,

BUT I DON' T WANT YOU
TO HELP ME THAT WAY.

LAY OFF THE GUY,
WILL YA?

YOU' RE MY GIRL, EVEN IF
I AM UP HERE, AIN' T YA?

YOU KNOW I AM, DARLING.

YEAH...

SOMETHING ELSE FOR ME
TO WORRY ABOUT.

[MACHINERY CLATTERING]

HEY, MIKE!
WHAT ARE YOU HANGING AROUND HERE FOR?

THAT AIN' T THE KIND OF GARBAGE
YOU' RE SUPPOSED TO PICK UP.

WELL, I KINDA
LIKE IT HERE.

WELL, HURRY UP AND GET BACK

HELLO, BLACK JACK.

HAPPY IN YOUR WORK,
GORDAN?

YEAH. TICKLED TO DEATH.

DOES MIKE KNOW ABOUT IT?

SURE, HE' S IN.
LOOK AT HIM.

ONE THING I DON' T GET--

HOW YOU' RE GOING TO...

LOOK, KID, I DON' T SUPPOSE
THERE' S A DOOR OR LOCK

EVER BEEN MADE
IN THIS WORLD THAT YOU CAN' T OPEN...

IF YOU WANT TO.
I GUESS YOU' RE RIGHT.

SORRY TO INTERRUPT YOU BOYS.
YOU KNOW YOU' RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TALK HERE.

WE WERE TELLING JOKES.
JOKES, HUH?

WELL, DO ME A FAVOR, WILL YA?
GLAD TO, WARDEN.

SAVE THOSE JOKES FOR LATER.

HE' S GOT WORSE THAN THAT
COMING TO HIM LATER. STICK HIM IN SOLITARY.

MAYBE SOMEDAY
THEY' LL REALIZE

THEY HAVEN' T GOT
A CHANCE IN THE WORLD TO GET AWAY WITH THIS.

WE...DIDN' T DO
SO GOOD, DID WE?

TAKE HIM AWAY.

COME ON, COME ON.

Tommy: HEY, WARDEN.

WHAT?

COME HERE,
IF YOU DON' T MIND.

MAYBE YOU BETTER
LOCK THIS.

WHAT' S THE MATTER,
GORDAN?

YOU LOSING YOUR NERVE?

DON' T TELL ME THIS PLACE
HAS SOFTENED YOU UP.

DON' T THINK BECAUSE
I' M PLAYING IT SMART THAT I' M GETTING SOFT.

WELL, MAYBE I' M GIVING
MYSELF TOO MUCH CREDIT FOR YOUR GOOD BEHAVIOR,

BUT I' M GLAD YOU DIDN' T
TRY IT, GORDAN.

YOU' D PROBABLY BE ON
YOUR WAY TO THE MORGUE BY NOW.

IF I WAS, YOU WOULDN' T
CRY ABOUT IT.

WELL, MAYBE
YOU' RE RIGHT.

HEY, HOW' D A GUY LIKE YOU
EVER BECOME A COPPER?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WELL, I MEAN YOU AIN' T A BAD GUY AFTER ALL.

YOU DIDN' T THINK SO MUCH
OF ME WHEN YOU FIRST CAME UP HERE.

YOU WERE
PRETTY TOUGH THEN.

I' M STILL PRETTY TOUGH.

I JUST HAPPENED TO REALIZE
TODAY IS SATURDAY,

AND SATURDAY IS ONE DAY
I CAN' T WIN, THAT' S ALL.

OH, SO THAT' S
WHAT IT IS.

17-365.

17-365.

14-389.

14-389.

HEY, GORDAN.
THE WARDEN WANTS TO SEE YOU RIGHT AWAY.

I' LL TAKE THIS OVER.
THE WARDEN? THANKS.

45-136.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

COME IN.

GORDAN' S HERE, SIR.

ALL RIGHT.
SEND HIM IN.

COME ON.

MORNING.

MORNING, GORDAN.

WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

NOW WHAT ARE YOU GOING
TO DO, FIRE ME?

TELEGRAM FOR YOU.

TELEGRAM?

WHY, THEY' RE CRAZY.

SOMEBODY' S KIDDING ME,
WARDEN.

NO, IT' S TRUE.
WE INVESTIGATED IT.

NO, THERE AIN' T A CHANCE.

SHE WAS JUST UP HERE.
THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH HER.

IT' S AN AUTOMOBILE
ACCIDENT.

SHE' S NOT EXPECTED
TO LIVE.

KAY.

SHE CAN' T DIE, WARDEN.

IF I COULD ONLY DO
SOMETHING.

