Knowledge of the outside world
is what we tell you.

:14:08
From this day on,
:14:11
your world will be everything
that happens in this building.

:14:16
You will shave once a day.
:14:19
You will shower twice a week.
:14:21
You will cut your hair once a month.
:14:25
Now, your privileges.
:14:28
You can talk. You can work.
Other institutions hand out work,

:14:31
but here it's a privilege
that you earn.

:14:34
l promise you it's
a privilege that you'll want.

:14:38
Visitors -
you're allowed two a month.

:14:40
They cannot be former inmates
of this or any other federal prison.

:14:45
All names that you submit will
be carefully checked by the FBl.

:14:49
What names do you have in mind?
:14:54
l can't think of any offhand.
:14:58
Family members?
:15:01
None. No family.
:15:05
Alcatraz is
a maximum security prison

:15:10
with very few privileges.
:15:13
We don't make good citizens,
:15:15
but we make good prisoners.
:15:18
Burglary, armed robbery,
:15:22
grand larceny...
:15:25
You've escaped from
quite a few prisons, haven't you?

:15:30
That's why you're here.
:15:32
Alcatraz was built to keep
all the rotten eggs in one basket.

:15:37
l was specially chosen
:15:38
to ensure that the stink
from the basket does not escape.

:15:42
Since l've been warden
some have tried to escape.

:15:46
Most have been recaptured.
Those who haven't have been killed

:15:50
or drowned in the bay.
:15:53
No one has ever escaped
from Alcatraz.
