Lust for Freedom (1987) - full transcript
A former female cop is framed by corrupt police, acting in collusion with the local judge, and has to fight her way out of the pen, alone, against tough inmates, and the people in charge.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
The story that I
have to tell is about freedom.
But it became a
nightmare because of what
we had to go through to win it.
It was a nightmare, because
I took my freedom for granted
until suddenly one
day it was gone.
This is a story about the terror
and torture that I and others
endured passively,
like scared rabbits,
until we finally gained
our lust for freedom.
My name is Gillian Kaites.
It used to be Undercover
Detective Gillian Kaites.
I was one of the
best on the force.
Three mayor's citations for
dangerous undercover work.
But I made one mistake-- I
fell in love with my partner.
Ron Peterson had-- believe
it or not-- become my fiance.
He had been working side by
side infiltrating a small arms
smuggling connection.
Finally, months of work
were coming to a climax.
I found out that a huge
shipment had just arrived,
so Ron was pretending to
be an arms buyer with ties
to certain terrorist groups.
And I was posing as
a lowlife go-between.
Those drinking bums
in the parking lot
were really our
undercover backup.
Parker, who always came through
in a pinch, and Saunders,
a very green rookie.
Ron was going to
meet with the head
man of the whole operation,
a guy named Jonathan Trauma,
or JT for short.
I had worked hard and long
getting him to trust me.
I hated JT.
Hi, Sunny.
JT, good to see you.
Hi.
This is, uh, Ron, the guy
I was telling you about.
So what?
I just hope we can
do business together.
My end of the deal is in place.
You mind if we search you?
No, go ahead.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Ron and I had
been partners for two years.
We were going to get
married in three days.
We'd put the wedding
off four times,
but we both agreed that
after this big job,
we deserved some time together.
Everything was going
according to plan.
Two more minutes and
it would all be over.
But I didn't count
on that rookie
Saunders jumping the gun.
Stop!
Police!
Hold it right there!
[grunting]
Don't get in middle of this.
I'm getting a
promotion for this.
[phone rings]
Oh, shit.
That must be my old lady.
Just-- just cool it.
I'll get rid of her.
Hello?
Yeah, Whitey.
What's up?
Yeah, uh-huh.
What?
When?
Motherfucker!
Freeze!
[gunshots]
[off-hook tone]
Ron?
Ron!
[screams]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Thanks to that dumb rookie,
my fiance was dead.
But at least JT didn't get away.
There he is!
Get him!
What about this guy?
Go check on Ron and Gillian.
I'll take care of this bastard.
[gunshots]
[off-hook tone]
Ron?
(CRYING) No!
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Hell was
breaking loose all around
me, but I didn't hear it.
I'll get you!
Forgot your key, butthead?
[screaming]
[glass shattering]
[thud]
There's enough here
to blow up ten cities.
Ron!
Gillian!
Get in here!
I found it.
Hey!
What do you think you're doing?
You scum!
Pull a gun on me?
I'll show you.
Bye, scumbag.
[door creaks]
PARKER: Ron!
Gillian!
Get in here.
I need cover!
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I should have answered him,
but I couldn't.
GOON: You finks are all alike!
You're all stupid assholes!
[maniacal laughter]
Well, then I've got a
surprise for you, scum.
See you in Hell!
GOON: Huh?
Holy--
[explosion, screaming]
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "LUST FOR
FREEDOM"]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): Cops
were dying all over the place,
and all I could do
was act like a woman.
I knew my days as
a cop were over.
I had to get away.
I had no idea where I was
going, and I didn't care.
There was nothing for
me in this city anymore.
Without Ron, my life
was meaningless.
[phone ringing]
GILLIAN (ON PHONE): Hello?
Hello, Gillian?
This is Captain Franklin.
No, she's not here.
When do you expect her?
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I drove away.
I drove aimlessly for days.
I drove until it
got to the point
where all the
roads looked alike,
and it didn't matter
which direction I went in.
I don't really know why
I stopped by the lake.
Maybe I was just
drawn by its beauty.
I hadn't been in a place
like this for years.
It was soothing.
Everything was so quiet.
I almost felt
peaceful, and peace
was exactly what I needed now.
Peace, and the time to
think things through.
Little did I know
what was happening
just a few hundred feet away.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
When I got back to
the car, I could
sense that something was wrong.
But that was only the beginning.
Oh, God, please!
Please!
Please stop!
Please stop the car!
Stop the car!
Please!
I'm stuck!
Please!
Please.
You've got to help me.
I escaped from the
work farm last night.
My God!
I was up at the house.
I know what you must be
thinking, but I'm no criminal!
I was just passing through
like you, and like the others.
It's been a nightmare!
We gotta get past the line.
They won't go beyond
the county line.
Wait a minute.
What is going on?
They'll kill me
if they catch me.
Can't you drive faster?
[car horn honking]
Keep going.
The black van!
Don't you understand?
They'll kill you!
[car horn honking]
Whatever you do, don't stop!
Keep going!
[sirens approaching]
What are you doing?
Don't stop!
Don't!
[screaming]
Good afternoon, ma'am.
You letting her go?
No, we're not really.
There's hardly
anything between here
and 30 miles in any direction.
I suppose the girl told you
she escaped from the work farm?
Wearing an evening dress?
That is kind of
silly, isn't it?
Well, I guess the
little girl just
thought she'd be better off--
in something pretty, that is.
[engine revving]
Is anything going
to happen to her?
No, no.
These things happen
every once in a while.
Nothing to be alarmed about.
Look, uh, may I have a look-see
at your driver's license,
please?
Would you remove it from
your wallet, please?
You're a long ways
from home, Miss Kaites.
Hardly anyone comes out here
anymore, what with the freeway
passing us by a long shot.
OK, it's in order.
I know you're probably
in a hurry to get back,
but I was wondering if you
could follow me to the office.
Why?
Well, we have to
take a statement
regarding this incident.
Now, it's only a
mile down the road.
It won't take very long.
All right.
OK, good.
Oh.
I'll get you back on the road
in two shakes of a lamb's tail,
how's that?
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
[gunshot, screaming]
Open your eyes, bitch.
I want you to see this coming.
[gunshot]
[chuckles]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
The last person
I wanted to be
around now was a cop,
but I knew where
he was coming from.
He needed my
statement, and I knew
too well how difficult it is
when witnesses don't cooperate.
Besides, I really had
nothing better to do anyway.
Turned out I was in a place
called Georgia County.
I didn't know
exactly where it was,
but it sure wasn't in Georgia.
The best I could figure, it
was somewhere near the border
of California and Mexico.
[dog barking]
Well, Miss Kaites, this is our
women's correctional facility.
Now my office is over this way.
Go ahead.
Take your hands off
me, you rat eater!
I'm gonna teach you to fight.
Mind your Ps and Qs.
Sheriff called.
Vicky's been a naughty girl.
I'm taking her to detention
room for corrective training.
She be staying with us?
No!
She staying with us?
Why don't you just get
a move on, Ms. Pusker?
Go on.
VICKY: Let go of me!
You know, I'm afraid
Ms. Pusker's a little--
if you know what I mean.
But until we can find
someone to replace her,
I guess she'll be head
matron of this facility.
I'll tell you what.
Walk this way, please.
All right.
Where were you headed?
Away.
No place in particular.
Got a family expecting you?
No.
Pretty girl like you must
have lot of friends, then?
No, not really.
You know, I really
admire a person like you,
independent as yourself.
Ah, here's your
drink, Miss Kaites.
You really must be thirsty.
And I'll go look for that form.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Sheriff Coale was OK.
The place seemed normal enough.
But something inside
me caught my police
experience, or just
women's intuition,
told me things weren't right.
You seem like such a nice girl.
Want me to be so easy?
Now.
When you escaped,
where were you headed?
I was going home,
where I belong.
Don't lie.
You were headed east on Highway
58 when you were captured.
There's nothing on that
road for 200 miles.
I was gonna hitch
a ride, that's all.
Don't lie to me, bitch!
Now you gonna tell me
where you were going.
You were going to
have your boyfriend
pick you up down the highway.
Weren't you?
What can I say to convince you?
Just the truth, bitch.
That's all.
Now, who helped you escape?
I planned this alone.
Look.
We've already captured the
other girl who escaped with you.
You tell us who
else is involved,
your punishment will be lighter.
Nobody else was involved.
Did Sharon help you?
No.
Check her for contraband.
[scream]
Is there something
wrong, Miss Kaites?
[moan]
[thud]
[humming]
More dead meat.
Can you, uh, file
her belongings
in the county police?
Just a lot a worthless
junk in a purse.
Typical women stuff.
Oh yes, uh, let's charge Miss
Kaites with illegal possession
of drugs, all right?
Well, what kind?
Well, check in the
safe and see what
we got on stock, all right?
(LAUGHING) Oh.
In the meantime, I'll
take her over to the house
and get some work done on her.
And will you please get the
paperwork done on Miss Kaites
and get her car ready
for transport to Mexico?
Can you do that?
-Yeah.
I don't see much of you
around here anymore, Karen.
I've been busy, Ms. Pusker.
Too busy to see old friends?
Well, I've got my duty.
(LAUGHING) Yes.
The shitters.
Where you conveniently put this.
Honest.
I found it, Ms. Pusker.
Honest, my ass.
Now I want to know who's
bringing it in, how much,
and where you're hiding it.
I don't know.
I found it.
[gun cocks]
--[laughter] You didn't
find it in no toilet.
You're probably a
little goob trying
to muscle in on my action.
Now I want to know
who's bringing it in.
It's not true.
There's no one.
[moaning, humming]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I was in a room somewhere.
I couldn't get
myself to wake up.
I was so tired.
All I knew was that
I was terrified.
Was I dreaming some
kind of nightmare?
[chuckles]
[woman sobbing]
You know, Karen, everything
that Big Eddie touches
seems to grow and turn green.
Everything you touch
seems to turn to shit!
Don't you agree?
I'm not hearing you, Karen.
Yes, Ms. Pusker.
There's something
deceptive about a rose.
And looks so beautiful
and smells so sweet.
Appears so soft and safe.
