I've spent 3 1/2 years of my life
in your prison.

1:05:07
I think I've paid for my error.
1:05:14
If it's your decision today
to sentence me to more years...

1:05:34
My lawyer... that's a good one.
He says, "Be cool, Billy."

1:05:40
"Be good. I'll get you a pardon,
an amnesty, an appeal."

1:05:47
This has been going on now
for 3 1/2 years.

1:05:52
I've been playing it cool.
I've been good.

1:05:58
Now I'm damn tired of being good.
You said I had 53 days left.

1:06:06
You hung 53 days in my face,
and then you took them away.

1:06:13
And you!
1:06:16
I wish you could be standing
where I'm standing right now.

1:06:20
Then you would know something
that you don't know.

1:06:24
Mercy!
1:06:27
You would know that a just society
is based on the concept of mercy.

1:06:35
Its sense of fair play and justice.
1:06:40
But I guess that's like asking
a bear to shit in a toilet.

1:06:55
For a nation of pigs,
it sure is funny you don't eat them.
