CELLMATE: Mama would throw
the live crawdad...
:05:02
in a pan of boiling water.
:05:04
One day, I decided to make
my own crawdad...
:05:08
and I threw it in a pot
without the water, you see?
:05:12
And it was just like
making popcorn.
:05:16
HI: Yeah,
the joint is a lonely place...
:05:18
after lockup and lights out...
:05:20
when the last of the cons...
:05:21
has been swept away
by the sandman.
:05:25
But I couldn't help thinking...
:05:26
that a brighter future
lay ahead...
:05:30
a future that was only
eight to fourteen months away.
:05:39
MAN: They got a name
for people like you, Hi.
:05:42
That name is called recidivism.
:05:45
SECOND MAN: Repeat offender.
:05:47
MAN:
Not a pretty name, is it, Hi?
:05:49
No, sir.
That's one bonehead name...
:05:51
but that ain't me anymore.
:05:52
MAN: You're not just telling us
what we want to hear?
:05:55
HI: No, sir. No way.
:05:57
SECOND MAN: 'Cause we just want
to hear the truth.
:05:59
HI: Then I guess I am telling
you what you want to hear.
:06:02
MAN: Didn't we just tell you
not to do that?
:06:05
HI: Yes, sir.
:06:06
MAN: OK, then.
:06:09
ED: Turn to the right!
:06:11
HI: I'm walking in here
on my knees, Ed--
:06:13
a free man proposing.
:06:14
Howdy, Kurt.
:06:16
HI: And so it was.
:06:17
DEPUTY:
Don't forget the bouquet, Ed.
:06:20
I do.
:06:21
You bet I do.
:06:23
OK, then.
:06:24
- Yay!
- Whoo!
:06:28
HI: Ed's pa
staked us to a starter home...
:06:31
in suburban Tempe...
:06:32
and I got a job
drilling holes in sheet metal.
:06:35
COWORKER: We were doing
paramedical work...
:06:37
in affiliation
with the state highway system.
:06:39
Not actually practicing,
you understand.
:06:41
Me and Bill
were patrolling down Nine Mile.
:06:44
- Bill Roberts?
- No, not that mother-scratcher.
:06:47
Bill Parker.
:06:49
Anyway,
we're approaching the wreck...
:06:51
and there's
this spherical object...
:06:53
resting in the highway...
:06:55
and it's not a piece of the car.
:06:57
HI: Most ways,
the job was a lot like prison...
