(A prison cell. Enter a burly guard, forcing the inmate to rise and stand nervously.) Voice: Jason Lombard was a good guard. He had class... Lombard: (drawing from a shaving kit) Which type of knuckles would you prefer? Brass or titanium? Voice: ...he had compassion... (The infirmary. Lombard bends to whisper into the ear of a patient bandaged from head to toe.) Lombard: Don't worry, we made sure to keep the blood off your letter to your mother. Voice: ...and he cared about what's right and what's wrong. (The cafeteria. Lombard wails on inmate #1 with his nightstick when he is approached by inmate #2.) Inmate #2: Stop! He was only trying to protect me from having to go to solitary confinement! Lombard: (Ceasing his violence) He was? Oh, then pardon me, sir. (Turning to inmate #2) Thank you. It was very noble of you to come forward. I wouldn't want to hospitalize the wrong man. (He brings his nightstick down on inmate #2's head with crushing force and proceeds to beat him senseless.) Voice: Ethics finds an unlikely home in one of the state's toughest correctional facilities with Jason Lombard, the Good Guard. |