WARDEN, SHE' S THE ONLY
THING I EVER HAD...

AND I CAN' T DO A THING.

BEING BURIED IN HERE WAS...

WAS NEVER REALLY TOUGH
UNTIL NOW.

I KNOW.

YOU' RE HIT PRETTY HARD.

SHE' S THE ONLY THING
I EVER HAD.

GORDAN...

SUPPOSE I TOLD YOU
THERE WAS A TRAIN LEAVING IN 20 MINUTES,

AND I LET YOU GO
TO IT.

ON YOUR HONOR, WOULD YOU
COME BACK TONIGHT?

OF COURSE, YOU KNOW
WHAT IT' D MEAN TO ME

IF I LET YOU GO AND YOU
DIDN' T COME BACK.

I UNDERSTAND.

WARDEN, I NEVER BROKE
MY WORD, SEE?

AND I WON' T BREAK IT NOW
TO A GOOD GUY.

AFTER WHAT YOU' RE DOING
FOR ME, I' LL COME BACK.

EVEN IF IT MEANS THE CHAIR,
I' LL COME BACK.

ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU, WARDEN.

GOOD LUCK.

[FAST JAZZ PLAYING]

CROWLEY HERE?
AND HOW.

HE' S BEEN WAITING
A COUPLE OF HOURS AND, BOY, IS HE BURNED UP.

HE' S DOWN AT THE BAR.

LEAVE THE BOTTLE.
YES, MR. CROWLEY.

HELLO, ED.

OH, DID YOU HAVE
TO TAKE THIS LONG?

WHAT DID
THE CROAKER SAY? IS SHE HURT BAD?

PLENTY, BUT
A SWELL FOOL YOU ARE,

TRYING TO START SOMETHING
IN A CAR GOING 50.

HOW DID I KNOW
SHE' D JUMP?

YOU COULD HAVE HELD HER.
AW, SHUT UP.

DID SHE SQUAWK?
NO, BUT SHE' S GOING TO.

WHY DIDN' T YOU THROW A SCARE INTO HER?
SHE DOESN' T SCARE.

THINKS SHE' S GOING
TO DIE ANYWAY.

YOU' RE LUCKY
THAT MUG OF HERS IS STILL IN PRISON.

THAT ISN' T WORRYING ME.

IT' S JUST THAT I AIN' T
ACHING TO GET THE SETUP THERE MYSELF.

BEFORE SHE KICKS OFF,
YOU BETTER FIND A WAY TO MAKE HER CLEAR ME.

SHE WILL...
FOR $10,000.

WHAT FOR?
TO HELP GORDAN.

SHE STILL THINKS SHE
CAN GET HIM OUT OF PRISON.

SHE SAID THAT?
YEAH.

IT' S A LOT OF MONEY.
LOT OF MONEY.

SING SING' S
A LOT OF PRISON.

ALL RIGHT, DRAW UP
THE PAPERS. I' LL GET HER TO SIGN ' EM.

WHY DIDN' T SHE GET
KILLED WHEN SHE JUMPED? I NEVER GET A BREAK.

THAT' S TOUGH.

[TRAIN BELL CLANGING]

I MUST BE GOING
NUTTY, JOE. WHAT' S WRONG?

I JUST SAW
TOM GORDAN GO BY.

WENT UP THE RIVER
4 MONTHS AGO. 5- TO 30-YEAR RAP.

SURE?
GONNA MAKE SURE.

WAIT FOR ME.

SAY, SISTER, WHO WAS
THE FELLA JUST CAME IN?

I DON' T KNOW.

WHERE' D HE GO?

I DON' T KNOW.
UPSTAIRS, PROBABLY.

VERY POSSIBLE.

NOW DO YOU KNOW WHO HE
IS OR WHERE HE WENT?

NO. HONEST, I DON' T.

THE ELEVATOR WASN' T DOWN.
HE WENT UP THOSE STAIRS.

GIVE ME A LIST
OF THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE HERE.

YES, SIR.

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

I' M SORRY. MISS MANNERS
CAN' T SEE ANYONE.

NEVER MIND THAT.
HOW IS SHE?

RESTING EASILY.
SHE' S A LITTLE BETTER TODAY.

HAS SHE--
DOES SHE HAVE A GOOD CHANCE TO PULL THROUGH?

TOMMY.

IT' S REALLY YOU

OH, I' M SO HAPPY.

I' VE PRAYED ALL THE TIME
TO SEE YOU JUST ONCE MORE BEFORE--

ONCE MORE?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, ONCE MORE?

