In the morning and afternoon...
...it shuttled the school children
to San Francisco for classes.
It was also used to transport prisoners
to the island.
Whenever possible, having children and
prisoners on the boat at the same time...
...was avoided.
Don't look at the children.
I'll take the kids into the city...
...and we'll go shopping.
Honey, can I call you back?
The warden's here.
- Good morning, warden.
- Good morning.
- When did you arrive on the island?
Good.
- Sit down.
- Thank you.
Mr. Glenn...
...I've been going over
the rotation figures...
...in the solitary-confinement cells.
Is there something wrong, sir?
Well, I don't know.
I don't think this can be right.
What's that, sir?
Well, here, 244.
According to this, he's been in there
since March of'38.
I don't believe there's been
an attitude change...
...with regard to 244, sir.
He's not like the other inmates.
But that's over three years.
He masterminded the escape attempt
in'38.
And there hasn't been an attempt since.
If you let those animals believe
that escape is possible...
...heh, you might as well stick in
a revolving door.
I think he has learned his lesson.
Come on, Henri. Let's go.
Henri Young had been rehabilitated.
I was now a public defender
in San Francisco.
Eat, Young!
You know the rules.
You don't eat, you go to solitary.
Now, get with it!
Two times two is four.
Two times four is...
...eight.
Two times five, 10.
Twelve times eight...
...ninety-six.
Hey, Henri, McCain,
he put you in the hole.
Put you in the hole.
McCain's still here. Look.
McCain put you in the hole.
Put you in the hole.
McCain, put you in the hole.
Put you in the hole.
Get them back.
Get them back against the wall now.
What happened?
I don't know.
The United States ofAmerica...
...v. Henri Young.
Charged with murder in the first degree.
Approach the bench.
Charged with murder in the first degree.
"Henri Young, Rufus McCain,
in there, striking and wounding...
...sharp steel instrument,
to wit, a spoon."
A spoon. A spoon? Heh.
This can't be right.
- That's right.
- f you say so.
"To wit, a spoon,
about four inches in length...
...which, striking and wounding,
described as foresaid...
...caused the said Rufus McCain
thereafter...
...to wit, on June 11, 1941 to die."
Trial set one week from Thursday,
June 22.
I know you can do it.
The fourth at Pimlico, the derby.
Come on, boy.
You can do it. You've got four furlongs.
Don't be cursing this streetcar.
Pick them up and lay them down.
Let those legs just pump like pistons.
