- (buzzer)
- Step back from the door, Sister!
1:03:06
Why? What's happenin'?
1:03:13
- Move it on out, boy.
- Well, Sister... What's this?
1:03:21
He'll be an hour, Sister.
Why don't you get some air?
1:03:24
- Where are they takin' him?
- I can't tell you.
1:03:39
Sister Helen? Chaplain Farley called.
He's at the gate. He'll be right here.
1:03:43
Thank you.
1:03:45
Sergeant Trapp, how long do you think
that big old tree's been there?
1:03:50
Ma'am, ain't no tellin'.
1:03:54
Saw you outside the gates
the other night at Purcell's execution.
1:03:58
Yeah.
1:03:59
- You seemed upset.
- Upset? No.
1:04:02
- Were you in the room when they did it?
- I'm on the strap-down team.
1:04:06
Left leg. That's my job. The left leg.
1:04:09
We take the prisoner from his cell
to the execution chamber.
1:04:12
- Wow. That's gotta be tough.
- It's hard. I didn't sleep that night.
1:04:19
I think it's gotta affect everybody that
sees it, whether they're for it or against it.
1:04:24
It's just part of the job.
These prisoners get what's comin' to 'em.
1:04:28
It's easy for someone to come in here
and make a rash judgment on procedure.
1:04:33
What may appear on the surface
to be irrational or unnecessary...
1:04:38
...proves upon examination to have solid
reasoning and experience behind it.
1:04:43
Father, all I want is to play a hymn
for Matt before his execution.
1:04:47
And experience tells us
that music stirs up emotion.
1:04:51
Emotion that can produce
an unexpected reaction in the inmate.
1:04:55
All right. Do you have any objection
to my asking the warden for his opinion?