YOU' RE GONNA BE

I' LL BE ALL RIGHT

DON' T LEAVE ME, TOMMY.

I WON' T LEAVE YOU, HONEY.
HONEST, I WON' T.

WE' RE GONNA BE TOGETHER

YES. ALWAYS.

AND YOU' RE GONNA

WHY, THE NURSE SAYS

EVERYTHING IS GONNA BE
WONDERFUL, HONEY.

OH, IF--
IF I' D ONLY KNOWN YOU WERE FREE,

I WOULDN' T HAVE--

WOULDN' T HAVE WHAT?

GONE WITH HIM
IN HIS CAR.

YOU WERE RIGHT
ABOUT HIM, TOMMY.

BUT I--I STILL BELIEVED
HE COULD HELP US.

I HAD TO TAKE A CHANCE.

WITH WHO?

[WHISPERING]
Oh, what' s the difference?

COME ON. TELL ME.
CROWLEY.

CROWLEY?

YEAH.

HE SAID THAT THE BOSSES
WOULDN' T HELP YOU.

THEY DUMPED YOU.

HE SAID RANDALL,
THIS BIG SHOT OUT IN SOUTHAMPTON,

HE COULD GET YOU OUT.

ED WAS TAKING
$5,000 TO HIM.

HE WANTED ME IN ON IT.

OH, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
IT WAS A LIE.

HE STARTED
TO PLAY ROUGH,

AND I JUMPED
OUT OF THE CAR.

THAT' S WHAT
HAPPENED, HUH?

WHY DIDN' T YOU SQUAWK?

YOU COULD HAVE SENT HIM
TO SING SING, WHERE I WOULD HAVE FIXED HIM.

I WAS GOING TO--

WELL, WHY DIDN' T YOU?

I' M MAKING HIM GIVE ME
$10,000 TO CLEAR HIM.

CLEAR HIM?

WHILE YOU LIE HERE ALMOST
DYING, YOU' RE TALKING ABOUT CLEARING HIM?

I--I THOUGHT IT MIGHT
HELP GET YOU OUT.

[SOBBING]

THAT' S MIGHTY SWELL
OF YOU, KAY.

MIGHTY SWELL.

BUT TAKE IT EASY NOW,
WILL YOU, KID?

WILL YOU TAKE IT EASY?

PLEASE. PLEASE.

TOMMY.

TOMMY, WHERE
ARE YOU GOING?

I' LL BE RIGHT BACK.

DON' T DO IT, TOMMY.
PLEASE DON' T DO IT.

OH, COME BACK, TOMMY.

YOU PROMISED YOU' D--
YOU' D STAY WITH ME.

YOU CAN' T LEAVE ME,
TOMMY.

YOU' VE GOT TO STAY
WITH ME.

COME ON, KAY.
I TOLD YOU I' D BE RIGHT BACK.

YOU THINK I' M GONNA
LET THAT RAT KEEP RUNNING LOOSE?

DON' T DO IT, TOMMY.
PLEASE DON' T DO IT.

GIVE ME THE GUN,

FOR MY SAKE, PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT, I WON' T.

HONEST, I WON' T.

GIVE IT TO ME.

GET ME SOME WATER,
PLEASE.

I' LL GET YOU SOME.

THIS WAY, PLEASE.

THANKS.
OK, MR. CROWLEY.

KAY?

OH, KAY?

IT' S ED.

OH, HERE YOU ARE.

GEE, I' M GLAD YOU' RE
FEELING BETTER, BABE.

MORRIS TOLD ME
ABOUT THE MONEY.

YOU OUGHT TO KNOW YOU CAN
HAVE ANYTHING I' VE GOT

WITHOUT PUTTING
ON THE PRESSURE.

I LIED TO YOU. GET OUT.

I DON' T WANT ANYTHING.
GET OUT.

CHANGED YOUR MIND, HUH?
WELL, LET ME TELL YOU, YOU AIN' T GONNA SQUAWK.

SHE AIN' T GONNA SQUAWK.

GORDAN?

YEAH. I WAS GONNA
LOOK YOU UP.

DON' T TOMMY!
DON' T! TOMMY!

TOMMY!

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

OH, UH, MAY I USE
YOUR TELEPHONE, PLEASE?

WHY, YES.

GET ME POLICE
HEADQUARTERS QUICK.

[GUNSHOT]

[DOORKNOB RATTLING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

TOMMY, TOMMY, BEAT IT.
PLEASE, TOMMY.

THEY MUSTN' T
FIND YOU HERE. HURRY, DARLING.

HURRY, DARLING.
PLEASE, THE FIRE ESCAPE.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

BEAT IT, DARLING.