And yet.
[yelp]
Now, who brought it in?
My boyfriend.
And you distribute how much?
Not much.
Very little.
From now on, you
bring it to me.
All of it.
You tell your boyfriend
to keep it coming,
and that you're mine
while you're in here.
Mine!
Do I make myself
perfectly clear?
All mine!
[phone ringing]
Where's Miss Kaites's car?
Garage.
Being fitted for
shipment to Mexico.
Get the paperwork finished?
Almost.
All right.
Afterwards I would like you to
prepare a file on this case,
would you?
I'm bogged down in paperwork!
Why are we always
pushing papers?
Because this is a business.
And because we have to have
information for our record.
You know, like profits and
losses, that sort of thing?
Blowing away that
little girl's brains--
was that profit or loss?
You'll have to ask
Maxwell that question.
That's his department.
You know something, Scruggs?
SCRUGGS: What?
Sometimes your worry me.
Why's that?
Well, sometimes I think
you've got a conscience.
Is that good or bad?
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
When I came to,
I was sopping wet and nauseous.
I could tell a lot
of time had gone by,
and I was in some
kind of prison cell.
Why was I here and
what had happened?
What was going on?
Obey me.
You're under my care now.
Do you understand?
Don't understand?
You will.
Hey!
Somebody in there?
Who's there?
It's me, Vicky.
What are you in for?
Ain't much of a talker, are you?
Ain't nobody stopped
me once I got started.
Once my grandma tried to.
Beat the shit out of her.
Not even Ms. Pusker.
She'll get hers.
Hey!
What's up in there?
What's going on?
Gloria?
Are you in there already
with Randy making out?
Ms. Pusker catches you, she'll
make you do it in front of her.
That bitch, Ms. Pusker.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I was going
to demand some answers
from the sheriff,
but I didn't get the chance.
Move it!
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I guess I was
still too dazed to fight back.
Fixed you up for a date.
Bet you'll like him.
Mind your manners.
You may go, Ms. Pusker.
Come in, Miss Kaites.
Sit down, please.
My name is Maxwell, and I'm the
warden at this here facility.
May I make a phone call?
No, I'm afraid that won't be
possible at this time, Miss
Kaites.
You've already had three
long-distance calls.
I think that's plenty for now.
I never made a call, let
alone a long-distance one!
Well, I beg to differ.
You just don't remember
making them calls.
This is getting us nowhere.
As I understand
it, Miss Kaites,
judging from this report,
you've been higher than a kite
ever since you came here.
That's a lie!
I beg to differ.
A search of your
vehicle uncovered
a wide range of illegal
drugs in your possession.
Why are you feeding me
this load of bullshit?
Now, wild talk like that
ain't going to get you nowhere,
Miss Kaites.
The judge, he decided already to
go light on you, thinking maybe
you're just a little misguided.
And in light of that
fact, he gave you
an indeterminate
sentence, which means
that you'll be out
of here in no time
if you just behave yourself.
I could be here forever!
Well, now, forever's
a long time.
I want to see an attorney.
I have constitutional rights!
And we have bent over backwards
to comply with your demands.
But frankly, Miss Kaites,
I don't give a damn
about your
constitutional rights,
as you see it to make a
mockery of our judicial system.
Ms. Pusker!
Now, if you just
behave yourself,
Miss Kaites, life can be very
easy for you around here.
Is there a possibility
that I could see the judge?
You're looking at him.
I told you she was no good.
Let's go.
Gillian?
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): All
I could do was stare at him.
Sheriff Coale, will you tell
one of your deputies to release
Vicky from the cooler?
Yeah, sure.
Let's go.
Take a shower, put
these on, and put
your street clothes over here.
Move it!
Mm-mmm.
[wolf whistle]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I was in shock.
I just couldn't get
my brain to work.
From now on, you're placed
into the general population.
Do as you're told, and
there'll be no trouble.
Don't personally do this to
you lovely, stupid [inaudible].
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Ms. Pusker
was straight out of some
low-budget prison movie.
But this wasn't a movie.
This was real.
Stop.
This one's yours.
Starting tomorrow
you get work detail.
Make your bed.
I'll be back later
to check on it.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
The bed was already made,
but I wasn't in a
state of mind to argue
with this sadistic maniac, so I
started to make the bed again.
[voice on pa system]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Little did I
know what was about to happen.
Get away from my bed!
You're dead!
Dead meat!
Out of the way.
Get off!
[inmates clamoring]
Think you're pretty cute with
that karate shit, don't you?
SHERIFF COALE:
Excuse me, please.
All right, excuse me.
What the hell is going on here?
What is this, Ms. Pusker?
Just a little misunderstanding.
Nothing I can't handle.
Fucking shit was taking my bed.
Nobody takes my bed.
When I come back,
I always come back.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
I wasn't told.
All right, girls.
The show's over.
Everybody out, ladies.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
They had screwed up my mind
so that I couldn't think.
Thanks to my police training,
they hadn't screwed up my body.
Yet.
You're slipping.
I didn't know she
used that stuff.
I'll get her next time.
There won't be a next time.
Not like that.
What do you mean?
Heard of a game
called Kick the Can?
Yeah.
Played it when I was a kid.
So what?
You're gonna play it
again, only this time
it's gonna be my version.
My game's called Kick the Bag.
You're gonna enjoy it.
Is there anything
I can do to help?
No, Holly, everything's
under control.
Nosy, aren't you?
No, Ms. Pusker.
That can be dangerous.
You're hurting me!
Do you understand?
Yes, ma'am.
Please let me go.
VICKY: Gillian!
Who's there?
Me, slut.
I got a score to
settle with you.
Look, I don't have
any beef with you.
It's over.
You've got your bed back.
You put me down.
You embarrassed me in there.
Nobody does that to me.
[screaming]
Now!
Get her!
The slut's turned on.
[moaning, grunting]
SCRUGGS: What's
going on in there?
VICKY: Scum bucket!
What the hell
happened here, Scruggs?
She was bagged
and kicked around.
Well, did you
recognize any of them?
No, sir.
It was too dark.
Another
misunderstanding, Pusker?
I suppose you know
nothing about this.
Not a thing.
Should I investigate, sir?
What?
No one knows
anything about this.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): I
hated Sheriff Coale for getting
me into this, but
there was something
about him that seemed different
from the rest of these animals.
If I could just
get through to him.
When I got out of the infirmary,
I lay in a cell, recovering.
For five years I had been a cop
putting criminals behind bars,
and now I was
behind bars myself.
Caged alongside the same
petty trash and scum
that I had helped put away.
I knew a lot of
brutality and perversion
was going on in those
cells, but I didn't care.
I had my own problems.
JACKIE: Watch my kids grow up.
Get old with my husband.
LYNN: Hey, that
sounds really nice.
Wishful thinking, huh?
No.
You can have all that.
We'll get out of here.
Don't worry.
Yeah.
You know, this may
sound crazy to you,
and I've never even talked
about it with anyone here.
What about?
Well, we've been real
close these last few months.
I can't get you out of my mind.
Every time I dream,
I see your face.
I'm lonely, Lynn.
I never had a woman
touch me like that.
Make love to me, Lynn.
Please?
All right.
That'll be your lousy
hundred bucks, there!
Please stop.
I'm doing the best I can.
Nobody's buying.
Or maybe you just
don't try hard enough.
I can't force the girls to buy!
Big Eddie's watching
every move I make!
Maybe I'll take out the rest
of this week's money in trade.
What do you mean?
Take off your clothes.
That's what I mean.
No!
What did you say?
I didn't hear you.
Nothing.
I didn't say nothing.
That's more like it. [cackling]
[moaning]
[music playing]
[heavy breathing]
[laughing]
What are you going
to do with me?
I'll teach you a lesson
you'll never forget.
Gonna wish you never escaped.
Ha!
Please help.
Let me go!
Let me go.
Nobody escapes from here.
Nobody!
[whipping, screaming, laughing]
You wanna see my John Henry?
I'll show you my John Henry.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): And why
should I care about the
screams of these women?
It's true that in one
sense they were my sisters,
but they were hardened
criminals, weren't they?
Besides, there were
still screams of my own
that I couldn't forget.
[sobbing]
MAXWELL: Doc, it's mighty
good of you to come.
I sure hope it's worth
it in all this heat.
Oh, I'm sure you'll be pleased.
We will see.
Take a deep breath.
Open wide.
What are you in for?
I don't really know.
They said I had drugs in my car.
Same here.
I think most of the girls
aren't supposed to be here.
What do you mean?
Well, I think there's
something funny going on.
I mean, look around.
None of these girls seem
to be hardened criminals.
They're not
prostitutes or robbers.
They're nice girls.
But I don't know.
I'm afraid.
I'm scheduled to be
released next week.
What are you afraid of?
Some of the girls, they
only stay a short time.
There are never
any visitors here.
No phone calls.
I mean, doesn't that
seem strange to you?
Yeah.
Pyorrhea.
P-I-A--
Cody, if you're
going to work for me,
you're going to have
to learn how to spell.
Oh, I will, Doc.
I will.
I promise.
I give her five.
Next.
CODY: Bring in
the next prisoner.
That ain't necessary, Doc.
I got a good heart.
It's required.
Here, then.
Let me help you.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Didn't I tell you, Doc?
Ain't nothing wrong
with my heart.
Let me be the judge of that.
Aw, Doc, that was
a good cigarette.
Open your mouth.
Say ahh.
Ahh.
Don't you believe in
brushing your teeth?
Only when I'm going to
kiss a good-looking male,
and there ain't none
of those around here.
Hmm.
Hmm.
I ain't no piece of
meat to be picked at!
No need for that, Cody.
Just trying to protect
my employer here, Sheriff.
Now, calm down, Vicky.
I ain't gonna let that
son of a bitch touch me.
You apologize to
the Doc, Vicky!
I ain't going to apologize
to that flesh peddler.
Get her out of here!
Let me go!
DOCTOR: Help me up.
VICKY: Let me go!
Let me go.
Young people today.
No wonder we lost the war.
But Doc, you haven't
seen all the girls yet!
I've been knocked
down and insulted.
