Prison Page #2

I heard some a the guys talkin'

on the line about you.

They said you were some kind

of celebrity or somethin'.

Hey, uh, Joe Lazaro's the name.

But my friends call me Lasagna.

All right.

Okay.

Hey, I heard you could take

anything off four wheels, man,

fly it away to heaven.

Well, don't believe

everything you hear.

- Hey!

- Hi, kid.

I'm Rhino.

You and me's gonna be cellmates.

Just think of me as one

of your roomies in college...

only closer.

And everything

you gotta know,

I'll teach you.

Hey, man, this is where the bottom

of the damn world drops out.

Hey, man, that could be bad

for your health,

if you know what I mean.

I'll take the top.

I'll take the top.

Look man,

I don't even belong here.

I was just trying to visit my Uncle

Angelo in Phoenix, you know,

and I blew my front retread.

So, I'm gettin' myself

a new set a rubber

off this pickup truck

in this guy's driveway, right?

So, I f***ed up,

the guy sees me.

But he goes nuts.

Comes after me with a pistol

and a German shepherd dog.

So, uh, what did you do?

What did I do?

What could I do,

what did I do?

Grabbed the gun and shot

the son of a b*tch and his crazy dog.

Cops grabbed me

just as I was getting

the last tire off the truck.

This sh*t never woulda happened

in New York.

Probably not.

So, I figure...

I'm stuck here, right?

So, I might as well learn a trade

or somethin', you know, like weldin'.

What do you think?

Man, I been doin' time

30 f***in' years.

Only thing I learned how to do is cut

my meat with my spoon.

And call my friend.

My best friend.

Motherf***er.

Yeah.

I love this guy, don't you?

I love this guy.

Sh*t.

You want a drink?

Nah.

Got the habit of drinking

Lysol in Gainesville...

in '49.

You ever been to Florida?

Nah.

Eh, I never saw the beach.

Ten years in Kansas...

never saw the Royals

play a game.

This your first state rap?

Lockdown.

Lockdown.

Yeah, I thought so.

You got the face

of a lifer, though.

Do yourself a favor, car thief.

Make this your last stretch.

Thanks for the advice.

Closing A-block.

Close A-block.

Why me?

I'm gonna need you in here.

I want to see the electrical

blueprints for the entire prison!

Sure.

You don't have

to blow my head off.

I'm sorry, Carl.

I haven't been able to...

Had a tough time...

sleeping lately.

Everything quiet on the block?

Yeah, just like it always is

on the first night.

Yes.

First few days

are always the quietest.

They haven't had a...

chance to form cliques.

They can be managed

when they're disorganized.

I'll stay on top of 'em.

Yes.

Why don't you get some rest?

Thank you, Carl.

Lotta work ahead of us.

Yeah.

Lotta work.