WHAT?!
WHAT' S GOING ON HERE?

CROWLEY, WHO DID IT?
WHO SHOT YOU?

WHO DID IT?

GORDAN.

Kay: NO. NO,
DON' T BELIEVE HIM. HE' S LYING TO YOU.

I--I SHOT HIM!

I--I SHOT HIM!

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

[RING]

WARDEN LONG' S RESIDENCE.

YES. JUST A MINUTE,
PLEASE.

IT' S FOR YOU, WALTER.

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY' S
OFFICE IN NEW YORK.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY?
THANK YOU.

YES? WARDEN LONG
SPEAKING.

HELLO, WARDEN.
HOW ARE YOU?

SAY, YOU' VE GOT
A PRISONER UP THERE

NAMED TOM GORDAN,
HAVEN' T YOU, DOING 5 TO 30?

STILL UP THERE,
ISN' T HE?

OH, ANOTHER ONE
OF THOSE CASES

OF LETTING A MAN OUT
FOR A DAY ON HIS HONOR, EH?

WELL, I WOULDN' T EXPECT
THIS ONE BACK TONIGHT.

HE MURDERED A MAN
NAMED ED CROWLEY THIS AFTERNOON.

YOU SURE
THERE' S NO MISTAKE?

NO.
IT' S AN AIRTIGHT CASE.

OFFICER RAGAN TAILED GORDAN
TO HIS GIRL' S APARTMENT.

SAW CROWLEY GO IN.
HEARD THE SHOT. BROKE IN.

GORDAN GOT AWAY,

BUT CROWLEY MADE
AN ANTEMORTEM STATEMENT THAT GORDAN DID IT.

WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF HIS HON?

I THINK GORDAN
WILL BE BACK TONIGHT TO GIVE HIMSELF UP.

YES.

THANK YOU.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

QUIT WORRYING,
WILL YOU?

I TELL YOU,
THIS JOINT AIN' T HOT.

WE HAVEN' T PULLED A TRICK
SINCE YOU WENT UP.

IT' S HOT AS LONG
AS I' M HERE.

I GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE
AND OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

YEAH, BUT HOW?
THE COPS WILL BE WATCHING ALL THE TRAINS.

HOW ABOUT A PLANE?
HUH?

I SAID HOW
ABOUT A PLANE?

WHY DON' T YOU SHUT UP?
THAT' S A SMART IDEA.

ASKING FOR A PLANE WOULD BE
LIKE SITTING RIGHT DOWN IN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR.

I' LL GRAB A BOAT.

YEAH, THAT' S RISKY, TOO.
THEY' LL BE WATCHING THE DOCKS ALONG THE WHOLE WATERFRONT.

THAT' S THE ONLY CHANCE
I' VE GOT--SNEAK OUT ON SOME TRAMP STEAMER.

YOU KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE.
FIX IT.

THEY' LL WANT A LOT OF DOUGH.

I' VE GOT PLENTY.

HOW' S THAT?

SWELL. THAT' LL
TAKE CARE OF IT.

I' LL FIX IT.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

COME IN.

ANY NEWS?
NO, SIR.

TOUGH BREAK
FOR YOU, WARDEN.

WELL, I SUPPOSE THIS
WILL BRING THE NEWSPAPERS

AND THE POLITICIANS
DOWN ON MY NECK.

THEY' VE JUST BEEN WAITING
FOR MY FOOT TO SLIP IN THE PAROLE SYSTEM.

WELL, SIR, I WANTED
TO TELL YOU THAT ALL OF US ARE WITH YOU.

THANKS, MAC.

OH, I GUESS WE ALL
MAKE MISTAKES.

I' VE GIVEN THE SAME
PRIVILEGE TO LOTS OF PRISONERS,

AND THEY' VE ALL
COME BACK.

IT' S FUNNY.
I THOUGHT I KNEW GORDAN.

AS A MATTER OF FACT,
I WAS SURER OF HIM THAN ANY OF THE REST.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

WHO' S THERE?

PETE.
OPEN UP.

IT' S ALL FIXED.
YEAH? SWELL.

WHEN DO I GO?
TONIGHT.

YOU BEEN DRINKING
ALL NIGHT? YEAH.

YOU BETTER GET
SOME SHUTEYE.

YOU' RE GONNA BE STANDING
ON YOUR HEAD ON A STEAMER FROM TONIGHT ON.

STICK AROUND AND KEEP
AN EYE OUT, WILL YOU?

COME ON. GET UP
OUT OF THERE. LEAVE ME ALONE.