I'm hot and dirty.
I'm calling it a day.
But Doc, you
haven't seen Holly,
and I was saving her
especially for you.
Doctor Bass, this is Holly.
Well, how old are you, child?
17.
17.
Imagine that.
Where you from, child?
From Houston, Texas.
All the way from Texas.
Any family there?
No, I was an orphan.
Good.
I mean, I'm sorry.
We're gonna have to do
something about that.
But a quick
examination's in order.
Take a big gulp of
air and suck it in.
That's right, honey.
All the way.
Suck it in all the way.
That's right, all the way in.
That's it.
Suck it in all the way.
Doc, Doc, come out of it.
Come out of it.
[exhales] Sorry, Doctor.
I must have her, Cody.
The marvellous ones.
You know what to do.
Open, dear.
Open wide.
Say ahh.
Ahh.
[clears throat]
Doc, what's wrong?
Why you leaving?
The contest is over, Maxwell.
But what about Holly?
She didn't make it.
You must be crazy.
Look at her.
She's young and wholesome
and she's a beauty.
She may be in your eyes, but
in my client's eyes-- you know,
I'm dealing with a
different clientele now.
They notice things like
bad bite, crooked teeth,
ratty hair, rough complexion.
But you could fix all that.
Sure, but it takes money.
The state don't
pay me to fix teeth.
And I can't make
them girls brush.
I'm sorry.
She's very nice in
spite of these defects.
How much would you
give for her as is?
Well, considering she
needs a lot of work, I would
have to invest about, uh--
How much?
3,000.
3,000?
Why, she's worth at least five!
Doc Bass don't pay no top
dollar for damaged goods.
Bad bite, crooked teeth,
frayed hair, malnutrition.
Very good, Cody boy.
Very good.
Pay the man.
That's, uh, 3,000 in cash.
Doc Bass don't carry no cash.
Not in Georgia County.
Like, you never know who
you might run into out here.
I'm gonna take you away
from all this, child.
I'm gonna take you
to my home, where
we will put good
food in your stomach,
and good clothes on your back.
Pervert.
Well, you got 3,000.
That's good enough, isn't it?
Oh, she's worth
twice that much,
and that bastard will
sell her for that, too.
Well, maybe he just
wants her for himself.
Dirty old man.
Look, Coale, we got
to get rid of Vicky.
She has become a burden,
and we ain't in business
to carry no deficits.
Yeah.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Luckily, I didn't
get to see Doc Bass that day.
When I got back to my cell,
I found I had a roommate.
Are you all right?
Yeah.
My name's Gillian.
What's yours?
Sharon.
Why am I here?
Why can't I leave?
Why have I been here so long?
What were you charged With
Possession of illegal
drugs or something.
It's a frame.
I never saw that stuff
before in my life!
I just want to go home.
I know my parents are worried.
They'll never find me here.
Where are they?
Hollister, California.
They have a farm on
the outskirts of town.
You know, Mom and
Dad are pretty old.
And they had trouble
relating to me,
but they never wailed
on me or anything.
I just wish I could go home.
I'd never run away again.
We'll see what we
can do about that.
You'd better rest.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Even though I had ceased
to care about
myself, Sharon was so
innocent and helpless
that something within me
began to stir.
When I look back on
it now, I realize
that it was meeting Sharon
that sparked the first embers
of resistance in me.
Meanwhile, the goings on at
the prison were getting worse.
First, Maxwell got even
with Vicky for screwing
things up with Doc Bass.
I said I'd look into it.
In the meantime, I got a
girl I got to get rid of.
I've arranged a little
wrestling match tonight.
How does that sound?
Good.
Who is it?
Vicky.
Break her in half.
Show her who's the boss.
That stupid bitch.
I'd reckon I've raised some
feathers on her back today.
Well, she can take
out her frustrations
on the wrestling match tonight.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
And because Doc Bass
was getting greedy,
Maxwell had an idea
to eliminate the middleman.
Using the prisoners
as talent, he started
to make his own porno movies.
Of course, Maxwell's
idea of a porno movie
was sicker than anything
anybody could imagine.
Please, no more.
Henry, did you
finish with that tape?
No, I got more.
MAXWELL: Well, save
it for the new girl.
We got a special
order on this one.
HENRY: You want
the video camera?
MAXWELL: Is it connected?
HENRY: Ready to go.
You feeling pretty good, hon?
[giggling]
Please.
Please.
I didn't do nothing.
Don't make me do it!
Shut up, you
yellow-bellied hippie!
Do as I told you.
No, I won't.
Bullshit!
Do as I told you!
No, never!
I don't care what you do to me!
No, please don't.
You do it right, and
it'll be all over.
Now get your pantywaist
ass over there!
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
[gunshot]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Sheriff Coale, however,
was a mystery.
He didn't seem as bad as the
rest, but he did his part.
Hello, Charlie.
Weather's cleared up a bit.
Sheriff Coale, what's up?
Well, Charlie, we had another
accident at the prison,
and I, uh, I'd like you
do the paperwork on it.
Would you do that?
I'll do that.
Just, uh, just mark her
down as another Jane Doe,
would you do that?
I'll take care of it.
See you later.
[sirens]
Where were you
going, young lady?
Nowhere special.
Would you like
a ride into town?
Yeah, that'd be fine.
Why don't you hop in?
Tomorrow I want you
to get us a new girl,
and make sure she's pretty, too.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Jud and the others
who ran the place
took special delight
in the pain of other people.
Pusker treated
people like animals.
Even though she had
used Vicky to get at me,
she had no loyalty to her.
This time she would use
Big Eddie to get Vicky.
Hey.
Big Eddie.
Yes, Ms. Pusker.
Ah, Warden Maxwell says there's
going to be wrestling match.
Yeah, who's the competition?
Me and you?
Nah, some girl the warden
wants to get rid of.
What's in it for me?
What do you want?
An evening alone with Sharon.
OK, you've got it.
But no rough stuff.
BIG EDDIE: Sure.
PUSKER: Here she comes now.
Vicky!
Move your ass over here!
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): And
Vicky fell right into her trap.
Yeah, what?
You stupid bitch.
You're standing on my garden.
What garden, fatso?
This garden.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
PUSKER: Come on!
Stand up, all right?
The warden's coming.
All right.
Any time, any place, I'll
break your chicken neck.
Listen, baby, I'll
stick those pants
up where the sun don't shine.
Any time!
Get back to work!
[shrieking, laughing]
Get me a beer, will you?
Ah, fuck!
Oh, man!
Oh, fuck.
That's funny.
That's funny.
Jesus.
[shrieking, laughing]
[car horn honking]
[shrieking, laughing]
Hey, you goddamn asshole!
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Sheriff Coale
was about to be confronted
with a situation
that he had secretly known
for a long time would happen.
He had always tried not
to think about it, though.
But it was about to hit
him right between the eyes.
Sheriff!
Sheriff!
My name is Warren Clarke.
I'm glad to see you.
I'm Sheriff Coale,
what can I do for you?
I understand you
found my daughter.
Your daughter?
My daughter, Sharon.
Oh, Sharon Clarke.
Who told you I found her?
Mr. Holbrook.
Mr--
To your left, your
right, your left.
Go to your left, your
left, your right.
Sound off, one, two.
Sound off, three, four.
Oh, I was born in--
I see.
Petey.
PETEY: Go to your left,
your right, your left.
Go to your left--
(CHUCKLES) Well,
that explains it.
I did have a young lady but,
uh, she wasn't your daughter.
She was that girl, Sheriff.
I-- I know she had a
red backpack dealy.
Petey, Petey, Petey.
What are we going
to do with you?
Right?
We leave you here alone,
and what you start doing?
Exciting folks
with your visions.
Well, don't you
remember, Sheriff?
She wore the same
hiking boots that she
wore in the-- in the picture.
Petey, every kid that
passes through here
wears the same wardrobe, right?
I mean, boots, shorts,
backpack, windbreaker.
It's basically today's
uniform of the road.
All right?
So the little girl you saw me
with was a girl named Nikki.
Nikki?
Now while she did look like
the girl in this photograph,
well, she wasn't.
That kind of hurt.
I'm sorry, Petey.
Look, why don't you
go back there and take
care your business, and
I'll attend to these--
Well, Sheriff, you know,
maybe you're right--
Petey, just go
back in the kitchen,
and I'll take care of these--
My brain got chopped.
I understand.
OK?
Just--
I'm gonna go back and
get the cheese sandwiches.
Yeah, fine.
Fine.
I'm-- I'm sorry, folks.
Are you sure, Sheriff?
Could you be mistaken?
Mr. Clarke, I would really
know a face like that.
Now I can't forget.
Mr. Holbrook was so sure.
PETEY: Sound off, one, two.
Poor old Petey.
Can't rely on what
Petey has to say.
I mean, every town has one, and
Petey just happens to be ours.
You know, Mrs. Clarke,
I'm going to help you.
I'm going to issue an all-points
bulletin for among my deputies.
Now I do have her picture,
description, your name
and number on the back.
And if she's anywhere-- and I
mean anywhere-- in this county,
we're gonna find her.
I'll tell you what.
I'm also going to give
you the name and number
of a sheriff, Ken Richards.
Now, he's over in Kern County.
That's the next county over.
I have a feeling that
she might be there.
I'll tell you why.
Because your husband did say she
likes the sites, doesn't she?
And Nathan City's there, right?
So if she's there, I
think you'll find her.
Thank you so much.
And God bless you,
Sheriff Coale.
Well, good luck to you.
PETEY: [singing]
Where is he?
Who?
Doesn't he have
responsibilities around here,
or is he spending all of his
time with that new chicken?
Well, how should I know?
I only work here.
What's all the commotion here?
I'd like to know
why Sheriff Coale is
taking charge of Gillian,
of that new internee.
I demand the prison be
remanded back into my custody
according to the
rules and regulations.
I'm aware of our procedures.
According to the
rules and regulations,
I have complete authority
over all the girls
entering this facility.
That's true.
Then what right
does Sheriff Coale
have to remove a girl from
camp for his own purposes
without my consultation
or consent?
I'll look into it.
