- [M. NEWSCASTER] After a
relatively quick court hearing

Daniel Amos is moving
to his final location,

having appealed and lost
three previous attempts

to change his sentence.

This comes as no surprise
to those who have

been following this case
over the last 16 months.

- [F. NEWSCASTER] As you will
recall, Amos was responsible

for the deaths of 11 people.

The states highest body
count in nearly 42 years.

When asked for clarification
on his next move,

Amos' attorney declined to comm.

- [M. NEWSCASTER] He
is scheduled to receive

the lethal injection on
the 27th of this month.

Live with breaking news coverag.

- [PRISONER 1] You're dead anyw!

- [PRISONER 2] There he is!

- [PRISONER 3] Smoke any granni?

[indistinct chatter]

- [PRISONER 4] I'll cut you goo!

- [PRISONER 7] Hey can I borrowe

I'll keep you company.

[loud buzzing]

[loud thud]

[solemn music]

[loud thud]

[ominous music]

- Okay back up.

Now breakfast is at seven a.m. t

get too excited because
it's really the last meal

that's the best.

Okay.

So if you need anything else,

room service, you know,

you just let us know.

[ominous music]

[loud buzzing]

- Think he's a suicide risk?

- One can only hope.

[loud thunder]

- State of the art.

[loud rainfall]

This is it huh?

I guess it's better than
being in population.

I was expecting to be alone.

That's usually what solitary me.

Your sentence end with
your heart stopping too?

I'm sorry.

If I had it my way,

I'd have 'em do it tonight, I s.

Hey I'm Daniel.

Amos.

Maybe you've heard of me.

If you've been in here long eno,

maybe you haven't.

Hey, can you hear me man?

Hey pal.

Hey!

Hello?!

You gotta be kidding me.

This is solitary, you done put
me in jail with a deaf man?

For my last week and it's a mute

I can't even talk to?!

- [Bald Guard] Great, another t.

- Turn it down.

- It's not cool at all fellas.

Hey yo, Buddha!

Hey man that yoga business ain't
gonna help you no more man.

Come on that's a bigger waste
of time for guys like us

than doing push ups!

Come on, in the end what's
it really matter right?

Man you gonna make me crazier tf

you wasn't here at all.

Hey man I'm talking to you!

[short buzzing] -
[GUARD V.O.] Lights out!

[loud slam]

[slow paced music]

Hey brother.

You scared?

I am.

[loud crackling thunder]

Still at it huh?

Let me guess, you don't sleep,

you don't talk, you're just the.

[ominous music]

DANIEL V.O. - So this
is how it's gonna be huh?

Sitting here, counting down the,

the minutes, the seconds.

It's torture.

The heartbeat thumping in my eas

are the only way I can keep
time in a place like this.

60 beats a minute.

As I get closer to the day it'le

like speeding up time, 80 beats.

100, 200, 'til eventually
[imitates cutting].

That's it, time runs out.

Hey buddy you know what time it?

Not that it matters but,

it matters.

Can you at least look at me?

You can do that much friend.

Please?

Come on please man.

Don't do this, just talk to me.

Hey.
[slow paced music]

Come on I don't ask for much.

Just, just talk to me please.

I need you.

- Both your names are Biblical.

Did you know that?

I'm guessing a felon like you d.

The name Daniel translates
to God is my judge.

Amos means bearer of burden.

It's a little ironic don't you ?

A man sentenced to prison and d.

Almost like it was your destiny.

- Oh I get it.

This meditation helps you

forget about what's gonna happe?

- What can I say?

The only one who could ever rea,

was the son of a preacher man.

[solemn music]

- Nice tats.

Must have gone through
something pretty profound

to take on ink like that.

- I got these the first
time I was put away.

- What are you?

You some kind of Bible thumper

that found his way to Jesus beh?

Pretty cliche don't you think?

But those tattoos last forever.

Just like the mark we
all leave on this world

no matter how stupid or ugly.

- What's your story?

Where's your mark?

You a little young to
spend time in Auschwitz.

- No, that's an old
girlfriend's phone number.

- Let the one with understanding

calculate the number of the beat

for that is the number of a man!

And his number is ... [laughinge

440-944-1...

I can't read the rest if you co.

- You funny man.

You know you quote the Bible
like a kid I used to know.

Except he didn't know
nothing about the Bible.

But he could tell you every epie

of Star Trek word for word.

- Well if you expecting to
get beamed up out of here

and get yourself off the hook,

I got some bad news for you sun.

- Yeah I know rap.

What's your name.

- People in here just call me F.

- You new too.

I guess this is the last
stop for the lot of us.

Halfway house to hell huh?

Well, it's gonna be over soon.

At least we don't have to spends

sitting like some low lives hav.

- Man there are 18 states that t

have the death penalty.

I could of told you this was a
dumb place to commit a crime.

- Yeah thanks your eminence.

Where was you when I was
about to down 11 people?

- The same place as I am now.

- Right.

[loud buzzing]

Now what?

- You slept through breakfast.

Not a lot of sleeping
happening back here now.

[loud whistling]

- Well, well, well, Sleeping Be.

Finally awake.

You know when I see a
perp sleep as soundly

as I just watched you sleep,

I just know he's guilty.

You know why?

I think this place gives
you a sense of relief.

Now an innocent man, oh I watchp

he tosses and turns all night l.

He fidgets, why?

Because he's wondering
why they're gonna kill him

for something he didn't do.

- Yeah I had my time to come tos

with what happened out there.

- Really?

I would think that that
would give you nightmares.

Somebody's signing in for you n.

- Who?

- [Officer] The only person
allowed to visit you back here.

