Hey, Sheriff.
A Mercury... is a real good car.
That was the car I was driving that day.
I have a lot of cars.
Yeah. Different kinds.
A lot of different kinds of cars.
She was standing, this girl,
where there was this chicken stand.
It wasn't the Colonel,
but a chicken stand nevertheless.
I pulled the Mercury
right up alongside,
and I rolled down the window,
see, by electric power.
And she had this leather skirt on.
And she had a lot of hair on her arms.
I like that, I like that a lot.
It means a big bush. I like a big bush.
So she says, "Are you dating?" You know?
I said, "Sure." So she gets in.
And we pull off
into this remote location, you know,
that was comfortable for both she and I.
And she says to me,
"How much do you wanna spend?"
I said, "Whatever it takes to see
that bush, 'cause I know it's big."
And she says to me, "$25."
That's not chicken feed,
you know, to a working man.
So I produce the $25
and she sticks it down into her shoe
and pulls up her skirt.
And there before me lay this thin,
crooked, uncircumcised penis.
You can imagine how bad
I wanted my $25 back.
I don't know why you're weirded out.
This is not San Quentin.
It's a nuthouse.
These people don't know where they are.
They're not gonna hurt you.
We're gonna be in a room with a killer.
That doesn't bother you?
You're the one
that wanted to major in journalism.
These are the people
from that newspaper.
- Yeah. From the college?
- Yes, sir.
- Jerry Woolridge.
- Nice to meet you. I'm Marsha Dwiggins.
This is Theresa Evans.
She's here to take the pictures.
Y'all sit down.
There was a young man
named John Legit Hunter
who was in a good
filling station business.
But he was one of these young men
we run across, I'm sure you have,
who didn't deserve what he had.
And one of the things he had was this...
beautiful young bride,
Sarah.
She was a Georgia peach.
In fact, she was more like
the picture I had in my mind
than any woman I had ever seen.
So I took it upon myself
to take her away from John Legit Hunter,
who did not deserve her, you know?
I don't know if I told you,
but he was a Frenchman
who claimed to be an Englishman.
Took a lot of strong nylon cord
to get her away from him,
'cause she was a fighter
as well as being a Georgia peach.
have been a little mix-up.
I talked to your sponsor or teacher,
or whoever he is,
and I told him that
there couldn't be any pictures.
It's supposed to be an article or story,
something like that, isn't that right?
Well, it's for the school newspaper,
but it has pictures.
I mean, it's a regular paper.
Karl's real sensitive
about having his picture made.
He wouldn't even be on the
bulletin board for the Easter collage.
Now...
a shovel just makes
too goddamn much racket.
All I can do is talk to him,
see what he says.
You gotta make something explode
to truly understand it,
examine all those little tiny particles
while they're still on fire.
Karl, I've gotta take you
down to the old classroom.
Mr. Woolridge has some people
for you to see down there.
Come on, let's go.
You remember me telling you about
those people from that newspaper?
They wanna ask you some questions
about your release.
They think it'll make a good story.
Will you talk to 'em?
Get interviewed?
Now, they're women.
Think it'd be good for you, too.
You're gonna be seeing all kinds
of people when you get on the outside.
This'll help, I believe.
Now, here's the thing.
He'll only talk to you,
Now, here's the thing.
He'll only talk to you,
