I'm not talkin' about that.
I'm asking you How come you can get away With murder? what? wesley's not the one who Killed that girl.
well, they did 2 trials, Jeremiah.
you talked to him? That boy's So simple, he couldn't figure Out how to murder a hot dog.
He just in the wrong place At the wrong time, that's all.
how do you know this? Were you tre? no.
I spent 11 years in a cell With the man who was.
so you're saying somebody Confessed to you.
bragged was more like it.
he told me all the gory Details, too.
He was a sick Bastard.
that doesn't make any sense.
you spent your life behind Bars like I have, nothin' Makes sense.
You know how many Innocent men there are on death Row just 'cause they couldn't Afford to write a lawyer? Please.
let me ask you something-- Why are you telling me this? Why haven't you said anything To the warden? what would that get me? They'd just tell me I'm crazy.
You the one that need to be Told.
You see, freedom is A heavy burden, And seeing as how god saw fit to Give it to you, it's only fair That you have to pay the price.
Tomorrow, wesley's blood Will be on your hands.
hi.
Thanks for coming.
no problem.
sorry they're so ridiculous With the rules.
oh, it's no problem.
Hmm.
I know it's weird I called you.
But at t end of the day, I just feel more comfortable With you.
I mean, you've been Through this with him.
Can I ask you a personal Question? Do you regret your abortion? sometimes.
I mean, sometimes I think it Would have been nice to have A son, no matter how imperfect.
Be nice to have someone toove And care for.
Maybe then I wouldn't have Married christian.
You know, that's a chapter I could have easily done Without.
you must think I am Completely insane For doing this for him.
you know, I didn't come here to advise You.
I just-- I came to drive you home.
yeah, I understand.
listen At the time, I just-- I didn't think I could raise A child by myself.
And I kn that I if I had A down syndrome baby with Christian, it would be By myself.
yeah.
But the thing is is that I-- I wanted to have this baby So bad, and I begged him.
I mean, I begged him.
And I even thought, maybe like You, you know, I could just Do it ony own.
And then, I even entertained The idea of Marry you? yeah.
We're both not getting Any younger.
Everybody has got Baggage.
Divorce, kids.
The important thing Is that you find the right Person that you want to spend The rest of your life with.
but in the end, it's Christian that I just can't live Without.
And I just want to be With him, liz.
I want to marry Him.
I just want to spend The rest of my life with him, I always have.
And that's what I want more than Anything, even more than this Baby.
And I know it sounds Awful-- no, it doesn't.
And I know, You haveot bad case Of christian.
You got it worse thaany of us.
I know! God.
The thing is, I know that I have Screwed up so bad with jenna.
I mean, it's painful for me.
So I guess I just wanted Christian to see that I could Be-- kimber henry? hi.
Ok.
I'm going to do this.
you know it's going to be ok.
Right? I mean, who knows? In a year, christian might want Another baby.
Right? maybe.

Hmm.
Your fever's going down.

You're gonna be fine.
And when you feel better, It's not gonna seem so bleak, Ok? Girl scout promise.
Get some rest.
>welcome home.
lizzie.
To what do I owe the pleasure? I was helping kimber.
ahh.
she's not feeling so well, But I think she's finally Gone to sleep.
would you just stop speaking In code? Just tell me what's Going on.
I drove her home from The hospital.
mm-hmm.
after she had The procedure.
so she got rid of it? yeah.
She got rid of "it.
" wow.
Wow.
Well, I guess that means I'm getting married.
Well, you know, I guess I Should, ahem, go congratulate The misses.
oh, no, please.
Don't.
There were complications.
what kind of complications? a perforation.
Her cervix was retroverted.
lizzie, stop it with this.
Just please, say it.
she can't have any more Children.
Not that that matters to you, Because you don't want any more, Right? Now I know she's no mother Teresa, but she cannot have Any more babies.
So if at some point in the Future you decide to leave her, Put that little piece of Information into the equation As a reminder of just what She gave up to be with you.
why did she come to you Instead of coming to me? why? Because she was scared, And I had done it before.
And because I was not the one Who told her to do it.
did you come to tell me The deal's off? what? No! We come to bring you this.
Can't have you heading out On your first day of freedom In the same rags you came in Here in.
we checked with the warden.
You can take that back to your Cell and change while you wait For your release.
thanks.
you're welcome! so this means wesley's going To b.
.
in an hour.
they figured out a way to do It without pain, then? that's why we're here.
To make sure the doses are Correct, to answer any questions Before they put him to sleep.
what made you change your Mind? I didn't change my mind.
I always thought wesley should Pay for what he did.
Just like anyone who commits A crime should.
all right, sean, come on.
He's paid plenty for his Mistakes.
Haven't you? I mean, it's not Like you murdered or raped Anybody, like that asshole.
I know you're going to be a good Boy, aren't you? yeah, that's right.
you promise? mm-hmm.
you see? He's gonna be A changed man.
wait.
There's something I need to tell You guys fir.
About wesley and the execution.
what? He's told people what? that if he ever gets out of Here, he'll do it again.
He's a very sick man, And you should have no remorse For what you're doing.
And I'm sorry for what I said To you.
I know you were just trying to Do the right thing.
You're my dad and I love you.
I don't want to see this.
you don't have a choice.
It's part of the deal.
We're the only ones who know how Much fat we sucked out of him.
They want to stop murderers, They should televise this shit.
if they want to abolish The death penalty, they should Televise it.
We shouldn't have done this.
no regrets, all right? I mean, come on.
This guy Was going to die anyway.
And now your son loves you Again, right? It's a good thing.
Besides, we've seen people die Before.
Hell, we threw them In the swamp.
This is painless and justified.
you trying to convince me Or yourself? the prisoner wants to see You two.
Is it supposed to hurt this bad? we haven't administered The drugs yet, wesley.
no, I mean the surgery.
I was up puking all night.
I couldn't eat my last meal.
didn't they give you The pain meds? I asked about them, but they Said it would interfere With--with the stuff.
one of you want to double Check my numbers? I've never seen this much Sodium thiental prescribed.
that's kind of the point.
can't we just give him some Versed to calm him down? The barbiturates won't be Affected-- this isn't beverly hills.
the incision's infected.
You didn't see that? guys, as long as the numbers In the file are correct, It's all gonna be fine.
yeah, they're fine.
time to go.
Tell me it's not going to hurt.
Tell me it's not going-- it's not going to hurt.
Wesley, look at me.
It's not going to hurt, I promise, ok? You're just gonna Go to sleep.
oh.
mr.

Do you have any final words? calling it at 3:17 p.
M.
