Riot in Cell Block 11 Page #3

- A couple of hours.

OK.

Attaboy, Dunn!

Good work.

How's it going, Carnie

We're waiting.

We ain't sleeping.

Tony, make a list of all

this stuff here, will you?

Hey, Dunn, I can use that wire.

What do you want to do,

blow us through the roof?

Hey, I've got something to show you

that's terrific, come on.

Hey, what's that?

Learned how to mix that cocktail in

Normandy.

Now watch this

This is a real beauty.

Hey. That's all right.

Crash that through the bars of the window,

it would knock their brains out.

Make some more of them.

There we are. It's finished.

How does that work?

- Here, lend me your neck a minute.

Slip it over the screw's neck.

How does that feel, screw?

That's right, Governor, I need

authority to bargain with Dunn

and to send for the state police.

I warned you we were due for a riot.

I've even got them sleeping

in the corridors of block four.

You're always talking about

overcrowding, old plant,

insufficient personnel.

I don't want to argue that now.

Right now I've got

a riot on my hands.

Give me the authority to act

before this things spreads.

Warden, I can't let convicts

dictate terms to the state.

I'll send Haskell right away.

Yes, sir.

Haskell.

I don't know what that politician

will do here, these men can't vote.

Monroe's wife.

Yes, Mrs Monroe.

Is it true my husband

is in block 11?

That's right, he is in the block.

He'll be killed.

We're not going to let

anything happen to him,

I promise you he'll be all right.

Bye.

Tell the operator not to put any

more of the guards' wives through.

Tell them they'll be OK.

I got four guys on the front gate.

Two on the roof.

The yard's all clear.

Captain Barrett's got nothing on you,

Gator.

You working out demands?

Well, we got a pretty good start.

We should get the colonel in on

this.

I've been thinking about that.

We could sure use him.

Well then use him.

Yeah.

Hey, Colonel.

You're the only guy here besides

me who could lead this riot.

You gonna help us?

I had to hit that boy to

show these gonzos who's boss.

On the street, they think we're

wild animals, tonight you proved it.

What chance do we have if we don't

stick together?

This place is bad enough,

don't you make it worse.

We're trying to work up some demands.

I'm asking everybody for their beefs.

What's yours?

The same as everyone

else, the whole setup.

The bloody cages, the idleness,

but this riot won't change it.

Well, what will?

- Maybe nothing.

We're forgotten.

Colonel, you've got education,

medals, you're used to handling men.

Help us with the demands.

Count me out.

I don't get it.

There are a lot of reasons.

For one thing, I'm up

for parole consideration.