If I were a man, I wouldn't
have to put up with this.
But because I'm a woman, I have
to put up with this damn lot
of double dealings.
It's because I'm
a woman, isn't it?
I said I'd look into it.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
When Sheriff Coale wasn't
available to bring back
girls, the job fell
to the big Indian named Jud.
Jud had a slightly more direct
approach than the sheriff.
MAN: Hold that one.
Hold that.
Yeah.
Perfect.
Hold that.
WOMAN: Wait.
Once from the back.
MAN: Yeah, perfect.
Hey, turn around.
OK, let's see some
good ones now.
Yeah, perfect.
Yeah, all right.
All right, yeah.
Hold that.
Hold that.
JUD: [calling out menacingly]
What the hell?
WOMAN: Come on.
Please don't start anything.
MAN: Relax, man.
Hold on!
Hold on, man.
I want to handle it.
WOMAN: Come on.
Please.
Hey.
The fuck's your problem?
I saw your girlfriend
French kissing
a donkey on the reservation.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
You're gonna be
sorry you did that.
Amy, get out of here!
OK.
Come on, get up!
Son of a bitch.
Open the fucking door.
Open it!
Open it!
The fucking door!
Open the fucking door!
No!
[humming]
[car horn honking]
Son of a bitch!
[gunshot]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Jud was
every bit as good as
Sheriff Coale in terms
of bringing back new product.
There was just one minor detail.
He sometimes forgot to
bring them back alive.
[explosion]
I want you to show
her who's boss.
Yeah, when she gets in here,
I'm gonna break her in two.
[laughs]
Well, here she comes now.
Take your time.
Enjoy yourself.
Make if fun.
It's just a good
thing she showed up.
This is gonna be
another short one.
Punish her.
Make her sorry
she ever was born.
OK.
Here we go now.
I want you to give
us a good fight.
The warden says
he'll release you.
Don't worry.
I'll kill her to
get out of here.
[bell rings]
[bell rings]
Come on!
Kill her!
Little bitch!
Now.
Come on!
Come on.
Bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!
Yes!
Yes!
[inaudible].
[inaudible].
SCRUGGS: Don't you think
this has gone far enough?
No, I don't.
Ooh!
[bell rings]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): So it was
a wrestling match to the death.
[bell rings]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
This was too much.
But I knew if I got up and did
something or said something,
I might be shot on the spot.
[inaudible].
Show's over.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): But I
couldn't just sit back anymore.
I couldn't not respond to
the pain of those around me,
like I didn't respond
to my fellow cops
when Ron got shot during
that terrible arms bust.
When we got back to our
cell, Sharon was real upset.
I tried to comfort her,
but it was to no avail.
The wrestling match had also
heated up the bloodlust of some
of the prison personnel.
You two.
Get out.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Sharon and I
were about to become
personally acquainted with Jud.
Jud and one of the guards
took us on a double date.
Nobody owes me shit.
And I don't owe anybody.
My mom died when I was 11.
Hey, I'm sorry, man.
I heard my dad died in
a knifing in some bar
down in Arizona.
Hey, at least my
folks are alive.
I'm gonna go see
them next month.
They think I work in an
office somewhere down in LA.
Little do they know.
Bang!
[laughing]
Hey.
How come we always got to do
the warden's dirty work for him?
All work and no play
makes Jud dull boy.
Hey, you all having a good
time back there? [laughter]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I couldn't let this happen.
I had to fight back, no
matter what the cost.
You can't bring it here.
You have no right!
I don't need a reason.
What's right or wrong
doesn't mean shit to me.
We're gonna have a little
party, just the four of us.
Now get back on the bed.
Sheriff Coale is going
to hear about this.
I don't think I
like your attitude.
[grunts] You bitch!
She's out.
Leave her.
Let's take care of
this other bitch first.
If the warden finds
out, he'll be pissed.
And if the sheriff finds out--
Don't worry about the sheriff.
I could take care of him.
The warden owes me.
[muffled screaming]
Anyhow, we'll be very gentle.
You won't say a word
to anybody, right?
That wasn't very smart.
You shouldn't have done that.
If you move, you die.
Do you understand?
Please.
Please.
Stop.
I'm about to be married.
Good.
I'll be glad to
tell your husband
what you were like in bed.
Please don't.
Please don't!
Please.
Very nice.
I'm going to really enjoy this.
[sobbing, screaming]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): That was it.
Sharon was the most innocent
girl you could imagine.
I vowed there and
then that I would not
let this unspeakable
horror go unpunished.
I vowed that Sharon and the
other prisoners would be free.
I started to think of a plan.
I knew a chain was only as
strong as its weakest link.
What keeps you here?
What are you doing here?
What do you mean?
Well, it's obvious that
we're all prisoners here.
I don't mean in
the general sense.
We're gonna die here, aren't we?
Why are they pretending?
What is going on?
You know, there's-- there's
no keeping anything from you,
is there?
You know, Gillian, you
are smarter than the rest.
You're smarter and--
I don't know anymore.
I know at one time it was
the money, but you know,
you can only make so much
of it and then-- then
it begins to lose its value.
When I think what we've
done, sometimes it just
makes me sick.
And these-- these
horrible nightmares.
We're in it too deep now.
I just don't think we can stop.
But you seemed so
different from the rest.
As if you didn't belong.
Why don't we get away from here?
Away from this living nightmare!
It's not that easy.
Oh, maybe a year ago
might have worked.
But I'm in too deep now.
And I have too much-- too
much blood on these hands.
I could help you.
We could run away together.
Gillian, I--
I need to talk to you, Coale.
This is insanity.
Why Gillian?
Why the hell don't you
choose somebody else?
Stop your bellyaching!
There'll be others.
This girl ain't no better
than the rest of them.
Besides I've already
sold her to Doc Bass
and that's the end of it.
What the hell's the matter?
You in love with this
girl or something?
What in the hell have
we gotten ourselves into?
Now, this has got to stop.
Oh, slow down.
No, it has to.
Damn you.
Damn you!
In my entire life, I
never met me a prime cut.
They's all dead meat!
Look, Coale, you can't let
yourself get emotionally
involved, and the sooner you get
that through your head, Sheriff
Coale, the better
it'll be for everybody.
Oh.
Well, now I'm going to tell
you what I'm going to do.
I'm going to take Gillian
and Sharon out of here.
Now you can have my
share of the money
because I don't give a damn.
I just want out!
[door slams]
I want you girls
to get in the car
that's parked out in the back.
Well, come on.
Let's go.
Move, move!
Let's go!
Well, we have to wait
for Sheriff Coale.
Oh, why?
I'm fine!
He's got the key!
Sorry, ladies.
There's been a change of plans.
Well, how long are
we gonna be in here?
Not long.
[sobbing]
Stop it.
Stop it!
Get a hold of yourself!
We have got to figure out a
way out of here, or we're dead.
When they come back again,
they're gonna kill us!
Do you understand that?
[unintelligible sobbing]
Just get a hold of yourself.
We need your help.
I got this from
one of the girls.
Here's my plan.
Huh?
Holy shit.
You stupid boob!
You let a cop in here.
Ms. Pusker, Gillian
Kaites is a cop.
Kill her.
Kill her now!
Her?
Make a fool of me?
Ha!
It would be my pleasure.
Take Big Eddie with you.
You, uh, you need some help?
I can handle it.
I don't see her.
[inaudible]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): Once
I was out, I rallied the girls.
We don't have much time.
Donna, here's some gasoline.
When you get to the east
wing, pour it on the floor
and light it.
You get in trouble, use this.
Let me get Pusker.
I'll say hello for you.
Sharon, wait here for
me until I get back.
Let's move it!
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
We bribed some of the guards
to disappear.
Hey, what are you doing here?
I was hoping I could persuade
you to be on the letter board.
Hey, what's going on?
What Maxwell wants
doing, Kaites's dead.
And I want to make
sure she's real dead.
You never needed
artillery before.
When did you ever need a gun?
PUSKER: Gillian knows all
that damn karate shit.
She attacked Big Eddie,
and I want to make sure she
gets what's coming to her.
SCRUGGS: Yeah, but you
took Big Eddie with you.
Two against one?
PUSKER: I'm gonna put
these shells into her.
That'll stop her.
SCRUGGS: What if
she gets by you?
[background chatter]
Good night, guys.
[screaming]
Freeze!
[gunfire]
Gillian, get us out of here!
[women clamoring]
Going somewhere?
Give me the gun.
Don't be foolish.
Now, give me the gun!
[gunshot]
Fuck!
[explosion]
[women clamoring]
Hey, let me out!
That you, Kaites?
Come on in and get Coale.
I'm sick of this bellyaching.
I'm unarmed, and I swear
on my baby's grave.
[gunfire]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I could see that poor Sheriff
Coale was beyond help.
It's over!
[women clamoring]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): All the girls
ran as fast as they could.
Nobody looked back.
As for the place, I suppose
the authorities found it.
It didn't really concern me now.
[doorbell]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): We were
so happy to put it
all behind us that we
felt like little children.
Mom?
It's OK, Mom.
[crying]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I never
realized how much I
took freedom for granted
until it was taken away.
While I was enjoying
myself at the party,
I couldn't help but
feel lucky for having
survived the whole ordeal.
I thought of Vicky, and all
those other poor women who
died in that horrible prison.
They would never be
able to enjoy life,
to taste the
sweetness of freedom.
I was grateful at least that
I was able to help Sharon.
This wonderful little girl
had made me care once again
about myself and other people.
Now, listen everyone.
We all know we're
here to pay tribute
to two wonderful people--
my lovely daughter, Sharon,
and my future son-in-law, Gary.
My friends, I'd like to make
a toast to the happy couple.
To Sharon and Gary--
may your lives be filled
with nothing but happiness.
I'm so happy for you.
What are you going to do now?
Well, I'm going to put
the pieces back together.
And we're going to
start a new life.
I'm gonna work for a
victims' rights organization.
That's great.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I would never
again lay down in submission.
I had learned that there
are times when we all
must fight for what is ours.
Nobody I knew would ever
have to suffer again.
Not if I could help it.