COME ON. COME ON.
BEAT IT.

Man: GOOD MORNING, WARDEN.
WHAT' S THE DOPE?

Warden: SORRY, BOYS.
I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY.

GIVE US A BREAK, WARDEN.
THIS IS THE BIGGEST STORY IN YEARS.

YOU KNOW AS MUCH ABOUT IT
AS I DO, I TELL YOU. I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY.

BUT JUST A MINUTE,
WARDEN.

WARDEN' S OFFICE. YES?

YES. RIGHT AWAY, SIR.

THE GOVERNOR' S
CALLING, SIR.

YES, GOVERNOR?

[BOAT HORN BLOWING]

ALL SET, TOMMY.
COME ON.

THIS IS NICK.
HE' LL TAKE CARE OF YOU. HIYA.

HERE. SOME MORE DOPE
ON YOUR ESCAPE.

YOU MIGHT HAVE BROUGHT ME
SOME FLOWERS, TOO. THANKS FOR THE HELP.

OK, TOMMY.
GOOD LUCK. SO LONG.

THIS WAY.

FOLLOW ME.
YEAH. IN A MINUTE.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

[DOOR OPENS]

HIYA, WARDEN.

I TOLD YOU I' D COME BACK,

EVEN IF IT MEANT THE CHAIR.

I' VE TOLD YOU THE TRUTH.

YOU' VE GOT
TO BELIEVE ME.

HE WENT BACK.
HE GAVE HIMSELF UP.

HE PLAYED SQUARE WITH
ALL OF YOU. NOW YOU WANT TO MURDER HIM FOR IT.

I KILLED CROWLEY,
I TELL YOU! I KILLED HIM!

PLEASE, YOU' VE GOT
TO HELP ME SAVE HIM.

SORRY, MISS MANNERS.
THERE' S NOTHING I CAN DO BUT PROSECUTE HIM.

BUT YOU CAN' T
WANT TO CONVICT AN INNOCENT PERSON.

I TELL YOU, I DID IT.
PUT ME ON TRIAL.

PLEASE. YOU BELIEVE ME,
DON' T YOU?

NO, I DON' T.
YOU' LL NEVER MAKE A JURY BELIEVE YOU.

YOU MIGHT HAVE EXCEPT
THAT CROWLEY HAPPENED

TO LIVE LONG ENOUGH
TO TELL WHO SHOT HIM.

BUT HE LIED!
HE HATED TOMMY! HE TRIED TO KILL HIM.

HE' D HAVE DONE ANYTHING
TO GET EVEN.

NO USE, MISS MANNERS.
GORDAN GOES ON TRIAL TOMORROW.

ALL RIGHT, YOU PUT HIM
ON TRIAL IF YOU' VE GOT TO HAVE A VICTIM.

I' LL GET A LAWYER!
I' LL FIGHT YOU!

I' LL FIGHT FOR HIM
ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPREME COURT!

BUT YOU' LL
NEVER KILL HIM!

YOU' LL NEVER KILL HIM!

SO THAT WAS MY LAST CHANCE
FOR APPEAL, HUH?

YES. I' M SORRY,
GORDAN.

WELL, I' M GETTING
THE FULL COURSE IN THIS JOINT.

I WORKED MY WAY RIGHT UP
TO THE DEATH HOUSE.

WHEN I GRADUATE, IT' LL BE
OUT THE OTHER DOOR, HUH?

YES.

WELL, WELL, THE SAME
OLD HAPPY FACES.

HIYA, TOMMY!
WELCOME TO CINCINNATI!

HIYA, SWEETHEART.

ON THE LEVEL, WARDEN,
THE OTHER PLACE HAD A MUCH BETTER VIEW.

Prisoner: OH, TOMMY, I COULDN' T
STAND WAITING FOR YOU.

Second prisoner: ANOTHER
CHICKEN TO BE FRIED.

Third prisoner:
HELLO, KID.

HIYA, GENTLEMEN.

I TOLD YOU HE WAS
A CINCH TO END UP HERE.

WHEN YOU DUCKED THAT
MURDER RAP WITH US, YOU WAS ONLY PLAYING HOOKY.

YEAH. AND THE SAME
GOES DOUBLE FOR ME.

YOU SAID IT.

SO THIS IS IT, HUH?

WELL, WARDEN,
ANYTIME YOU GET LONELY

AND YOU WANT
TO HAVE A LITTLE CHAT, JUST COME RIGHT DOWN.

TAKE OFF YOUR SHOES
AND GIVE THEM TO ME. WHAT FOR?

WHAT FOR?
TO REST YOUR FEET.

