Inside the Walls of Folsom Prison Page #2

all privileges are cancelled.

The men not assigned to jobs will be

locked in their cells 24 hours a day.

Stop the tobacco issue.

Lights out in the cells

the minute the men get back from supper.

Sherman,

Tell the mess sergeant

to cut the con's meals to the bone.

No meat, not sugar,

beans three times a day.

And close the canteen

till further orders.

Sergeant, you're acting

Captain of the guard.

I'll recommend you to the board,

make your promotion permanent.

Thank you very much, Sir.

I want you to take the men

who instigated this riot

Say about three weeks before

they come to trial...

And give them

six hours a day on the horse.

Right!

Now...

I'll talk to Jeffrey.

Take the cuffs of him.

Go ahead.

Jeff isn't dangerous.

Not now.

Wait outside.

Jeff...

You're a bigger fool

than I thought you were.

Nobody ever escapes

what they've done.

Nobody.

Six of you got through the gate.

There were others who couldn't make it,

others who were all set to go.

- Who were they?

- Didn't your stool pigeon tell you that?

He told us there was a break coming.

But he couldn't tell us when

or who'd be in on it.

I'll make a deal with you.

The name of the stool pigeon

for the names of those who missed out.

I know the name of the stool pigeon.

Look, you're no hoodlum like the others.

Why protect them.

Officers have been killed.

That means the death sentence.

I can get you a commutation.

You know Stu was in on it,

wasn't he?

Daley...

Tinker...

Pardue...

Daniels...

You're not even warm, Warden.

Not Daniels, your good friend?

- You wouldn't go without him.

- He didn't know anything about it.

Neither did the others.

You're wasting my time

and your life, Jeff.

Now you know you're going to tell me.

Sit down.

Don't you know

hospitality when you see it?

That was a mistake, Jeff.

Now we're really

going to have a little session.

- Not Daniels?

- Not Daniels.

Two.

Two.

Three.

Five.

Three.

Got it from an orderly in the hospital.

He got it from a guy

who works in administration.

Jeff wouldn't talk,

no matter what they did to him.

Jeff thinks somebody tipped

the warden off about the break.

- That's what it looks like.

- Yeah.

- But who?

- That's one thing that can't be covered up.

The name of the stool pigeon.

Somebody knows who he is.

Somebody'll find out.

Yeah, that'll be the end of him.

The end of him, yeah.

But not the end of Rickey.

Turning men against each other,

tormenting them until they fight back.

And get shot down.

We'll have him on our necks

till we get out. Get me?

Out!

I told you guys not to smoke in here.

You know what we got

stashed in this cell?

Wanna be carried out

of here in a basket?