[gunfire]
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "LUST FOR
FREEDOM"]
[music playing]
The story that I
have to tell is about freedom.
But it became a
nightmare because of what
we had to go through to win it.
It was a nightmare, because
I took my freedom for granted
until suddenly one
day it was gone.
This is a story about the terror
and torture that I and others
endured passively,
like scared rabbits,
until we finally gained
our lust for freedom.
My name is Gillian Kaites.
It used to be Undercover
Detective Gillian Kaites.
I was one of the
best on the force.
Three mayor's citations for
dangerous undercover work.
But I made one mistake-- I
fell in love with my partner.
Ron Peterson had-- believe
it or not-- become my fiance.
He had been working side by
side infiltrating a small arms
smuggling connection.
Finally, months of work
were coming to a climax.
I found out that a huge
shipment had just arrived,
so Ron was pretending to
be an arms buyer with ties
to certain terrorist groups.
And I was posing as
a lowlife go-between.
Those drinking bums
in the parking lot
were really our
undercover backup.
Parker, who always came through
in a pinch, and Saunders,
a very green rookie.
Ron was going to
meet with the head
man of the whole operation,
a guy named Jonathan Trauma,
or JT for short.
I had worked hard and long
getting him to trust me.
I hated JT.
Hi, Sunny.
JT, good to see you.
Hi.
This is, uh, Ron, the guy
I was telling you about.
So what?
I just hope we can
do business together.
My end of the deal is in place.
You mind if we search you?
No, go ahead.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Ron and I had
been partners for two years.
We were going to get
married in three days.
We'd put the wedding
off four times,
but we both agreed that
after this big job,
we deserved some time together.
Everything was going
according to plan.
Two more minutes and
it would all be over.
But I didn't count
on that rookie
Saunders jumping the gun.
Stop!
Police!
Hold it right there!
[grunting]
Don't get in middle of this.
I'm getting a
promotion for this.
[phone rings]
Oh, shit.
That must be my old lady.
Just-- just cool it.
I'll get rid of her.
Hello?
Yeah, Whitey.
What's up?
Yeah, uh-huh.
What?
When?
Motherfucker!
Freeze!
[gunshots]
[off-hook tone]
Ron?
Ron!
[screams]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Thanks to that dumb rookie,
my fiance was dead.
But at least JT didn't get away.
There he is!
Get him!
What about this guy?
Go check on Ron and Gillian.
I'll take care of this bastard.
[gunshots]
[off-hook tone]
Ron?
(CRYING) No!
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Hell was
breaking loose all around
me, but I didn't hear it.
I'll get you!
Forgot your key, butthead?
[screaming]
[glass shattering]
[thud]
There's enough here
to blow up ten cities.
Ron!
Gillian!
Get in here!
I found it.
Hey!
What do you think you're doing?
You scum!
Pull a gun on me?
I'll show you.
Bye, scumbag.
[door creaks]
PARKER: Ron!
Gillian!
Get in here.
I need cover!
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I should have answered him,
but I couldn't.
GOON: You finks are all alike!
You're all stupid assholes!
[maniacal laughter]
Well, then I've got a
surprise for you, scum.
See you in Hell!
GOON: Huh?
Holy--
[explosion, screaming]
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "LUST FOR
FREEDOM"]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): Cops
were dying all over the place,
and all I could do
was act like a woman.
I knew my days as
a cop were over.
I had to get away.
I had no idea where I was
going, and I didn't care.
There was nothing for
me in this city anymore.
Without Ron, my life
was meaningless.
[phone ringing]
GILLIAN (ON PHONE): Hello?
Hello, Gillian?
This is Captain Franklin.
No, she's not here.
When do you expect her?
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I drove away.
I drove aimlessly for days.
I drove until it
got to the point
where all the
roads looked alike,
and it didn't matter
which direction I went in.
I don't really know why
I stopped by the lake.
Maybe I was just
drawn by its beauty.
I hadn't been in a place
like this for years.
It was soothing.
Everything was so quiet.
I almost felt
peaceful, and peace
was exactly what I needed now.
Peace, and the time to
think things through.
Little did I know
what was happening
just a few hundred feet away.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
When I got back to
the car, I could
sense that something was wrong.
But that was only the beginning.
Oh, God, please!
Please!
Please stop!
Please stop the car!
Stop the car!
Please!
I'm stuck!
Please!
Please.
You've got to help me.
I escaped from the
work farm last night.
My God!
I was up at the house.
I know what you must be
thinking, but I'm no criminal!
I was just passing through
like you, and like the others.
It's been a nightmare!
We gotta get past the line.
They won't go beyond
the county line.
Wait a minute.
What is going on?
They'll kill me
if they catch me.
Can't you drive faster?
[car horn honking]
Keep going.
The black van!
Don't you understand?
They'll kill you!
[car horn honking]
Whatever you do, don't stop!
Keep going!
[sirens approaching]
What are you doing?
Don't stop!
Don't!
[screaming]
Good afternoon, ma'am.
You letting her go?
No, we're not really.
There's hardly
anything between here
and 30 miles in any direction.
I suppose the girl told you
she escaped from the work farm?
Wearing an evening dress?
That is kind of
silly, isn't it?
Well, I guess the
little girl just
thought she'd be better off--
in something pretty, that is.
[engine revving]
Is anything going
to happen to her?
No, no.
These things happen
every once in a while.
Nothing to be alarmed about.
Look, uh, may I have a look-see
at your driver's license,
please?
Would you remove it from
your wallet, please?
You're a long ways
from home, Miss Kaites.
Hardly anyone comes out here
anymore, what with the freeway
passing us by a long shot.
OK, it's in order.
I know you're probably
in a hurry to get back,
but I was wondering if you
could follow me to the office.
Why?
Well, we have to
take a statement
regarding this incident.
Now, it's only a
mile down the road.
It won't take very long.
All right.
OK, good.
Oh.
I'll get you back on the road
in two shakes of a lamb's tail,
how's that?
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
[gunshot, screaming]
Open your eyes, bitch.
I want you to see this coming.
[gunshot]
[chuckles]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
The last person
I wanted to be
around now was a cop,
but I knew where
he was coming from.
He needed my
statement, and I knew
too well how difficult it is
when witnesses don't cooperate.
Besides, I really had
nothing better to do anyway.
Turned out I was in a place
called Georgia County.
I didn't know
exactly where it was,
but it sure wasn't in Georgia.
The best I could figure, it
was somewhere near the border
of California and Mexico.
[dog barking]
Well, Miss Kaites, this is our
women's correctional facility.
Now my office is over this way.
Go ahead.
Take your hands off
me, you rat eater!
I'm gonna teach you to fight.
Mind your Ps and Qs.
Sheriff called.
Vicky's been a naughty girl.
I'm taking her to detention
room for corrective training.
She be staying with us?
No!
She staying with us?
Why don't you just get
a move on, Ms. Pusker?
Go on.
VICKY: Let go of me!
You know, I'm afraid
Ms. Pusker's a little--
if you know what I mean.
But until we can find
someone to replace her,
I guess she'll be head
matron of this facility.
I'll tell you what.
Walk this way, please.
All right.
Where were you headed?
Away.
No place in particular.
Got a family expecting you?
No.
Pretty girl like you must
have lot of friends, then?
No, not really.
You know, I really
admire a person like you,
independent as yourself.
Ah, here's your
drink, Miss Kaites.
You really must be thirsty.
And I'll go look for that form.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Sheriff Coale was OK.
The place seemed normal enough.
But something inside
me caught my police
experience, or just
women's intuition,
told me things weren't right.
You seem like such a nice girl.
Want me to be so easy?
Now.
When you escaped,
where were you headed?
I was going home,
where I belong.
Don't lie.
You were headed east on Highway
58 when you were captured.
There's nothing on that
road for 200 miles.
I was gonna hitch
a ride, that's all.
Don't lie to me, bitch!
Now you gonna tell me
where you were going.
You were going to
have your boyfriend
pick you up down the highway.
Weren't you?
What can I say to convince you?
Just the truth, bitch.
That's all.
Now, who helped you escape?
I planned this alone.
Look.
We've already captured the
other girl who escaped with you.
You tell us who
else is involved,
your punishment will be lighter.
Nobody else was involved.
Did Sharon help you?
No.
Check her for contraband.
[scream]
Is there something
wrong, Miss Kaites?
[moan]
[thud]
[humming]
More dead meat.
Can you, uh, file
her belongings
in the county police?
Just a lot a worthless
junk in a purse.
Typical women stuff.
Oh yes, uh, let's charge Miss
Kaites with illegal possession
of drugs, all right?
Well, what kind?
Well, check in the
safe and see what
we got on stock, all right?
(LAUGHING) Oh.
In the meantime, I'll
take her over to the house
and get some work done on her.
And will you please get the
paperwork done on Miss Kaites
and get her car ready
for transport to Mexico?
Can you do that?
-Yeah.
I don't see much of you
around here anymore, Karen.
I've been busy, Ms. Pusker.
Too busy to see old friends?
Well, I've got my duty.
(LAUGHING) Yes.
The shitters.
Where you conveniently put this.
Honest.
I found it, Ms. Pusker.
Honest, my ass.
Now I want to know who's
bringing it in, how much,
and where you're hiding it.
I don't know.
I found it.
[gun cocks]
--[laughter] You didn't
find it in no toilet.
You're probably a
little goob trying
to muscle in on my action.
Now I want to know
who's bringing it in.
It's not true.
There's no one.
[moaning, humming]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I was in a room somewhere.
I couldn't get
myself to wake up.
I was so tired.
All I knew was that
I was terrified.
Was I dreaming some
kind of nightmare?
[chuckles]
[woman sobbing]
You know, Karen, everything
that Big Eddie touches
seems to grow and turn green.
Everything you touch
seems to turn to shit!
Don't you agree?
I'm not hearing you, Karen.
Yes, Ms. Pusker.
There's something
deceptive about a rose.
And looks so beautiful
and smells so sweet.
Appears so soft and safe.
And yet.
[yelp]
Now, who brought it in?
My boyfriend.
And you distribute how much?
Not much.
Very little.
From now on, you
bring it to me.
All of it.