MY FEET ARE ALL RIGHT.

I WISH YOU' D OPEN
THIS DOOR AND GIVE ME A CHANCE TO SHOW YOU.

REGULATIONS, GORDAN.

WHAT' S THE MATTER?
YOU THINK I GOT CALLUSES ON MY FEET, TOO?

HEY, WARDEN?
YEAH?

YOU KNOW THAT OLD
WATER MAIN THAT STARTS UP ON THE HILL?

MM-HMM.

WELL, YOU BETTER HAVE IT
PLUGGED UP,

BECAUSE I' VE BEEN
WORKING ON THAT BABY FOR 6 MONTHS.

I' D HAVE CRASHED OUT
OF HERE IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.

AND LISTEN.
IT WAS MY JOB, AND I WAS ON IT ALONE.

IF ANYBODY ELSE HAD BEEN
ON IT, I WOULDN' T HAVE TOLD YOU.

WOULDN' T HAVE TOLD YOU
ANYWAY IF I DIDN' T KNOW

THEY WERE GONNA WHEEL ME
OUT OF HERE PRETTY SOON.

YOU' RE A STRANGE
FELLA, GORDAN.

YOU WORKED 6 MONTHS
TO GET OUT OF HERE,

AND WHEN YOU FINALLY DO
GET OUT, YOU COME RIGHT BACK TO THE CHAIR.

I HAD YOU FIGURED
FROM THE BEGINNING.

YOU' RE NOT AS TOUGH
AS YOU PRETEND.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE.
DON' T EVER SAY I AIN' T TOUGH!

IF I EVER GET A CHANCE
TO CRASH OUT OF THIS DEATH TRAP, I' LL DO IT!

AND DON' T YOU FORGET IT!

ALL RIGHT, GORDAN.

I AIN' T AS TOUGH
AS I PRETEND, HUH?

MR. WARDEN?
YES?

HOW ABOUT A CIGAR, HUH?

[CHUCKLES]

YOU' RE A PEST,
KAGEL.

OH, IF YOU DON' T LIKE
ME, I' LL LEAVE ANYTIME.

HEY, 8 BALL?

IF YOU WAS REFERRING
TO ME, MY NAME IS MR. ALEXANDER HAMILTON.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I' LL GIVE YOU BUTTS
ON THIS CIGAR. IT' S A LONG ONE.

I WON' T HAVE TIME
TO FINISH IT.

WELL, THAT' S DIFFERENT.

I SURE DO
APPRECIATE THAT.

SAY, GORDAN,

THAT TALK ABOUT BUSTING
OUT OF HERE--THAT AIN' T GONNA DO YOU NO GOOD.

WELL, I JUST DON' T WANT
NOBODY THINKING THIS PLACE SOFTENED ME UP.

HE' S RIGHT, TOMMY.

I KNOW A GUY WHO SPENT
6 MONTHS DIGGING HIS WAY OUT OF THIS PRISON

AND CAME UP
IN THE WARDEN' S OFFICE.

[PLAYING SLOW TUNE]

HEY, TOMMY,
DID YOU HEAR THAT?

I BET I CAN LEARN
MYSELF TO PLAY THIS ZITHER REAL GOOD...

IF I HAD MORE TIME.

[BUZZ]

YES, SIR?

TELL THEM
TO MOVE KAGEL.

YES, SIR.

[PLAYING HARMONICA]

HERE' S A LETTER
FOR YOU, GORDAN. THANKS.

WELL, KAGEL,
THEY' LL BE HERE ANY MINUTE NOW FOR YOU.

OH, YEAH. YEAH.

Tommy: HEY, CHUMPS,
LISTEN TO THIS.

"DEAR MR. GORDAN,
UNLESS YOU APPEAR IMMEDIATELY AT THE INTERNAL REVENUE OFFICE

"TO ADJUST YOUR
INCOME TAX FOR 1938,

WE SHALL BE FORCED
TO ORDER YOUR ARREST."

[LAUGHS]

THAT' S A HOT ONE.

WHAT' S THE MATTER?

12 MORE HOURS
TO GO, MIKE.

THE DANCE HALL FOR YOU.

OH, YEAH. ALL RIGHT.

IS IT ALL RIGHT IF I
TAKE MY TROMBONE ALONG?

SURE.
THANKS.

WELL, SO LONG, FELLAS.

LOOKS LIKE THEY' RE
CATCHING UP TO ME. GOOD-BYE, TOMMY.

SO LONG, MIKE.

GIVE MY REGARDS
TO THE REST OF THE GANG, AND DON' T CATCH COLD.

THANKS.

