An Innocent Man

An Innocent Man1989



Jimmie Rainwood:
[Jimmie visits Virgil in the prison welding shop] Hey! How did you get my pass set up?

Virgil Cane:
Works around the joint. We do things for each other. Listen, somebody's gotta give you the game or you're f***ed. It's simple in here. An insane place with insane rules. It all ends up being logical. If you're white, you hang white. Otherwise, the n*ggers are gonna eat you alive. [Rainwood hangs head in disinterest] You're not listening to me! Civil rights, brotherly love, all that sh*t, that gets left at the front gate. Right now you got a problem with Jingles. Now you can go to the Aryan Brotherhood for help... that a**hole Butcher and his party. But in the end, they'll make you their kid. You'll be part of the AB for life. Or you can handle your problem by yourself. I got respect in here 'cause I earned it... anybody f***s with me, it's their life. [Jimmie turns on his heel to leave]

Virgil Cane:
Hey! Where are you going?

Jimmie Rainwood:
You talked and I listened.

Virgil Cane:
Hey! Hey... don't you be talking out of the side of your neck when I'm trying to do you a solid.

Jimmie Rainwood:
[returns] All right, all right. Let's get it all out on the table. Every time I turn around, someone's giving me advice. Mostly it's about killing. So what's your interest in me?

Virgil Cane:
There's not much chance I'm ever getting out of here. Those cops of yours are part of the reason. That's what we've got in common. I got my last armed robbery conviction behind them. The rest is my business. [puts mask on and resumes welding]