You tell your boyfriend
to keep it coming,
and that you're mine
while you're in here.
Mine!
Do I make myself
perfectly clear?
All mine!
[phone ringing]
Where's Miss Kaites's car?
Garage.
Being fitted for
shipment to Mexico.
Get the paperwork finished?
Almost.
All right.
Afterwards I would like you to
prepare a file on this case,
would you?
I'm bogged down in paperwork!
Why are we always
pushing papers?
Because this is a business.
And because we have to have
information for our record.
You know, like profits and
losses, that sort of thing?
Blowing away that
little girl's brains--
was that profit or loss?
You'll have to ask
Maxwell that question.
That's his department.
You know something, Scruggs?
SCRUGGS: What?
Sometimes your worry me.
Why's that?
Well, sometimes I think
you've got a conscience.
Is that good or bad?
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
When I came to,
I was sopping wet and nauseous.
I could tell a lot
of time had gone by,
and I was in some
kind of prison cell.
Why was I here and
what had happened?
What was going on?
Obey me.
You're under my care now.
Do you understand?
Don't understand?
You will.
Hey!
Somebody in there?
Who's there?
It's me, Vicky.
What are you in for?
Ain't much of a talker, are you?
Ain't nobody stopped
me once I got started.
Once my grandma tried to.
Beat the shit out of her.
Not even Ms. Pusker.
She'll get hers.
Hey!
What's up in there?
What's going on?
Gloria?
Are you in there already
with Randy making out?
Ms. Pusker catches you, she'll
make you do it in front of her.
That bitch, Ms. Pusker.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I was going
to demand some answers
from the sheriff,
but I didn't get the chance.
Move it!
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I guess I was
still too dazed to fight back.
Fixed you up for a date.
Bet you'll like him.
Mind your manners.
You may go, Ms. Pusker.
Come in, Miss Kaites.
Sit down, please.
My name is Maxwell, and I'm the
warden at this here facility.
May I make a phone call?
No, I'm afraid that won't be
possible at this time, Miss
Kaites.
You've already had three
long-distance calls.
I think that's plenty for now.
I never made a call, let
alone a long-distance one!
Well, I beg to differ.
You just don't remember
making them calls.
This is getting us nowhere.
As I understand
it, Miss Kaites,
judging from this report,
you've been higher than a kite
ever since you came here.
That's a lie!
I beg to differ.
A search of your
vehicle uncovered
a wide range of illegal
drugs in your possession.
Why are you feeding me
this load of bullshit?
Now, wild talk like that
ain't going to get you nowhere,
Miss Kaites.
The judge, he decided already to
go light on you, thinking maybe
you're just a little misguided.
And in light of that
fact, he gave you
an indeterminate
sentence, which means
that you'll be out
of here in no time
if you just behave yourself.
I could be here forever!
Well, now, forever's
a long time.
I want to see an attorney.
I have constitutional rights!
And we have bent over backwards
to comply with your demands.
But frankly, Miss Kaites,
I don't give a damn
about your
constitutional rights,
as you see it to make a
mockery of our judicial system.
Ms. Pusker!
Now, if you just
behave yourself,
Miss Kaites, life can be very
easy for you around here.
Is there a possibility
that I could see the judge?
You're looking at him.
I told you she was no good.
Let's go.
Gillian?
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): All
I could do was stare at him.
Sheriff Coale, will you tell
one of your deputies to release
Vicky from the cooler?
Yeah, sure.
Let's go.
Take a shower, put
these on, and put
your street clothes over here.
Move it!
Mm-mmm.
[wolf whistle]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I was in shock.
I just couldn't get
my brain to work.
From now on, you're placed
into the general population.
Do as you're told, and
there'll be no trouble.
Don't personally do this to
you lovely, stupid [inaudible].
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Ms. Pusker
was straight out of some
low-budget prison movie.
But this wasn't a movie.
This was real.
Stop.
This one's yours.
Starting tomorrow
you get work detail.
Make your bed.
I'll be back later
to check on it.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
The bed was already made,
but I wasn't in a
state of mind to argue
with this sadistic maniac, so I
started to make the bed again.
[voice on pa system]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Little did I
know what was about to happen.
Get away from my bed!
You're dead!
Dead meat!
Out of the way.
Get off!
[inmates clamoring]
Think you're pretty cute with
that karate shit, don't you?
SHERIFF COALE:
Excuse me, please.
All right, excuse me.
What the hell is going on here?
What is this, Ms. Pusker?
Just a little misunderstanding.
Nothing I can't handle.
Fucking shit was taking my bed.
Nobody takes my bed.
When I come back,
I always come back.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
I wasn't told.
All right, girls.
The show's over.
Everybody out, ladies.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
They had screwed up my mind
so that I couldn't think.
Thanks to my police training,
they hadn't screwed up my body.
Yet.
You're slipping.
I didn't know she
used that stuff.
I'll get her next time.
There won't be a next time.
Not like that.
What do you mean?
Heard of a game
called Kick the Can?
Yeah.
Played it when I was a kid.
So what?
You're gonna play it
again, only this time
it's gonna be my version.
My game's called Kick the Bag.
You're gonna enjoy it.
Is there anything
I can do to help?
No, Holly, everything's
under control.
Nosy, aren't you?
No, Ms. Pusker.
That can be dangerous.
You're hurting me!
Do you understand?
Yes, ma'am.
Please let me go.
VICKY: Gillian!
Who's there?
Me, slut.
I got a score to
settle with you.
Look, I don't have
any beef with you.
It's over.
You've got your bed back.
You put me down.
You embarrassed me in there.
Nobody does that to me.
[screaming]
Now!
Get her!
The slut's turned on.
[moaning, grunting]
SCRUGGS: What's
going on in there?
VICKY: Scum bucket!
What the hell
happened here, Scruggs?
She was bagged
and kicked around.
Well, did you
recognize any of them?
No, sir.
It was too dark.
Another
misunderstanding, Pusker?
I suppose you know
nothing about this.
Not a thing.
Should I investigate, sir?
What?
No one knows
anything about this.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): I
hated Sheriff Coale for getting
me into this, but
there was something
about him that seemed different
from the rest of these animals.
If I could just
get through to him.
When I got out of the infirmary,
I lay in a cell, recovering.
For five years I had been a cop
putting criminals behind bars,
and now I was
behind bars myself.
Caged alongside the same
petty trash and scum
that I had helped put away.
I knew a lot of
brutality and perversion
was going on in those
cells, but I didn't care.
I had my own problems.
JACKIE: Watch my kids grow up.
Get old with my husband.
LYNN: Hey, that
sounds really nice.
Wishful thinking, huh?
No.
You can have all that.
We'll get out of here.
Don't worry.
Yeah.
You know, this may
sound crazy to you,
and I've never even talked
about it with anyone here.
What about?
Well, we've been real
close these last few months.
I can't get you out of my mind.
Every time I dream,
I see your face.
I'm lonely, Lynn.
I never had a woman
touch me like that.
Make love to me, Lynn.
Please?
All right.
That'll be your lousy
hundred bucks, there!
Please stop.
I'm doing the best I can.
Nobody's buying.
Or maybe you just
don't try hard enough.
I can't force the girls to buy!
Big Eddie's watching
every move I make!
Maybe I'll take out the rest
of this week's money in trade.
What do you mean?
Take off your clothes.
That's what I mean.
No!
What did you say?
I didn't hear you.
Nothing.
I didn't say nothing.
That's more like it. [cackling]
[moaning]
[music playing]
[heavy breathing]
[laughing]
What are you going
to do with me?
I'll teach you a lesson
you'll never forget.
Gonna wish you never escaped.
Ha!
Please help.
Let me go!
Let me go.
Nobody escapes from here.
Nobody!
[whipping, screaming, laughing]
You wanna see my John Henry?
I'll show you my John Henry.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): And why
should I care about the
screams of these women?
It's true that in one
sense they were my sisters,
but they were hardened
criminals, weren't they?
Besides, there were
still screams of my own
that I couldn't forget.
[sobbing]
MAXWELL: Doc, it's mighty
good of you to come.
I sure hope it's worth
it in all this heat.
Oh, I'm sure you'll be pleased.
We will see.
Take a deep breath.
Open wide.
What are you in for?
I don't really know.
They said I had drugs in my car.
Same here.
I think most of the girls
aren't supposed to be here.
What do you mean?
Well, I think there's
something funny going on.
I mean, look around.
None of these girls seem
to be hardened criminals.
They're not
prostitutes or robbers.
They're nice girls.
But I don't know.
I'm afraid.
I'm scheduled to be
released next week.
What are you afraid of?
Some of the girls, they
only stay a short time.
There are never
any visitors here.
No phone calls.
I mean, doesn't that
seem strange to you?
Yeah.
Pyorrhea.
P-I-A--
Cody, if you're
going to work for me,
you're going to have
to learn how to spell.
Oh, I will, Doc.
I will.
I promise.
I give her five.
Next.
CODY: Bring in
the next prisoner.
That ain't necessary, Doc.
I got a good heart.
It's required.
Here, then.
Let me help you.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Didn't I tell you, Doc?
Ain't nothing wrong
with my heart.
Let me be the judge of that.
Aw, Doc, that was
a good cigarette.
Open your mouth.
Say ahh.
Ahh.
Don't you believe in
brushing your teeth?
Only when I'm going to
kiss a good-looking male,
and there ain't none
of those around here.
Hmm.
Hmm.
I ain't no piece of
meat to be picked at!
No need for that, Cody.
Just trying to protect
my employer here, Sheriff.
Now, calm down, Vicky.
I ain't gonna let that
son of a bitch touch me.
You apologize to
the Doc, Vicky!
I ain't going to apologize
to that flesh peddler.
Get her out of here!
Let me go!
DOCTOR: Help me up.
VICKY: Let me go!
Let me go.
Young people today.
No wonder we lost the war.
But Doc, you haven't
seen all the girls yet!
I've been knocked
down and insulted.
I'm hot and dirty.
I'm calling it a day.
But Doc, you
haven't seen Holly,
and I was saving her
especially for you.
Doctor Bass, this is Holly.
