In 1909, in Alaska, you appointed yourself
judge, jury and executioner

:05:04
and killed one... Charles Dahmer
:05:07
because he allegedly beat up a friend
named Katie Malone... a prostitute.

:05:15
You were transferred here to Leavenworth
because of an inferior record.

:05:19
Now, I propose to give you a fresh start.
:05:21
Such rights as you will enjoy are listed
here in my rules and regulations.

:05:27
There are 86.
I suggest you memorise them.

:05:29
I know 'em. They're the same in all pens.
:05:32
They tell you when to eat,
when to sleep, when to go to the privy.

:05:35
Precisely. And what you'll do
for every minute 24 hours a day.

:05:41
You're going to be here
for nine long years, Stroud.

:05:45
So with or without your cooperation,
I intend to make a man of you,

:05:49
before you check out these gates.
:05:51
You'll conform to our ideas
of how you should behave.

:05:54
You'll learn the lesson now
or five years from now, but you'll learn.

:06:02
For breaking that train window, all your
privileges are suspended for 30 days.

:06:06
That's all, Mr Ransom.
:06:09
Let's go.
:06:18
You're one of the new fish
from McNeil, huh?

:06:22
Yeah.
:06:25
Yeah, well, I'm Tony Qualen.
Who are you?

:06:29
Stroud.
:06:32
You're lucky to be in this cellblock.
:06:37
Boss here's a friend of mine.
:06:41
Picture of your mother?
:06:44
Put it back.
:06:48
Put it back!