- What, my attorney?

- Who do you think?

Your eggs are getting cold.

[loud buzzing]

- Hey.

You want seconds?

- Mmm mmm!

I'll pass.

- Oh Fish,

you got a date for when you che?

- No date.

Just an eternity of waiting to e

how this all turns out.

- Yeah, my time in court was nog

short of swift justice.

They got me in here on death ro.

For my protection of course.

[laughter]

Keeping me safe while
they waiting to kill me.

It's like a Three Stooges bid.

Man, a lot of people want me de.

Why they got you in the hole?

- 'Cause they think I'm dangero.

- Are you?

Yeah.

Everyone in the cage is an anim.

[loud buzzing]

- I'll let you know when I need.

- [Amos] I didn't expect
to see you so soon.

You got dibs on my appeal?

- They're still waiting
to see if they accept it.

Listen, in the event that

this doesn't go your way,

there's an issue with
your execution that we,

my firm thinks that
you need to know about.

- What's to know?

I get a shot, I go to
sleep, and I never wake up.

- No, it isn't like putting dow.

You might wanna sit down for th.

Back in January of 2011 the

State Department of Criminal Ju,

they changed the drugs they
used for lethal injections.

They changed it from sodium thil

to pentobarbital.

Now, unfortunately the
pharmaceutical company

that manufactures this pentobar,

their distributors are
telling them they are

gonna deny the drug to any US ps

who carry out the death
penalty using lethal injection.

At the same time, the state,

they've run out of this pentoba.

- Meaning?

- Meaning the injection
formula that you're gonna get

is a combination of
Midazolam and hydromorphone.

- And this matters to me why?

- It matters because the
last guy they put down

with this cocktail,

took him 25 minutes to die.

[ominous music]

The effect on the body of
this combination of drugs,

it's controversial and potentia.

25 minutes can be an eternity.

My firm believes that's the equt

of human experimentation.

- [Amos] This is what
they're gonna use on me?

- 'Til it's reverse by the cour.

- And that's not gonna
happen before my time comes?

- It could take years to repeal.

That's right.

- So you're not here to help me.

You're just here to let me know

what to expect when it happens.

- It's our obligation to let yo.

- Yeah I'd rather you didn't.

- By law, if there's
anything you wanna ask me,

anything you need.

Whether it's help filling out yr

last will and testament or
get you spiritual counsel,

they have to accommodate.

Is there anything you need?

You alright?

- Yeah.

Just peachy.

- I really am sorry about this.

I'll let you know how the appea.

- Hey, wait!

You think if I want to look
up some of this information

I could get internet access bac?

- The internet in here?

No.

Well sometimes they allow
inmates to have some

limited computer access for comg

with their relatives through em,

but going online that is,

you know, surfing the
web, that's prohibited

in just about every prison
both state and federal.

- Just about?

- They don't want inmates
carrying out illegal

activities inside these walls.

- Look, I might be dead by
your next bowling night.

What possible harm could I cause

by looking up some medical info?

- I will ask, I will see what t.

What harm can it do right?

I can't guarantee anything.

Alright?

But in your case maybe
they'll make an exception

because of all this.

- Please.

Try.

- I will.

If I do you know that
you're gonna be monitored?

24/7, you're gonna have
very limited access.

- Yeah, I get it.

I'm only concerned about by fin.

I've accepted my sentence.

That's what it comes down to.

I just need to know how
to make it go smoother.

- I get it.

May God have mercy on you.

[loud buzzing]

- May God have mercy on you.

If God had mercy on you,

wouldn't you be outside
these walls right now?

- I don't believe in
none of that either way.

I'm here 'cause of my own doing.

- Yep, didn't you day right nowe

to find Christ, behind bars.

Or what did you say earlier?

Cliche?

Well you just live a criminal le

right up until the moment you gt

and then you find Jesus to save!

- Man I can't save nothing righ!

The balls in his court now.

For real.

There's not gonna be no parole,

the governor hates me!

Ain't gonna be no last minute p.

Ain't nobody outside these walls

championing for my life!

Except for my court appointed s!

I just gotta know it's gonna en.

- You know that's there
a lot of girls out there

that love 'em some convicts.

You might wanna find one

and see if she'll protest your .

- [Amos] Any weirdo
outside of here looking for

a friend on death row,
needs help themselves.

- This coming from a
guy looking for a friend

on death row.

Mmm.

You know a lot of people
before us took matters

into their own hands to
avoid their sentence.

- What you talking about?

- What do I mean?

I mean there's more than one wat

beamed up off this planet.

- Man I'm not hanging myself!

That's what you mean?

- I'm not saying you should do .

- That's not who I am.

- No, you're afraid
you're gonna go to hell

if you kill yourself.

- Yeah if you believe in hell ya

believe in heaven right?

If you believe in heaven then ya

believe in God right?

I don't believe in anything.

- I believe you.

Come on man, don't look so glum.

You know there's states
that still have hangings?

Firing squads, gas chambers,

they still have the electric ch.

I'd say a shot in the arm
is getting off pretty easy.

- I just wasted my life.

- Man, wasting your life.

That assumes you were here
for some greater purpose.

There's people who believe thate

lucky to even be here.

The fact that you were
born with a heartbeat

is a miracle!

Science teaches us that every lg

thing on this earth is
only here by a highly

unlikely set of
coincidences and accidents.

- I wasn't put on this
planet to die in prison.

- Put on this planet.

That assumes there's some great.

No, the more prevailing thoughts

is one of happenstance.

A series of cosmic anomalies

that created life.

Became man.

- Says the guy who bears the syl

of a man who preached just the .

