It's all happening right in front of your eyes over and over. Your body's here, but your mind is still there. There's a door and you want to go through it to get away from it, so you do and it leads you right back to that moment. And you see that door again and you know it won't work, but, hell, maybe it'll work. So you step through that door and you're right back in that horrible moment every time. You still feel it every time. So you just want to stop opening that door. So you just sit in it. But I assure you, one of those doors leads out, my friend."

She had won it at a carnival in school that day. She said it'd make me feel lucky and I'd feel better. The next morning I found a flyer to Aikido. Damn thing worked."

  • (Eastman) "Built this place with my wife a while before our daughter was born. It didn't have a cell back then. That was just the other side of the living room. In my job I interviewed over 800 men and 25 women convicted of awful things. Stuff from the darkest part of the human soul. I was evaluating a man by the name of Crighton Dallas Wilton. Name like that, sounded like he should own an oil company and wear a big hat; Crighton Dallas Wilton. Despite doing some truly unspeakable acts, he was up for parole. And he was one of the most damn likeable people I had ever met. He said all the right things, he went to therapy. He wrote letters to the prison board to start a program to grow flowers for the waiting rooms in state hospitals, rest rooms. And I saw right through him. Saw that he was a true psychopath, that he knew how to play people, exactly how to play people. I was interviewing him next to the cafeteria. The place smelled of industrial pizza. They were polishing the floor. I had to shout my questions half the time. And there was this moment. Uh. Can't even remember the exchange. But right then I knew that Crighton knew that I knew exactly what he was. Everything he had said, had done to hide away what he was from everyone, from himself, just slipped away, and -- and that model prisoner of 10 years stood up, smiled, and just cracked me across the face. His fist felt like a rock. Then he was on top of me and the floor polisher next door was thudding out every sound. And I; And I saw his face, his; His eyes, his evil. Mask had slipped. And he was gonna kill me right then and there because he knew I would make sure he would never get out again."
  • (Eastman) "Arm bar counter for being choked from a pinned position. Aikido. I wasn't taking it for self-defense, but it saved my life. And I got to make sure he never got out again. Well, got to try. He got out. Talked to the right people who got him the right things and he broke out, but it wasn't to escape. Crighton Dallas Wilton went to my home and killed my wife, my daughter, and my son. He walked down the street to the police station around the corner covered in their blood. He surrendered. Said the only reason he broke out, was to destroy my life."
  • (Eastman) "My daughter drew this on the hallway wall of our house. She thought I'd get mad. I just put a frame around it. After I went back, when I found out I couldn't turn myself in because there was no one to turn myself in to, I went back home and cut this from the wall. I lost the car on the way back. I walked through 30 miles of the dead for a piece of drywall."

  • (Wolves Leader) "I saw how settled this place was in the pictures I found. I thought maybe there'd be something here. Medicine to help this. But that was before you people won. So I know I'm probably going to die. But if I don't -- I am going to have to kill you, Morgan. I'm going to have to kill every person here. Every one of them. The children, too. Just like your friend Eastman's children. Those are the rules. That's my code. I'd say I'm sorry, but you said it right. Don't ever be sorry."

We're connected. You know, I've interviewed over 825 people who've done terrible things. I've only met one evil person. Some of them were born with bad brains. Some of them got sick along the way. The rest were just damaged people. Traumatized themselves like you, but they could heal. Some more, some less, but they can. We all can. I know it. It's all a circle and everything gets a return."
