:05:00
...we have a beautiful young woman
and her lover...

:05:04
...lying dead in each other's arms.
:05:07
They had sinned.
:05:11
But was their crime so great...
:05:13
...as to merit a death sentence?
:05:16
While you think about that...
:05:20
...think about this:
:05:22
A revolver holds six bullets, not eight.
:05:26
I submit that this was not
a hot-blooded crime of passion.

:05:30
That at least could be understood,
if not condoned.

:05:33
No.
:05:34
This was revenge...
:05:36
...of a much more brutal,
cold-blooded nature. Consider this:

:05:40
Four bullets per victim.
:05:43
Not six shots fired, but eight.
:05:46
That means that he fired
the gun empty...

:05:49
...and then stopped to reload...
:05:52
...so that he could shoot
each of them again.

:05:55
An extra bullet per lover...
:05:59
...right in the head.
:06:04
You strike me as a particularly icy
and remorseless man, Mr.Dufresne.

:06:09
It chills my blood just to look at you.
:06:13
By the power vested in me
by the state of Maine...

:06:16
...I hereby order you to serve
two life sentences back-to-back...

:06:21
...one for each of your victims.
So be it!

:06:48
Sit.
:06:54
We see you've served
20 years of a life sentence?

:06:58
- Yes, sir.
- You feel you've been rehabilitated?