You know earlier I said you muse

gone through something pretty po

take on ink like that.

You must of gone through
something far worse

to go against it.

- You got me all figured
out don't you friend?

[low rumbling]

[loud buzzing]

- Hey, Superstar!

Front and center.

Your mouthpiece.

[laughter] I mean, he talked m

allowing internet back here.

- Who are you?

- Warden Dallas.

This is my castle you're living.

You'll be allowed one
battery charge a day.

Make it count.

- Thank you.

Why?

- I reviewed your jacket.

I've witnessed far more sinisten

leave my gates when
they've done their time.

The reason they got back into sy

was because it was their ruling.

You won't.

- You know I'm waiting
for an appeal right?

- All these years I've never sen

step away from a death sentence.

Pray.

Miracle.

My figure, a little distraction

might make your final
week a little less taxing.

Now you'll be limited to
the links you can access.

Now we're gonna monitor
every search engine

you go onto through the main
computer in the guard room.

So, Superstar,

keep it clean.

My boys around here don't
need anymore distractions.

Seek.
[faint tapping]

And you shall find.

[loud buzzing]

- Hey.

Superstar!

What could you possibly find ong

'at'll help you cross
over without incident?

- I don't know.

Maybe if I'm on an empty
stomach or something

it'll take quicker.

I don't know, that's why I'm lo.

I just wanna see what the last
guy did and do the opposite.

Wait, what do you mean?

You said crossing over.

If you're a non-believer where d

I be crossing over to?

- It's just an expression.

- You really believe that we'rel

here just by an accident?

- Well what do you think?

If there is a God or in fact a ,

why is there so much bad stuff
happening to good people?

Why would He let His son be exe?

Having all the power in the wor,

except the will to act upon it.

- What were the names of the drt

they used for the lethal inject?

- Don't ask me.

You're the one with the
ability to find the truth.

- I'll bet you 10 bucks

that he types escape from jail t

search engine within
the first two minutes.

- I'll take that bet.

- Yeah?

Alright, get the money ready.

[Alarm sound]

- You wasting your time.

- This connection is
blocking the exact stuff

I'm trying to look up.

- Man, if it takes six minutes e

or six hours, in the end
what's it really matter?

When you exist on this
earth, death does not.

When death exists, you do not.

[Alarm sound]

- Come...!

What's the point if I can't
even use the thing?!

- I can't imagine why they woult

a convicted murderer to have acs

to stuff that kills people.

- What'd you say?

- Oh nothing important.

It's just why worry.

What's it matter.

Name me one thing in
your life that got better

because you worried about it.

- So sure that nothing's
after this life huh?

- [Fish] Do you see evidence
to prove me otherwise?

- Yeah I'm looking at you.

You must of believed in
eternal life at some point.

- That's before I realized

the Jesus Christ myth
was based on Hercules.

- Hercules?

- Or more specifically Dionysus,

Osiris, Attis.

- Who?

- They're all God like
figures of Greek mythology.

They all predate Jesus of Nazar.

They all have a resurrection st,

and they all died excruciating .

- I never heard that before.

- Ah it's just an old story reh,

handed down through antiquity.

Time and time again.

- If everybody knows that

then why is it not common knowl?

- Because most people only
hear what they wanna hear.

I was like you once.

Searching for answers.

But, now thanks I know the trut.

- Truth is you're just a guy onw

whose preacherman father
forced his faith on you.

[ominous music]

A lot of good that did you.

- Hey!

Don't take my word for it,

look it up for yourself Einstei!

I'm sure the Bible and
Greek mythology ain't gonna

be blocked off for some knuckled

who's gonna take the deep six!

It's either that, or going backo

staring at a blank page or a bl!

- Well why should I care either!

- It depends,

you wanna just believe that
that's the end when you die?

Or do you wanna believe
in some fantastical,

this beautiful salvation everla?

And all you have to do is hit ys

and say I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Yeah.

- I don't know.

I thought they didn't let
criminals in heaven anyway?

- Yeah there's always the penit.

- Did you say something?

[slow paced music]

Your theory was wrong.

- [Fish] What theory?

- Greek mythology.

Couldn't have served as the insn

for the resurrection of Jesus.

- And why is that?

Greek God's like Adonis
were way before Jesus' time.

- Yeah, but what if I'm
reading was accurate,

there are only four accounts ths

was raised from the dead.

The earliest being from
the 2nd century AD.

[slight laughter]

Looks like you had it backwards

- Why don't you look up Attis.

- Yeah, I already did.

Says here, the earliest evidenct

isn't found until the 3rd centu.

- Well then Osiris, as a
religion that definitely

predates Christianity.

- Mmm hmm, but there's no
resurrection in that story.

- That's because you're only reg

the written material.

Before writing we had mythic ims

found on ancient reliefs and po.

These stories were all handed dn

by word of mouth.

- Yeah but there's no
evidence of a resurrected God

to have influenced the story ofs

before the 2nd century.

That's a couple hundred years t.

- What you're reading is wrong!

If the story of Christ were tru,

wouldn't everyone recognize it?

- Hey hey, don't shoot the mess.

Don't have no three
headed dog in this fight.

- Why is there so much
found on the internet

and so little of it true?

Every theory a distraction.

It's just like the Shroud of Tu.

Just another old relic
used to sustain a belief.

- You so sure you heard the rigo

that made you lose your way?

Maybe what you believe is wrong.

- It wasn't what I found about ,

it's what happened to me that me

me who I am today.

- What happened?

Where did it all go wrong?

[solemn music]

- I woke up one day

and I saw the world as it truly.

That's what happened.

