IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'RE FINE, OR IF HE'S WRONG. YOU'RE NOT TRYING TO REDEEM YOURSELF, KID, YOU'RE TRYING TO SAVE YOUR OWN LIFE, AND SOMETIMES THAT MEANS DOING SOMETHING HUMILIATING THAT YOU HATE BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY THROUGH.

[Pauuuuuuuse.]

There's--

[oh god.]

Bill, that is is--

[oh god he's doomed. His voice breaks, with a hoarse, horrible kind of laugh.]

Ha ha-- Bill, buddy, there's no way that's going to work. No offense, but did you just-- did you listen to yourself? No one's getting out of here by tightening the rack themselves like eventually the right bone is just gonna break. That's-- that's nuts.

If I have to be psychologically tortured and publicly humiliated to get out of here, I'm just going to let someone else take the lead on that.

[another hoarse, horrible laugh.]

Make them earn the stupid deal.

[another pause. Then softer:]

You get that-- whoever this place turns you into, you have to live with being that person?

How are you ever going to get there if you just hate everything about it?

audio - animal harm mention

[tetractys]

THE KEY WORD THERE IS 'LIVE.'

ANIMALS WILL CHEW OFF LIMBS TO GET OUT OF TRAPS. SOMETIMES YOU JUST DON'T GET TO COME THROUGH IN ONE PIECE BUT AT LEAST YOU COME THROUGH.