Well, how old are you, child?
17.
17.
Imagine that.
Where you from, child?
From Houston, Texas.
All the way from Texas.
Any family there?
No, I was an orphan.
Good.
I mean, I'm sorry.
We're gonna have to do
something about that.
But a quick
examination's in order.
Take a big gulp of
air and suck it in.
That's right, honey.
All the way.
Suck it in all the way.
That's right, all the way in.
That's it.
Suck it in all the way.
Doc, Doc, come out of it.
Come out of it.
[exhales] Sorry, Doctor.
I must have her, Cody.
The marvellous ones.
You know what to do.
Open, dear.
Open wide.
Say ahh.
Ahh.
[clears throat]
Doc, what's wrong?
Why you leaving?
The contest is over, Maxwell.
But what about Holly?
She didn't make it.
You must be crazy.
Look at her.
She's young and wholesome
and she's a beauty.
She may be in your eyes, but
in my client's eyes-- you know,
I'm dealing with a
different clientele now.
They notice things like
bad bite, crooked teeth,
ratty hair, rough complexion.
But you could fix all that.
Sure, but it takes money.
The state don't
pay me to fix teeth.
And I can't make
them girls brush.
I'm sorry.
She's very nice in
spite of these defects.
How much would you
give for her as is?
Well, considering she
needs a lot of work, I would
have to invest about, uh--
How much?
3,000.
3,000?
Why, she's worth at least five!
Doc Bass don't pay no top
dollar for damaged goods.
Bad bite, crooked teeth,
frayed hair, malnutrition.
Very good, Cody boy.
Very good.
Pay the man.
That's, uh, 3,000 in cash.
Doc Bass don't carry no cash.
Not in Georgia County.
Like, you never know who
you might run into out here.
I'm gonna take you away
from all this, child.
I'm gonna take you
to my home, where
we will put good
food in your stomach,
and good clothes on your back.
Pervert.
Well, you got 3,000.
That's good enough, isn't it?
Oh, she's worth
twice that much,
and that bastard will
sell her for that, too.
Well, maybe he just
wants her for himself.
Dirty old man.
Look, Coale, we got
to get rid of Vicky.
She has become a burden,
and we ain't in business
to carry no deficits.
Yeah.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Luckily, I didn't
get to see Doc Bass that day.
When I got back to my cell,
I found I had a roommate.
Are you all right?
Yeah.
My name's Gillian.
What's yours?
Sharon.
Why am I here?
Why can't I leave?
Why have I been here so long?
What were you charged With
Possession of illegal
drugs or something.
It's a frame.
I never saw that stuff
before in my life!
I just want to go home.
I know my parents are worried.
They'll never find me here.
Where are they?
Hollister, California.
They have a farm on
the outskirts of town.
You know, Mom and
Dad are pretty old.
And they had trouble
relating to me,
but they never wailed
on me or anything.
I just wish I could go home.
I'd never run away again.
We'll see what we
can do about that.
You'd better rest.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Even though I had ceased
to care about
myself, Sharon was so
innocent and helpless
that something within me
began to stir.
When I look back on
it now, I realize
that it was meeting Sharon
that sparked the first embers
of resistance in me.
Meanwhile, the goings on at
the prison were getting worse.
First, Maxwell got even
with Vicky for screwing
things up with Doc Bass.
I said I'd look into it.
In the meantime, I got a
girl I got to get rid of.
I've arranged a little
wrestling match tonight.
How does that sound?
Good.
Who is it?
Vicky.
Break her in half.
Show her who's the boss.
That stupid bitch.
I'd reckon I've raised some
feathers on her back today.
Well, she can take
out her frustrations
on the wrestling match tonight.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
And because Doc Bass
was getting greedy,
Maxwell had an idea
to eliminate the middleman.
Using the prisoners
as talent, he started
to make his own porno movies.
Of course, Maxwell's
idea of a porno movie
was sicker than anything
anybody could imagine.
Please, no more.
Henry, did you
finish with that tape?
No, I got more.
MAXWELL: Well, save
it for the new girl.
We got a special
order on this one.
HENRY: You want
the video camera?
MAXWELL: Is it connected?
HENRY: Ready to go.
You feeling pretty good, hon?
[giggling]
Please.
Please.
I didn't do nothing.
Don't make me do it!
Shut up, you
yellow-bellied hippie!
Do as I told you.
No, I won't.
Bullshit!
Do as I told you!
No, never!
I don't care what you do to me!
No, please don't.
You do it right, and
it'll be all over.
Now get your pantywaist
ass over there!
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
[gunshot]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Sheriff Coale, however,
was a mystery.
He didn't seem as bad as the
rest, but he did his part.
Hello, Charlie.
Weather's cleared up a bit.
Sheriff Coale, what's up?
Well, Charlie, we had another
accident at the prison,
and I, uh, I'd like you
do the paperwork on it.
Would you do that?
I'll do that.
Just, uh, just mark her
down as another Jane Doe,
would you do that?
I'll take care of it.
See you later.
[sirens]
Where were you
going, young lady?
Nowhere special.
Would you like
a ride into town?
Yeah, that'd be fine.
Why don't you hop in?
Tomorrow I want you
to get us a new girl,
and make sure she's pretty, too.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
Jud and the others
who ran the place
took special delight
in the pain of other people.
Pusker treated
people like animals.
Even though she had
used Vicky to get at me,
she had no loyalty to her.
This time she would use
Big Eddie to get Vicky.
Hey.
Big Eddie.
Yes, Ms. Pusker.
Ah, Warden Maxwell says there's
going to be wrestling match.
Yeah, who's the competition?
Me and you?
Nah, some girl the warden
wants to get rid of.
What's in it for me?
What do you want?
An evening alone with Sharon.
OK, you've got it.
But no rough stuff.
BIG EDDIE: Sure.
PUSKER: Here she comes now.
Vicky!
Move your ass over here!
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): And
Vicky fell right into her trap.
Yeah, what?
You stupid bitch.
You're standing on my garden.
What garden, fatso?
This garden.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
PUSKER: Come on!
Stand up, all right?
The warden's coming.
All right.
Any time, any place, I'll
break your chicken neck.
Listen, baby, I'll
stick those pants
up where the sun don't shine.
Any time!
Get back to work!
[shrieking, laughing]
Get me a beer, will you?
Ah, fuck!
Oh, man!
Oh, fuck.
That's funny.
That's funny.
Jesus.
[shrieking, laughing]
[car horn honking]
[shrieking, laughing]
Hey, you goddamn asshole!
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Sheriff Coale
was about to be confronted
with a situation
that he had secretly known
for a long time would happen.
He had always tried not
to think about it, though.
But it was about to hit
him right between the eyes.
Sheriff!
Sheriff!
My name is Warren Clarke.
I'm glad to see you.
I'm Sheriff Coale,
what can I do for you?
I understand you
found my daughter.
Your daughter?
My daughter, Sharon.
Oh, Sharon Clarke.
Who told you I found her?
Mr. Holbrook.
Mr--
To your left, your
right, your left.
Go to your left, your
left, your right.
Sound off, one, two.
Sound off, three, four.
Oh, I was born in--
I see.
Petey.
PETEY: Go to your left,
your right, your left.
Go to your left--
(CHUCKLES) Well,
that explains it.
I did have a young lady but,
uh, she wasn't your daughter.
She was that girl, Sheriff.
I-- I know she had a
red backpack dealy.
Petey, Petey, Petey.
What are we going
to do with you?
Right?
We leave you here alone,
and what you start doing?
Exciting folks
with your visions.
Well, don't you
remember, Sheriff?
She wore the same
hiking boots that she
wore in the-- in the picture.
Petey, every kid that
passes through here
wears the same wardrobe, right?
I mean, boots, shorts,
backpack, windbreaker.
It's basically today's
uniform of the road.
All right?
So the little girl you saw me
with was a girl named Nikki.
Nikki?
Now while she did look like
the girl in this photograph,
well, she wasn't.
That kind of hurt.
I'm sorry, Petey.
Look, why don't you
go back there and take
care your business, and
I'll attend to these--
Well, Sheriff, you know,
maybe you're right--
Petey, just go
back in the kitchen,
and I'll take care of these--
My brain got chopped.
I understand.
OK?
Just--
I'm gonna go back and
get the cheese sandwiches.
Yeah, fine.
Fine.
I'm-- I'm sorry, folks.
Are you sure, Sheriff?
Could you be mistaken?
Mr. Clarke, I would really
know a face like that.
Now I can't forget.
Mr. Holbrook was so sure.
PETEY: Sound off, one, two.
Poor old Petey.
Can't rely on what
Petey has to say.
I mean, every town has one, and
Petey just happens to be ours.
You know, Mrs. Clarke,
I'm going to help you.
I'm going to issue an all-points
bulletin for among my deputies.
Now I do have her picture,
description, your name
and number on the back.
And if she's anywhere-- and I
mean anywhere-- in this county,
we're gonna find her.
I'll tell you what.
I'm also going to give
you the name and number
of a sheriff, Ken Richards.
Now, he's over in Kern County.
That's the next county over.
I have a feeling that
she might be there.
I'll tell you why.
Because your husband did say she
likes the sites, doesn't she?
And Nathan City's there, right?
So if she's there, I
think you'll find her.
Thank you so much.
And God bless you,
Sheriff Coale.
Well, good luck to you.
PETEY: [singing]
Where is he?
Who?
Doesn't he have
responsibilities around here,
or is he spending all of his
time with that new chicken?
Well, how should I know?
I only work here.
What's all the commotion here?
I'd like to know
why Sheriff Coale is
taking charge of Gillian,
of that new internee.
I demand the prison be
remanded back into my custody
according to the
rules and regulations.
I'm aware of our procedures.
According to the
rules and regulations,
I have complete authority
over all the girls
entering this facility.
That's true.
Then what right
does Sheriff Coale
have to remove a girl from
camp for his own purposes
without my consultation
or consent?
I'll look into it.
If I were a man, I wouldn't
have to put up with this.
But because I'm a woman, I have
to put up with this damn lot
of double dealings.
It's because I'm
a woman, isn't it?
I said I'd look into it.