You see the world these days.

It thrives on one lie

told after another.

- Yeah if truth and honesty wer,

would either of us be here?

[ominous music]

Who cares anyway.

[loud crackling]

[loud sirens]

[loud winds]

[loud sirens]

[loud buzzing]

[Cheering And Basketball sounds]

- It's funny isn't it?

Something as small as a little d

just flap its wings
and fly on out of here.

- Yeah.

What I wouldn't give to have wi.

- You were talking in
your sleep last night.

Didn't sound good either.

- Just reliving my past I guess.

- Sounded like regret to me.

What happened out there man, co.

- I got greedy.

- That happens to all of us man.

- I wasn't a total loser either.

Man I had a job.

I was working a senior care fac.

I was, you know, mopping
floors and changing sheets.

Watching people reach
the end of their days.

It didn't pay much but it was s.

- Jobs usually don't.

- You don't know how
many times I saw folks

file in there only to die and ld

things that they cherished.

They'd have wedding rings and
retirement watches and money.

- You didn't take those
poor peoples money did ya?

- It wasn't like anybody
was gonna miss it!

And the real crime would have bo

just let it sit there right?

- Yeah.

Uh huh.

- Man don't look at me like tha.

It's not like I took the medica.

I could have took that
and sold it but I didn't.

I knew people needed that to li,

so I'm not a maniac.

- Man, they don't put you on dew

for swapping rings and watches.

- They do for taking lives.

I started a fire just to
distract the night guard

so I could get like four or fivs

just to get in and get out.

The fire got out of control.

Before I knew it, the place
went up like a tinder box.

Night shift was completely over.

They couldn't get
everybody out in time so,

so 11 people died.

Three from the smoke
and the rest got burned.

But I got the gold.

Look I'm saying man,
they ain't nobody outside

this wall fighting for me.

- Well that sounds all accident.

They putting you down for that?

[Fire alarm ringing]

- I panicked.

I ran.

I could have gone in
and helped some people.

I could have gone in and saved !

But I didn't.

I'll never get that back.

What do you think that
guard right there would do

if I just started climbing
this fence right now?

- I think he'd take your guilt .

One round at a time!

You're not gonna do it are ya?

- No, that'd be stupid as
what I did to get in here.

No, I think there's
something I still need to do

before this is all over.

- Oh yeah, like what?

- I don't know man.
[loud buzzing]

I don't know.

- Times up.

- Hey, that Shroud of Turin
thing, I looked it up.

I think that's real.

This thing right?

The supposed burial cloth of Je.

- Yup, just another momento
to give people hope.

They declared that a medieval f.

Said some artist painted that.

- Actually they didn't.

IN the 70's they tested it.

They said there were no signs
of any ink, paint, or dye.

Just an image faded slightly
into the top fibers.

Said that to this day they
don't know how it got there.

- You said no paint?

- No, just blood.

Male human blood.

- There were people carbon
dating this thing in the 1980's.

They said it was no older than !

That would make it a fake!

[laughter]

- Says here it was the outside r

that they carbon tested.

It was a medieval repair
woven into the edge.

Expert says it was that
patchwork that they tested.

- Wait experts, you can't
rely on someones opinion.

This is an artifact that a lot e

hang their religious beliefs on!

Man I'm gonna need some scientis

before I believe that it's olde.

Or that it's real.

[laughter]

- Yeah, check this out.

The Hungarian pray manuscript.

- Wait, a Hungarian what?

- This is a picture of what Jess

actually looked like in the shr.

- So?

- Look at these pictures.

The one on the right is the rea.

And on the left is a drawing.

And the holes match.

Whoever drew this must have
seen the real Shroud of Turin.

- And?

- These marks are holes
found in the real shroud.

This is a picture of the
real Shroud of Turin.

- Man what's your point?

- My point is, the pray
manuscript is from 1191.

That's way older than the carbo.

- Alright, alright, so
the dating was a bit off!

- Check this out.

In the Gospel there were two
clothes linked to his death.

The shroud and the facial cloth

which they wrapped around his fr

they took him off the cross.

- I got it I got it.

- [Amos] They call it
the Sudarium of Oviedo.

Look you can see it's much bloo.

- And what's this have
to do with the shroud?

- Look when you overlay 'em.

It lines up like a fingerprint .

Blood patterns on the
shroud and face match.

Both of these were on the same e

at the same time.

This cloth has been in
Oviedo Spain since 616.

That proves the carbon dating w.

Science got it wrong.

- Man that don't prove a thing.

That's still 600 years after
the man supposedly died.

- Then there's this one last th.

The cloth from Turin Italy

and the one from Oviedo Spain

both contain traces of
pollen in their fibers

that are from a plant exclusive.

And found within a 50
mile radius of Jerusalem.

- That does not make it fact.

That does not associate it
with the crucifixion of Christ!

It could be anyone's shroud!

- People didn't save their shro.

What about the scourge marks

and the blood on the
forehead, hands, and the feet?

The wound on the side.

That's unique to the Passion.

If I had evidence of my
innocence as strong as this,

I wouldn't be in jail right now.

- Well, the jury's still out on.

- You don't find this at all in?

- What?

- That Atheists keep arguing thn

that inspired a religion
of more than two billion

people is phony.

And the more I keep looking int,

the more evidence I find that h.

- You're finding Jesus behind b.

[laughter]

I told you!

- Nah it's not like that but,

it occupies my mind.

Otherwise I just be
sitting here staring at you

waiting to die.

- I'll give you something
to do then Sherlock

since you're so good at looking.

Why don't you tell me why it tog

for somebody to write about Jes!