GOOD-BYE, MIKE.
I WISH YOU THE VERY BEST KIND OF LUCK.

BE SEEING YOU, TONY.
SO LONG, 8 BALL.

HERE' S THAT BUTT
I PROMISED YOU.

THANK YOU.
DON' T LET ' EM GET YOU DOWN, BIG BOY.

DON' T WORRY ABOUT THAT.

[PLAYS HARMONICA]

DID YOU HEAR THAT?

HEY, FELLAS, DID YOU
HEAR THAT TUNE?

THAT' S THE FIRST TIME
I EVER DONE IT WITHOUT A SOUR NOTE IN IT.

GEE, BET IF I HAD A COUPLE
OF WEEKS MORE, I COULD PLAY ROSES OF PICARDY PERFECT.

YEAH, IF I JUST
HAD A LITTLE MORE TIME.

SAY, FELLAS, I CAN' T
GO IN THERE NOW.

PLEASE, PLEASE
DON' T TAKE ME IN.

I' LL GO IN A COUPLE
OF WEEKS. JUST GIVE ME A COUPLE OF WEEKS MORE.

TAKE IT EASY.
OH, NO, LET ME GO, I TELL YOU!

I GOTTA PRACTICE!
I' M NOT GONNA DIE! I WANT TO LIVE!

I' M NOT GONNA DIE!
I' M GONNA LIVE!

I' M GONNA KEEP ON
LIVING!

[YELLING]

I WANT TO LIVE!

[DOOR SLAMS]

HA HA! YEAH, I' M
AFRAID THAT' S IT.

YOU CERTAINLY PLAY
A SWELL GAME, FATHER.

Warden: YOU' RE IN GOOD
SHAPE, GORDAN.

I WAS NEVER IN BETTER
SHAPE IN MY LIFE.

I WISH YOU WOULD LET ME
DO SOMETHING FOR YOUR SOUL, TOO, TOM.

AH, NO, NOT A CHANCE.
I DON' T GO IN FOR THAT PEARLY GATE STUFF.

IT' S ALL RIGHT FOR
SOME PEOPLE, BUT I DON' T WANT ANY.

MAYBE IT' LL COME
TO YOU LATER ON.

IF IT DOES, I' LL TELL YOU
WHAT I' LL DO. YOU CAN HAVE ALL MY BUSINESS.

THANKS FOR THE GAME, FATHER.
LET' S TRY AND GET ANOTHER ONE IN BEFORE I GO, HUH?

I, UH, AIN' T GOT
SO LONG, YOU KNOW.

ALL RIGHT. I WILL.
GOOD-BYE.

SO LONG.
MUCH OBLIGED TO YOU.

YOU GUYS
GET TIRED OF LOCKING AND UNLOCKING DOORS?

SURE.

I WONDER--IF THEY TAKE HALF
OF THEM OUT, YOU COULD CUT DOWN ON YOUR WORKING HOURS.

SO THIS IS WHAT THEY CALL
THE DANCE HALL, HUH?

YEAH.

NICE PLACE.
I DON' T KNOW WHY YOU KEPT ME AWAY FROM HERE SO LONG.

AS A MATTER OF FACT,
I WOULDN' T MIND STAYING HERE FOR A WHILE.

SAY, IS THIS
THE PLACE I GO OUT?

THAT' S RIGHT, GORDAN.

HOW MUCH LONGER
HAVE I GOT?

TILL 11:00 TONIGHT.

OH, THAT GIVES ME
PLENTY OF TIME.

"ALMIGHTY GOD, WHO HAS GIVEN
US GRACE AT THIS TIME,

"WITH ONE ACCORD WE MAKE OUR
COMMON SUPPLICATION UNTO THEE;

"DOST PROMISE THAT WHEN
TWO OR THREE ARE GATHERED TOGETHER IN THY NAME,

"THOU WILT GRANT
THEIR REQUESTS.

FULFILL NOW, O LORD..."

[DOOR OPENING]

HEY, GUARD,
WHAT TIME IS IT?

12 MINUTES TO 11:00.

THANKS.

[DOOR OPENING]

TOMMY, TOMMY.

THEY WOULDN' T
BELIEVE ME, TOMMY.

I SWORE A HUNDRED
TIMES I DID IT. YOU KNOW THAT, DON' T YOU?

I KNOW, HONEY.
I KNOW YOU DID EVERYTHING YOU COULD.

TOMMY, YOU KNOW
I' M TELLING THE TRUTH.

WARDEN, I KILLED HIM.
I--I KILLED HIM. WHY CAN' T THEY BELIEVE ME?

