Honey.
Yeah?
You get that?
Go wash up for dinner, pumpkin-head. OK, I got it.
We've gotta get out of here. What are you doing? Come on!

The Shelton case, where are we?
Let’s make the deal.
They killed a little girl, man.
Some justice is better than no justice at all.
You need to tell her husband.

Now I don’t understand.
With Darby’s testimony¹, Ames will go to death row.
What? The jury is gonna believe me.
The deal is done, I’m sorry. This is just how the justice system works.

What was supposed to be a painless execution has turned into something out of a horror film.

The machine was corrupted².
Who could've done this?
I killed your friend Ames in the prison. And I wanted to keep you all for myself.
Your heart is beating so fast, me too.

Did you murder Clarence Darby?
He killed my wife and child.
I guess we’re done here.
Counselor³, you might wanna cancel your 12:30 lunch with Judge Roberts.
Hello?
You and whoever else who have been helping⁴ you are gonna pay.
Then you are the one that makes deals for murders, yeah? So I have come to make mine. Believeth me.
Or what?
Or I’ll kill everyone.

We have him locked up and he is still killing⁵ people?
I found a couple of contract payments from the Department of Defense⁶.
Tell us what we're dealing⁷ with, a spy?
Spies are a dime⁸ a dozen, Clyde is a brain and he was the best.
If Clyde wants you dead, you’re dead.
We're gonna lock the city down, put an armed cop on every corner.
He is in jail because he wants to be in jail.
I’m gonna bring the whole system down on your head.
It’s gonna be biblical.
You will end this.
I’m just getting warmed up.