Earliest estimate say
it's half a century later,

doesn't that strike you
as a little bit odd?

I mean how reliable could that !

[laughter]

- Relax dude.

I'm not here to argue with you.

Maybe you should go do
some yoga and lighten up.

[loud buzzing]

- Okay Superstar.

- What is this?

- Don't get excited.

He's just here to check
your blood pressure

and take your temperature.

Now every inmate that
has a ticket to ride,

that's in his jacket.

- Just wanna prove you're alive.

- Before you need to prove I'm .

- Give me your right arm please.

- You a doctor?

- I do work here for my
elective medical residency.

- You gonna be the one that--

- [Doctor] Shh.

- Hey I'm asking you a question,

you gonna be the one?

- Afraid not.

Lean in please.

[loud beep]

- So who does that honor go to?

- In some states, the guards do,

in others, it's the inmates job.

- You gotta be kidding.

What do ya mean, they
don't have a doctor do it?

- Doctors are subjected to cens,

so some states are trying to trn

either inmates or guards to do .

You're lucky.

You'll have no track marks so id

be easier to find a vein.

- Should I be worried about how
long it's gonna take to die?

- If you need to worry about an,

worry about waking up during th.

- What'd you say?

Warden.

- Seriously?

- Is he telling the
truth, that can happen?

You can wake up, that can happe!

Warden!

What you can wake up?!

Warden!

Hey man I'm talking to you!

Warden, what happens
to my body after I die!

Warden, Warden!

- Man, waking up mid-execution.

Phew, that is a brutal one.

- Stop it.

- Eh your body will
end up in a state owned

graveyard somewhere.

- What?

- Either that or your ashes aree

spread into the weeds out
back unceremoniously--

- Shut up!

I'm not talking to you right no!

- You wanted to know.

Oh you wanted to know.

- [Amos] I didn't wanna hear it!

- No, you only wanted
to hear that everything

was gonna be alright.

- I don't know what I wanna hea.

- I'll tell you what you wanna .

You wanna hear that after you d,

you're gonna get a clean slate.

[Ominous music gets Louder]

Become the spirit you
were meant to be right?

Most people nowadays, the acceps

nothing after this.

Heaven, paradise.

Whatever you wanna call it.

It's being discredited
as a man made invention

to keep people on the
straight and narrow--

- Please.

- [Fish] I mean, if the populatt

scared to death of going to Hele

world would be in prison
right now wouldn't it?

- That's enough, that's enough!

- [Fish] Wouldn't it?

[laughter]

Oh!

[cheering]

- You know you were wrong right?

You were mentioning how late its

that people started
recording the life of Jesus.

- Not this again.

- It wasn't as late as you thin.

These scholars say that these
stories started to show up--

- Not stories, the Gospels.

- Yeah, those.

They said popular belief is thay

were written decades later.

Like 40 to 60 years after by
this guy named Mark for one.

But it seems he was just passinn

what he heard from these other .

Like this guy named Paul.

And Paul started to
preach about the Christ

like 25 years after the cross.

- Only 25 years?

Just a quarter century later.

- And it seems he had
gotten what he learned

from these other guys,
Peter, John, and James.

- John, James, these stories
change from each telling.

Who knows where this came from.

This could be about King
Tut for all we know!

- No Paul preached.

He said, "I give you what I was"

- Meaning?

- Meaning that he got the wordsy

from these other guys!

- Not guys, apostles.

- These guys were the
firsthand account of Jesus.

They knew him!

They saw him rise from the dead.

They say that the guy James,

that's supposed to be Jesus' br.

I didn't even know he had a bro.

- He had brothers and sisters.

- Yeah it's amazing!

I never heard this stuff in det.

They say now they can trace it o

one or two years after the cros.

That's unbelievalble!

That's like 2,000 years.

That's insane!

- Yeah but what they're talkingt

is a paranormal world!

Miracles, death, resurrection.

It reads like an ancient comic !

As a child he was born of a vir.

Come on.

- You believe in Alexander The ?

- Of course, he was a real man.

No one disputes that.

[laughter]

- Man earliest accounts
we have of Alexander

say that he was born of a virgir

and had a Greek God for a fathe.

And we don't hear those storiesl

300 or 450 years after his deat.

So how come it's okay to believe

and not the other?

- I know what you're doing.

I see it, it's all good.

You know that to avoid your fate

to believe in a miracle.

You know that's the only way

out of this situation you're in.

Belief in miracle.

Right?

- Other people believe in
miracles, how come I can't?

- 'Cause!

You're street smart!

Deep down, you know
it's all made up right?

Walking on water, raising the d,

making a blind man see!

Water into wine?!

It's Harry Potter of his day is?

Fewer and fewer people buy
into this stuff anymore.

The world's gotten too smart.

- Or you mean too cynical.

- Tomato tomato.

You just believe in the truth.

Believing in much fairy tales

won't do you any good,
I can promise you that.

[loud buzzing]

- [Lawyer] Hanging in there?

- No I'm not hanging in here.

- You know what I meant.

I see you got your laptop.

- Yeah, thanks for that.

- Helping you find some kind of?

- It's definitely opening my mi.

You here to give me some good n?

- We'll see, I'm gonna sit
down with the judge tomorrow,

hopefully we can try to
make him see it our way.

Get you another appeal.

- That's something, right?

- Yeah.

- What?

- There's a writer who wants
to do an interview with you.

Do a story on somebody who might
be facing their final days.

- And they need my permission be

they let them back here?

- That's part of it.

But they also would like to inte

to get a legal perspective.

Now I didn't say yes until you -

- In other words you wanna
get your face in the paper.