KAY, THAT' S NO USE NOW.

THEY KNEW I WAS THERE,
AND THEY KNEW I' D KILL HIM.

BUT YOU DIDN' T.
I LIED. HALF OF IT WAS A LIE.

TOMMY WAS THERE WHEN
CROWLEY CAME IN,

JUST LIKE THE COPPER
TESTIFIED.

THEY WERE FIGHTING,
AND CROWLEY WAS KILLING HIM.

I HAD THE GUN,
AND I SHOT HIM.

TOMMY TOOK THE GUN AWAY
FROM ME AND BEAT IT DOWN THE FIRE ESCAPE.

THAT' S THE TRUTH!
YOU' VE GOT TO BELIEVE ME!

TOMMY, TOMMY,
WHY DON' T YOU TELL HIM

THAT' S THE TRUTH
BEFORE IT' S TOO LATE?

KAY, HONEY, KAY,
BABY, TAKE IT EASY.

LOOK, KAY, THAT' S
NO WAY TO ACT.

WARDEN, YOU KNOW
THAT AIN' T THE TRUTH.

SHE' S JUST TRYING
TO CLEAR ME. THAT' S ALL.

YEAH, I TOLD YOU SHE
WAS A CHAMPION.

YES.

YEAH, AND THAT' S THAT,
SEE, AND THERE' S NOTHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT.

NOW, YOU LISTEN TO ME.

YOU SAY YOU DID IT.
ALL RIGHT.

SUPPOSE THEY BELIEVE
YOU. THEN WHAT?

THEY' LL SEND YOU UP
THE RIVER FOR LIFE.

AND WHAT HAPPENS TO ME?

I' LL STILL HAVE TO DO MY
STRETCH FROM 5 TO 30.

DON' T YOU SEE, HONEY?
WE COULD NEVER BE TOGETHER, ANYWAY.

KAY, THIS IS A CHANCE
FOR ME TO DO SOMETHING DECENT IN MY LIFE.

YOU CAN' T TAKE
THAT AWAY FROM ME.

I LOVE YOU, KID.

OH, TOMMY, I CAN' T LET
THEM HURT YOU--

THAT' S ALL THERE
IS TO IT.

WILL YOU DO ONE THING
FOR ME, TOMMY?

YOU KNOW I WILL, HONEY.

WILL YOU--WILL YOU
MARRY ME BEFORE--

MARRY YOU?!

KAY, HONEY, WHY DO YOU
WANT TO WISH THAT ON YOURSELF, BABY?

BEING MARRIED TO A GUY
THAT WENT TO THE CHAIR WOULD MARK YOU FOR LIFE.

I DON' T CARE.

YOU WERE ALL RIGHT
UNTIL YOU MET ME.

I GOT YOU INTO
ALL THIS TROUBLE. FORGET ME NOW.

GO OUT AND GRAB YOURSELF
A SQUARE GUY, A GUY WHO WORKS FOR A LIVING,

GIVE YOU SOME HAPPINESS,
A HOME, AND KIDS, AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF.

NO. I DON' T WANT
ANYONE BUT YOU.

I BELONG TO THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, SEE, AND IN A FEW MINUTES,

THE STATE OF NEW YORK
IS GONNA TAKE ME OUT AND BURN ME, UNDERSTAND?

OH, TOMMY,
DON' T SAY THAT!

I DONE ENOUGH TO YOU
WHILE I WAS ALIVE.

THERE' S NO USE YOUR
CARRYING ME WITH YOU

TO THE OTHER SIDE
OF THE GRAVE.

OH, TOMMY!
KAY.

TOMMY!
[SOBBING]

KAY. KAY.

KAY, HONEY,

YOU GOTTA GO NOW.

LET' S JUST REMEMBER
THE SWELL TIMES WE HAD TOGETHER, AND--

AND REMEMBER, KID,
I LOVED YOU MORE THAN--

I KNOW, TOMMY.
MORE THAN LIFE.

[SOBBING]

TIME IS UP.

"FATHER OF MERCY
AND GOD OF ALL COMFORT,

"WHO BELIEVETH
AND TRUSTETH IN THEE,

ACCORDING TO THE MULTITUDE
OF THY TENDER MERCIES--"

THAT' S ENOUGH, FATHER.
I DON' T NEED ANY MORE.

JUST WALK ALONG
WITH ME, WILL YOU?

ALL RIGHT, TOMMY.

IS THERE ANYTHING
I CAN DO FOR YOU?

YEAH. YOU CAN GIVE
ME A LIGHT.

[DOOR OPENS]

READY?

YES.