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
When Sheriff Coale wasn't
available to bring back
girls, the job fell
to the big Indian named Jud.
Jud had a slightly more direct
approach than the sheriff.
MAN: Hold that one.
Hold that.
Yeah.
Perfect.
Hold that.
WOMAN: Wait.
Once from the back.
MAN: Yeah, perfect.
Hey, turn around.
OK, let's see some
good ones now.
Yeah, perfect.
Yeah, all right.
All right, yeah.
Hold that.
Hold that.
JUD: [calling out menacingly]
What the hell?
WOMAN: Come on.
Please don't start anything.
MAN: Relax, man.
Hold on!
Hold on, man.
I want to handle it.
WOMAN: Come on.
Please.
Hey.
The fuck's your problem?
I saw your girlfriend
French kissing
a donkey on the reservation.
[MUSIC GRIM REAPER, "ROCK YOU TO
HELL"]
You're gonna be
sorry you did that.
Amy, get out of here!
OK.
Come on, get up!
Son of a bitch.
Open the fucking door.
Open it!
Open it!
The fucking door!
Open the fucking door!
No!
[humming]
[car horn honking]
Son of a bitch!
[gunshot]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Jud was
every bit as good as
Sheriff Coale in terms
of bringing back new product.
There was just one minor detail.
He sometimes forgot to
bring them back alive.
[explosion]
I want you to show
her who's boss.
Yeah, when she gets in here,
I'm gonna break her in two.
[laughs]
Well, here she comes now.
Take your time.
Enjoy yourself.
Make if fun.
It's just a good
thing she showed up.
This is gonna be
another short one.
Punish her.
Make her sorry
she ever was born.
OK.
Here we go now.
I want you to give
us a good fight.
The warden says
he'll release you.
Don't worry.
I'll kill her to
get out of here.
[bell rings]
[bell rings]
Come on!
Kill her!
Little bitch!
Now.
Come on!
Come on.
Bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!
Yes!
Yes!
[inaudible].
[inaudible].
SCRUGGS: Don't you think
this has gone far enough?
No, I don't.
Ooh!
[bell rings]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): So it was
a wrestling match to the death.
[bell rings]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
This was too much.
But I knew if I got up and did
something or said something,
I might be shot on the spot.
[inaudible].
Show's over.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): But I
couldn't just sit back anymore.
I couldn't not respond to
the pain of those around me,
like I didn't respond
to my fellow cops
when Ron got shot during
that terrible arms bust.
When we got back to our
cell, Sharon was real upset.
I tried to comfort her,
but it was to no avail.
The wrestling match had also
heated up the bloodlust of some
of the prison personnel.
You two.
Get out.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): Sharon and I
were about to become
personally acquainted with Jud.
Jud and one of the guards
took us on a double date.
Nobody owes me shit.
And I don't owe anybody.
My mom died when I was 11.
Hey, I'm sorry, man.
I heard my dad died in
a knifing in some bar
down in Arizona.
Hey, at least my
folks are alive.
I'm gonna go see
them next month.
They think I work in an
office somewhere down in LA.
Little do they know.
Bang!
[laughing]
Hey.
How come we always got to do
the warden's dirty work for him?
All work and no play
makes Jud dull boy.
Hey, you all having a good
time back there? [laughter]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I couldn't let this happen.
I had to fight back, no
matter what the cost.
You can't bring it here.
You have no right!
I don't need a reason.
What's right or wrong
doesn't mean shit to me.
We're gonna have a little
party, just the four of us.
Now get back on the bed.
Sheriff Coale is going
to hear about this.
I don't think I
like your attitude.
[grunts] You bitch!
She's out.
Leave her.
Let's take care of
this other bitch first.
If the warden finds
out, he'll be pissed.
And if the sheriff finds out--
Don't worry about the sheriff.
I could take care of him.
The warden owes me.
[muffled screaming]
Anyhow, we'll be very gentle.
You won't say a word
to anybody, right?
That wasn't very smart.
You shouldn't have done that.
If you move, you die.
Do you understand?
Please.
Please.
Stop.
I'm about to be married.
Good.
I'll be glad to
tell your husband
what you were like in bed.
Please don't.
Please don't!
Please.
Very nice.
I'm going to really enjoy this.
[sobbing, screaming]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): That was it.
Sharon was the most innocent
girl you could imagine.
I vowed there and
then that I would not
let this unspeakable
horror go unpunished.
I vowed that Sharon and the
other prisoners would be free.
I started to think of a plan.
I knew a chain was only as
strong as its weakest link.
What keeps you here?
What are you doing here?
What do you mean?
Well, it's obvious that
we're all prisoners here.
I don't mean in
the general sense.
We're gonna die here, aren't we?
Why are they pretending?
What is going on?
You know, there's-- there's
no keeping anything from you,
is there?
You know, Gillian, you
are smarter than the rest.
You're smarter and--
I don't know anymore.
I know at one time it was
the money, but you know,
you can only make so much
of it and then-- then
it begins to lose its value.
When I think what we've
done, sometimes it just
makes me sick.
And these-- these
horrible nightmares.
We're in it too deep now.
I just don't think we can stop.
But you seemed so
different from the rest.
As if you didn't belong.
Why don't we get away from here?
Away from this living nightmare!
It's not that easy.
Oh, maybe a year ago
might have worked.
But I'm in too deep now.
And I have too much-- too
much blood on these hands.
I could help you.
We could run away together.
Gillian, I--
I need to talk to you, Coale.
This is insanity.
Why Gillian?
Why the hell don't you
choose somebody else?
Stop your bellyaching!
There'll be others.
This girl ain't no better
than the rest of them.
Besides I've already
sold her to Doc Bass
and that's the end of it.
What the hell's the matter?
You in love with this
girl or something?
What in the hell have
we gotten ourselves into?
Now, this has got to stop.
Oh, slow down.
No, it has to.
Damn you.
Damn you!
In my entire life, I
never met me a prime cut.
They's all dead meat!
Look, Coale, you can't let
yourself get emotionally
involved, and the sooner you get
that through your head, Sheriff
Coale, the better
it'll be for everybody.
Oh.
Well, now I'm going to tell
you what I'm going to do.
I'm going to take Gillian
and Sharon out of here.
Now you can have my
share of the money
because I don't give a damn.
I just want out!
[door slams]
I want you girls
to get in the car
that's parked out in the back.
Well, come on.
Let's go.
Move, move!
Let's go!
Well, we have to wait
for Sheriff Coale.
Oh, why?
I'm fine!
He's got the key!
Sorry, ladies.
There's been a change of plans.
Well, how long are
we gonna be in here?
Not long.
[sobbing]
Stop it.
Stop it!
Get a hold of yourself!
We have got to figure out a
way out of here, or we're dead.
When they come back again,
they're gonna kill us!
Do you understand that?
[unintelligible sobbing]
Just get a hold of yourself.
We need your help.
I got this from
one of the girls.
Here's my plan.
Huh?
Holy shit.
You stupid boob!
You let a cop in here.
Ms. Pusker, Gillian
Kaites is a cop.
Kill her.
Kill her now!
Her?
Make a fool of me?
Ha!
It would be my pleasure.
Take Big Eddie with you.
You, uh, you need some help?
I can handle it.
I don't see her.
[inaudible]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER): Once
I was out, I rallied the girls.
We don't have much time.
Donna, here's some gasoline.
When you get to the east
wing, pour it on the floor
and light it.
You get in trouble, use this.
Let me get Pusker.
I'll say hello for you.
Sharon, wait here for
me until I get back.
Let's move it!
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
We bribed some of the guards
to disappear.
Hey, what are you doing here?
I was hoping I could persuade
you to be on the letter board.
Hey, what's going on?
What Maxwell wants
doing, Kaites's dead.
And I want to make
sure she's real dead.
You never needed
artillery before.
When did you ever need a gun?
PUSKER: Gillian knows all
that damn karate shit.
She attacked Big Eddie,
and I want to make sure she
gets what's coming to her.
SCRUGGS: Yeah, but you
took Big Eddie with you.
Two against one?
PUSKER: I'm gonna put
these shells into her.
That'll stop her.
SCRUGGS: What if
she gets by you?
[background chatter]
Good night, guys.
[screaming]
Freeze!
[gunfire]
Gillian, get us out of here!
[women clamoring]
Going somewhere?
Give me the gun.
Don't be foolish.
Now, give me the gun!
[gunshot]
Fuck!
[explosion]
[women clamoring]
Hey, let me out!
That you, Kaites?
Come on in and get Coale.
I'm sick of this bellyaching.
I'm unarmed, and I swear
on my baby's grave.
[gunfire]
GILLIAN KAITES (VOICEOVER):
I could see that poor Sheriff
Coale was beyond help.
It's over!
[women clamoring]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): All the girls
ran as fast as they could.
Nobody looked back.
As for the place, I suppose
the authorities found it.
It didn't really concern me now.
[doorbell]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): We were
so happy to put it
all behind us that we
felt like little children.
Mom?
It's OK, Mom.
[crying]
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I never
realized how much I
took freedom for granted
until it was taken away.
While I was enjoying
myself at the party,
I couldn't help but
feel lucky for having
survived the whole ordeal.
I thought of Vicky, and all
those other poor women who
died in that horrible prison.
They would never be
able to enjoy life,
to taste the
sweetness of freedom.
I was grateful at least that
I was able to help Sharon.
This wonderful little girl
had made me care once again
about myself and other people.
Now, listen everyone.
We all know we're
here to pay tribute
to two wonderful people--
my lovely daughter, Sharon,
and my future son-in-law, Gary.
My friends, I'd like to make
a toast to the happy couple.
To Sharon and Gary--
may your lives be filled
with nothing but happiness.
I'm so happy for you.
What are you going to do now?
Well, I'm going to put
the pieces back together.
And we're going to
start a new life.
I'm gonna work for a
victims' rights organization.
That's great.
GILLIAN KAITES
(VOICEOVER): I would never
again lay down in submission.
I had learned that there
are times when we all
must fight for what is ours.
Nobody I knew would ever
have to suffer again.
Not if I could help it.
[gunfire]