- It doesn't hurt to expand the.

A little publicity never hurt r?

- Thoughtful of you to ask firs.

- Who knows, maybe one day theye

a book about this thing.

- Yeah I'm sure I'll pick up a .

- You gonna be gone.

He's gonna be collecting
royalties off your death.

- Yeah, the hits keep coming.

- Alright look, I gotta go.

Next time I show up here,

hopefully I'll have a good word
about that final appeal huh?

- Typical parasite.
[loud buzzing]

- It's ironic isn't it?

You gotta die to become
the subject of a book.

- Let me ask you something.

Before the fire, were
you ever a good thief?

- Man I couldn't steal my mama'.

Ain't nothing for free.

- Some things are.

If you know where to look.

- That's the trick isn't it?

Knowing where to look.

[slow paced music]

- Oh.

- That's too bad.

- What was that?

- Nothing, nothing.

[solemn music]

- Hey you awake?

I need to ask you something.

- [Fish] It better be good.

- You said there's no life
after this world right?

- [Fish] So say the masses.

- But you can't prove that can ?

You know that there's
people that have been there?

They've seen it.

- You found near death experien.

- A lot of what they describe,

matches what I'm reading
here in the Bible.

- Oh they can't prove it either.

That's the trick of it all.

- Then why did the study of 100f

near death cases, half
of them saw themselves

from outside their body.

Just before reaching the edge o.

Only to be brought back
before crossing over.

It doesn't make sense.

- People on drugs have
had the same experience.

I'm sure they thought it was ma.

- What about all the proven case

people have died on the table

only to come back to describe ts

that they couldn't possibly kno?

Or the people blind since birth,

that upon dying had visions of s

they couldn't possibly have see?

- Books my friend, books.

Just like the money your attorns

gonna make off your wonderful s.

People will write anything for k

if they think some
suckers willing to buy it.

- I might believe that but,

in order to get in that book clb

you gotta die and come back.

That's a pretty exclusive club.

- You ever think that all this

comes from a distressed mind?

- Why do you keep doing that?!

Every time I raise the possibile

you gotta drag me back down aga!

Look, just because you lost youh

doesn't mean you're right!

What if there's something to al?

- And what if there's not?

Times have changed.

People are losing their religio.

Spirituality.

- What's the difference?

- If you believed that God
holds you to a higher standard,

as articulated in the Bible,

well then you're religious.

But if you believe those
standards hinder your life,

then you might be spiritual.

So you might pray to a cow as od

to an invisible man in the sky.

And that difference is why peope

turn away from God all the time.

- I just thought that
if no one had an answer

one way or another by now then t

it'd never be solved.

So why question it?

- That makes you agnostic.

You just don't know what to bel.

- Yeah but now, looking
through the eyes of a dead man,

I don't know what to believe.

- Make up your mind!

You know the difference
between fact and fiction.

I don't wanna see someone on tht

sway your opinion unless you
can prove it to yourself!

- Why do you even care?

- Because I've been there.

I know what it's like
to believe in something,

to have hope.

To believe in the people that ae

around you are true and just.

Only to have them disappoint

and let you down time and time .

[solemn music]

This prison's full of it.

[loud buzzing]

- You okay an interview?

- Yeah.

- You want me to stay?

- No it's okay, thank you.

- Now don't get too close.

And if you need anything,
I'm right outside the door.

[loud buzzing]

- They didn't say you'd be a wo.

- Is that a problem for you?

- No.

I just hadn't seen one in a whi.

What would you like to know?

- You look healthier
than I thought you would.

Do they take good care of you i?

- No better than the state pen.

- Is that good or bad or...

- It isn't good, it isn't bad.

- [Reporter] How's the food?

- About what you'd expect.

But you didn't come
here to ask me questions

that you already know the answe.

So go ahead.

- Alright.

How do you feel knowing you're ?

- Well there's a possibility th.

I'm still waiting on an appeal.

- So you don't think you
deserve your sentence?

- I didn't cause suffering
for suffering's sake.

It just happened that way.

- It just happened.

You should try telling that to e

who burned in their beds
that it just happened.

- Look at my trial,

I said I was sorry, I meant it.

- And that makes it better?

- What kind of interview is thi?

- Are you, are you evil

or are you sick in the head?

[ominous music]

- Evil is a choice.

Sickness is the absence of
choice and I ain't neither.

- Do you have any idea the damae

done to those families?

- You got a question about
life behind bars, then ask it.

- Okay.

How do you feel knowing people g

to enjoy watching you die?

- I guess it'll bring some
closure to some people.

- Closure.

And that's supposed to make it .

- That's not what I said.

But, if I die then maybe that'lp

ease the pain that I caused.

- You know, 2014 was the worst r

for capital punishment
by lethal injection.

- What?

- Yeah, prisoners they died ter.

- Yeah.

I heard about a guy who took 25s

for him to die.

- 25 minutes?

In Arizona, there was one guy

who lasted from 1:57 until 4:39.

He was gasping for air
like a fish out of water

over 600 times before his heart.

And this one guy in Oklahoma,

he said that his whole body was,

he was screaming.

- Yeah body burning, yeah I kno.

- And there was another guy

who they took his IV catheter

and they shoved it so hard it wt

right through his vein
and right into his groin.

And they injected him into his e

instead of his blood stream.

The guards tried to stop
it but they couldn't

and he was just writhing
in agony for hours.

- Why you telling me this for?!

- Because, my grandmother
was one of your victims.

And I just want you to burn in .

- Get out of here!

Get out!

Guards!

Get her out of here!

- Get her out of there.

Now, come on.

