so that nothing will stand in the way
of our happiness.

1:08:07
I think it best, darling.
1:08:09
Why, they can't fail to pardon you.
1:08:12
And then, when you come back,
you'll be free. For always.

1:08:18
And we'll be together. Always.
1:08:22
These stories you've been hearing,
gentlemen, are absurd.

1:08:26
Why, our chain gangs are beneficial
to the convicts...

1:08:29
not only physically, but morally.
I can cite you...

1:08:35
Gentlemen, I've decided to go back.
1:08:38
Voluntarily.
1:08:41
On your assurance of a pardon.
1:08:43
And you won't regret your decision.
1:09:07
I presume, Mr. Allen,
your Chicago attorneys informed you...

1:09:11
that I would be in complete charge
of your case down here?

1:09:14
Yes, he did.
1:09:16
Let's get the financial end
straightened out first.

1:09:22
Your capture and return cost the state...
1:09:26
$350. My fee will be $2,500.
1:09:31
$1,000 now,
and $1,500 when you get your release.

1:09:37
This is for the state.
1:09:39
You know, of course...
1:09:41
that you'll have to go to a prison camp
for 90 days.

1:09:49
- There's your check.
- Thanks, Allen.

1:09:52
There's no reason to believe
that after the 90 days...

1:09:56
I won't get my pardon then, is there?
