He's facing hard time.
JUDY (O.C.)
He's got one right handed
personality.
GARY (O.C.)
Lots of people are ambidextrous.
JUDY (O.C.)
Ragen speaks and writes prefect
Serbo-Croation.
GARY (O.C.)
So do ten million Serbs.
JUDY (O.C.)
Apparently, Arthur's fluent in
Arabic and Swahili.
GARY (O.C.)
Having a facility for languages
doesn't automatically make you one
hand short for bridge.
JUDY (O.C.)
The escape artist, the wandering
eyes, the electronics expert...
GARY and JUDY.
GARY
All of that can be mastered.
JUDY
All by one person? With a hundred
I.Q.? From a small farm in Ohio?
You're looking for some kind of
miraculous, inexplicable "thing" to
prove this to you beyond a shadow of
a doubt. Well, it's an illness,
Gary... not a magic trick. And I
believe him.
GARY
(sighs heavily)
I do, too. And I feel like I can
convince my wife of it when she asks
me why I came down here for fifteen
minutes, and came back five hours
later. But how in hell am I ever
gonna convince a judge? Or a
prosecutor? No one's ever been
acquitted of a crime before by
blaming it on another personality.
JUDY
You won't have to. He will.
INT. ISOLATION CELL
BILLY sits on his cot in a cold sweat. Something is
clearly terrifying him. He looks across the cell toward a
piece of steel over the sink shiny enough to serve as a
mirror. He is frozen.
INT. OUTSIDE THE ISOLATION CELL
It's a big, opaque, steel door with a small opening two
thirds up in the middle. A GUARD approaches with keys.
There's a loud rumbling coming from inside.
GUARD
Alright, Milligan. Exercise time.
As he turns the key:
GUARD
One hour in the yard, all to
yourself.
As he opens the door:
GUARD
Come on... Milligan...
Now we see BILLY lying in a pool of blood on the floor.
The sink is smashed into a million pieces and his wrists
have been slashed lengthwise with a shard of porcelain.
Hot water shoots from the blood-stained sink like a
firehose gone haywire. He meant business. He's fainted
and landed on his own arm, which is saving his life. The
GUARD runs in.
GUARD
Help! We got an emergency! Quick!
INT. HOSPITAL WARD - NIGHT
BILLY lies in bed, staring off blankly, while GARY and
JUDY talk to him.
GARY
How ya feelin', Billy? You were out
for quite some time.
JUDY
Do you know where you are? You're
in the hospital, but you're gonna be
just fine. Your hearing is going to
go ahead as scheduled.
GARY
Well, why don't you get some rest.
We'll check in with you tomorrow.
JUDY
Goodnight, Billy.
He remains motionless. They leave and we follow them into
the hall.
JUDY
What do you think?
GARY
I don't know. But there were no
hammers or crowbars in that cell
with him. He broke that sink with
his bare fist.
INT. HEARING ROOM
MEMBERS OF THE ADULT PAROLE AUTHORITY, JUDY, BILLY and A
PROSECUTOR, along with a COURT STENOGRAPHER and TWO POLICE
OFFICERS. BILLY'S wrists are bandaged. GARY enters,
obviously agitated.
JUDY
(to Gary)
What's wrong?
GARY
I just found out they're gonna try
and send him to jail for a parole