- Guards!
- Burn in hell.

- [Amos] Guards come and get he!

- Die a humane death
- Guards!

- but it won't be.
- This ain't no interview!

- [Reporter] Burn in hell.

- She's not a reporter!

- It's not gonna be humane!

- [Amos] She's crazy!

- It's not gonna be--

- Get out of her!

- It's not, you're going to
be in so much pain you animal!

[loud buzzing]

I want you to know that!

[solemn music]

- Like I told you,

people falter and disappoint,

time and time again.

[loud buzzing]

- Open six I got a stringer!

- Oh no no no, not on my watch!

You idiot!

Gotcha gotcha.

[loud coughing]

Why would you go and
do something like this?

- You know why.

- Every one of you guys in here

put a rope around your neck,

you're gonna put us out of a jo.

- It's all about you isn't it?

- Just because you messed up yoe

doesn't mean I have to
let you mess up mine.

I ever catch you trying
something like that again

I'm gonna bust you--

- That's enough!

That's enough.

Come on.

What are you doing?

Daniel, you know this would
never be the right way out.

You know how I know that?

These last few days I've
been looking at the same

thing you've been looking at.

I've been learning everything
you've been learning.

Now you know you can't focus on.

Not this.

You gotta think about what's ne.

It's better.

Here.

Get some sleep.

Close six.

[solemn music]

[loud buzzing]

- Are you that anxious to
have a near death experience?

- I wasn't aiming for near.

- Well, I guess that's
one way to look for God.

- [Amos] I thought you
said there wasn't one?

- Hence look, not find.

- He's back at it.

[slow paced music]

- Hey!

Why are you so delighted
sitting over there?

- I'm just looking at stuff.

- What stuff?

- Stuff about science and
scientists don't want you to kn.

- Here we go again.

- You know science is defined as

the systematic knowledge of
the physical material world

gained through observation
and experimentation.

Observation, to observe.

- [Fish] Observation of what?

- I was reading about natural s.

- Darwin!

The man with all the answers.

- It's interesting.

You know they call it
the theory of evolution.

And not the fact of evolution.

- Oh don't tell me you
don't believe in evolution

because you read somebody's opit

the world started 10,000 years !

- No, not at all.

But just the same reason that yu

don't believe in evolution becae

catchy sitcom about the Bing Bag

explains it at the
beginning of every show.

I just find it odd that in schol

it's taught as absolute fact.

But more and more scientists toe

having problems with it.

Darwin himself had problems
with his own conclusion.

- What?

Every thinking man

accepts that life started

from a single cell.

And then branched out like a tre

to become all modern born
animals that we see today.

- Not every.

- Don't tell me you don't
believe in evolution!

- Do certain fish lose their eyt

when adapting to a cave so
dark they don't need to see?

Of course.

But for countless species to wie

with no common ancestor?

That's a completely
different thing altogether.

You know about this?

The Cambrian explosion?

- [Fish] Please.

Enlighten me.

- Okay according to Darwin,

all the different lifeforms camy

of evolving from one common anc.

- That's what we just discussed.

- The issue Darwin found
with the Cambrian explosion

is that all these major
differences in lifeforms

appeared overnight in evolution.

There's no fossil record to shot

they descended from an immediat.

- So a laptop makes you an inte?

- Look, for Darwin's theory to ,

it would require new forms to ee

in tiny gradual changes
over long periods of time.

Yeah, listen to this.

If it could be demonstrated

that any complex organism existd

which could not possibly have bd

by numerous, successive,
slight modifications,

my theory would absolutely brea.

Those are Darwin's own words ma.

A century after he wrote this,

there's still no
observable proof that true

evolution ever occurred.

- If you start talking
about intelligent design

I am out of here!

- Darwin knew about the gap.

He was hoping that
fossils would eventually

show up to prove him right.

- And?!

- They never did.

- Well maybe those other
lifeforms are too soft

or small to fossilize!

- Then why do we have
fossils of pre-Cambrian

sponge embryos?

Man they're soft, they're small.

- I don't know!

I'm not a geologist!

- Neither am I!

But it's interesting that sciend

a gap in evolution but you won't

hear about that in science clas.

- Yeah well they don't have to g

for the missing link, he's
standing right in front of me.

- I'm not standing here because
of some undirected process.

I'm beginning to think that
we're here for a reason.

- Yeah, we're in jail

because of natural selection.

The lethal injection
prevents our descendants

from doing the same.

You see how that works?

- But the two dominant
lifeforms on this planet,

plants and animals.

Plants are here to offer food an

for intelligent man.

But intelligent man offers
no benefit to those plants.

It's like it was designed that .

- You are reaching.

- Explain this to me.

How do you get life from non-li?

How can you just get
something out of nothing?

- I don't know!

Maybe lightening struck a pile f

ooze and some gas and
whammo we have life?!

- Man with all we know about bi,

chemistry, physics, we
can't replicate that

or prove that.

We can't even account for the dy

between you and the Ebola virus.

Between a cactus and a butterfl.

So how did all that come

from one spark of life Dr. Fran?

Why do we have inner species br?

Alligators and crocodiles can't.

Humans and apes can't.

- Lions and tigers can,
horses and donkeys too.

- They share a common genus.

But when they do, their
offspring is sterile.

Tell me that's not intentional.

If it's all just evolution,

what started it?

If it's just life trying to betf

through necessity then why do we

free thought or the ability to ?

What survival instinct
drove us to appreciate

da Vinci or Mozart?

What necessity forced us to impe

and evolve and ask the question,

why are we here?

There is no reason.

Unless someone put us here to a.

[slow paced music]

If our DNA is encoded like a cor

then who is the programmer?

[loud buzzing]

- I'm sorry.

[solemn music]

Is there anything I can do?

I'm sorry.

- Wait!

Will you be there?

- [Lawyer] Would you like me to?

- Yeah.

You did your best on my behalf ,

it'd be nice to have at
least one in my corner.

- There will be.

[loud buzzing]

- It was a long shot anyway.

- Now what?

- Now I pray.

- I thought we talked about thi.

I thought you accepted that
there is no one to pray to?

- That's what you decided.

I don't believe that to be true.

You said something about us beie

by a series of cosmic anomalies

that created life and became ma.

- Yeah, have you ever seen God?

- No.

But you can't see the air eithe.

But when the wind blows on a grd

you know it's there.

So maybe the mysteries of
the universe are like that?

Just God's fingerprints
hidden in plain sight.

- That's your proof?

That's what you're going on?

- What's your proof that he's n?

'Cause some people find religion

in a textbook instead of the Bi?

- Well, are you saying that
scientists aren't smart?

'Cause there's some wise peopleV

who know about the cosmos,

who might challenge you on that.

- There's a difference between
being smart and being wise.

A smart man knows that
a tomato is a fruit.

But a wise man knows not to puta

tomato into a fruit salad.

- Ahhh, I know that every atom y

they're made up of stars.

Everybody knows that.

So that's the end of the story.

- I didn't say they didn't.

But who created the stars?

Look if you're gonna put everytg

into the hands of celebrity
atheist scientists,

then let me ask you something.

There's 100 billion galaxies oue

Countless planets and stars.

Next time you're in the yard,

I want you to pick up a handful.

Ask yourself, where did
all that matter come from?

Think of all the gases, all the,

imagine the water on our own pl,

the power of our sun.

Look in one second it produces y

that keeps us alive than
mankind has ever produced.

And in our own Milky Way there's

that are 1500 times the radius .

So where did all that come from!

- The Big Bang!

13 billion years ago.

- Okay but I'll say it again.

Something doesn't come from not.

What caused the Big Bang?

If the universe didn't exist ban

it had no reason to exist at al.

- So?!

- So for it to exist something o

cause it to exist.

What caused it to exist?

If there's a reason for the Bigg

then who was the Big Banger?

- I don't know, maybe the univee

created itself.

- That's not observable science.

Look we know that the
universe is expanding.

That the galaxies are moving.

That the earth is spinning arou.

That the moon is traveling
around the earth.

Nothing moves without a reason.

So what was the immovable object

that started it all in motion?

- You've been reading
Thomas Aquinas haven't you?!

- If something is caused it hade

caused by something else.

That's your science!

- You're causing me to have a h.

- It's funny huh?

When it comes to the important ,

it takes as much faith
to believe in a Darwin

or a Big Bang as it does
to believe in a creator.

- Well, well, well.

Ain't you precious.

You found God in jail after all?

- It seems to be the most
obvious observable answer

to all these questions.

But you won't hear a peep
about that in public school.

But you might in prison.

- So that's it?

Made your decision.

- Yeah!

I found enough holes, poked ints

of non-believers that
I have no other choice

but to believe in God.

- Well.

Clock just about done.

Time on this earth's not eterna.

I wish you'd see it.

- You're right.

But I now believe that in the ee

when every bit of energy in thec

universe has died out, as
every living thing must do.

When the last star fades and
the light goes out forever,

it'll be then that the echoing s

of every living thing that's evn

will ask the question,

what was it all for?

Why did something so great exist

only to fade like a dying thoug?

Then what will the answer be?

For the man whose soul
belief is in science,

there will be no answer.

But for the man of faith,

he already knows.

[loud buzzing]

- Here's the meal you ordered.

- My last supper.

- You know most people
request something special

for their last meal.

- I'm no different.

- [keeping voice low] Get your .

I thought this would go
good with your last supper.

Mums the word.

- Thank you.

[loud buzzing]

Would you like some?

[slow paced music]

- Today is the day.

- [Amos] Today is the day of al.

- You scared?

- [Amos] Not as much as before.

I wanna thank you.

- For what?

- [Amos] You know why.

[loud buzzing]

- Open six!

How was that meal son?

You gotta put these on.

[solemn music]

You okay?

- Yeah I'm alright.

- We have a spiritual adviser o.

Do you want to talk to him?

- No.

I think I found what I was look.

Thanks to Fish.

- [Officer] It's time.

[ominous music]

- It is almost time.

- What?

This is your face?

- Only the face you needed to s.

- Why didn't you just tell me?

Why challenge me on everything?

- Because no one could force yo.

You needed to find this on your.

- Why me?

- Why not you?

- The one question you asked,

I never got an answer.

- Why would God allow
his son to be executed

having all the power in the word

except the will to act upon it.

- [Amos] Yes.

- You know the answer.

- He did it for love.

To pardon the sins of all mankid

so that we may be forgiven
and live again with the Lord.

- Daniel, it's time.
[loud echoing thud]

[ominous music]

[indistinct Prisoner chatter]

- [Prisoner Chatter] You got th!

- [Prisoner Chatter] Keep your !

- [Prisoner Chatter] Keep your .

[faint clanking]

- Are there any last
words you wish to say son?

- I'm sorry for everything.

And I'm sorry I didn't
see the promise sooner.

Jesus, remember me when
you come into your kingdom.

Are you gonna do it?

- I thought this moment would br

with another new believer.

Thank you Daniel.

[slow paced music]

[inspirational music]

[faint beeping]

[long faint beep]

- Amen, I say unto you.

Today, you will be with me in p.
