01x02 - You're a Horrible Criminal

[bunniefuu]

[tense music playing]

[Harley] Taylor!

- What? b*tch, I'm aggravated.

- Bowman, did you not hear what I said?

We on lockdown regardless.

No, I'm not on lockdown.

Yes you are, she just said.

Even Bree's on lockdown.

I'm not on no lockdown.

What am I on lockdown for?

I'm telling you. Watch.

You not gonna pop your f*cking door.

[Taylor] Man, hold on.

[tense music continues]

[clicks tongue] Man! [mumbles]

I'm just pissed off 'cause

now I'm on lockdown for nothing.

We ain't even fight.

[Taylor] What you go to do with anything?

Who you is?

The bag went bad.

- Now nobody ain't getting it.

- Deputy!

And now I got to stay

in here for 23 hours,

come out for an hour, every day

until they feel like letting me out.

[Harley] It's like we're in a box,

and then we come out off lockdown

and we're in a bigger box.

And then you go back on lockdown

and you're in a small box again.

I mean

this is no way

for anybody to have to live.

Okay, so,

Miss Jamie is gonna be written up.

17 is gonna be written up,

16 is gonna be written up.

- And also 19 is gonna be written up.

- Miss Magen is gonna be written up.

So then we gonna let the disciplinarian

determine what they gonna get.

They come off,

they go longer, 15, 10 days.

- Half

- The board will decide.

- So that's their disciplinarian Monday.

- Monday.

So they'll be on lockdown until that day.

Like I give a f*ck about lockdown.

[cawing]

["The Calling" by The Rigs playing]

Good morning.

[whirring]

[Steele] We got at least five females

on lockdown right now in three parts.

The four ladies plus

one of the fighters from last night.

[Picard] This is not a job for me,

this is my passion.

Me, I love a challenge.

I love a challenge.

[inmates clamoring]

[Steele] And just like that, bye.

- [woman] Why? Why it gotta be me?

- [Steele] Is why is bye. Thank you.

[Picard] Come on, let's go. Come on.

I ain't gonna take all day, bro.

This is not Burger King.

It's not Burger King, "have it your way."

I been here, like, 19 years.

I'm more like a mother figure.

Once I get mad, it's over with.

I'm serious.

Find you something safe,

and let me deal with this cell.

- Back up.

- I am safe, I'm not around y'all.

Well you need to go get

your Snickers, let it satisfy you.

Lieutenant Picard is like that inner

person that you wanna let out,

but you don't, because you're controlled,

but she don't control that person.

She that person.

And y'all know,

once this jacket come off, it's over with.

[Steele]

Me personally, I try to run my floor

like I run my household.

It's very structured.

Ah-ah-ah.

You came up here, finish up that walk.

It's all about control.

If you can maintain your control

in your pod, you have no problem.

That cell better be right

before that door get popped open.

I'm coming through

looking for spring cleaning.

- Does she know what spring cleaning mean?

- I don't know. I'm about to teach her.

- [Picard] Like a tag team.

- [Steele] It is.

It's like a tag team duo.

She's the fire, I'm the ice.

Or sometimes I might be fire

and she might be the ice.

So we kind of complement each other.

How you do a "Q" sign?

I be trying to tell Qwan I love him.

I be like

Like that?

You could do it like that.

- It depends on what you saying.

- Or down. It's a little G.

[Steele] Oh, you heard that, huh?

They sign languagin' on your floor.

I'm snitchin'.

Oh, but guess what.

I'm catching on to all your slangs.

You could best believe that.

You don't know that.

Watch me.

Look at her. Talking about,

"Watch me." Look at her.

What this is, "west side"? Wait. [laughs]

[Steele] You're not in LA.

- See, this is how you do it.

- You're not in LA.

Oh, I know it was something

y'all be doing.

This is N-O. Not L-A.

[laughing]

Y'all are a special bunch of ladies,

I swear y'all are.

Let nobody else tell y'all

nothing different.

What happened between Magen and Jamie

and Harley and all them and

All right, so

I think Taylor too, yeah.

Magen's dumb a*s puts money on

- Jamie's books.

- Jamie's books.

'Cause she can't order commissary

because she's on lockdown.

Taylor's like, "She'll probably fight you,

but she ain't gonna fight me."

- And she

- Magen was gonna fight.

I don't know.

No, but she should have never

put that money on the books.

- That was stupid from the get-go.

- Jamie's a shysty

I hate to say it, I mean,

I love her to death, whatever,

but she's institutionalized,

you know what I mean?

You can tell that's

how she lives on the outside and in.

That's all she does is hustle.

[Taylor] I don't want that.

I just want this out of my cell.

And I want some ice.

- You don't want this?

- No.

Give it to Harley.

[Taylor] I'm just ready to get

my f*cking life together

and get the f*ck out of here.

I'm f*cking 28 years old,

but I don't feel 28.

I feel f*cking 48.

But I've made decisions like

I'm eight.

["Analogue" by SINYI playing]

[Taylor] I'm in here for

two aggravated assaults with a firearm,

ill*gal firing of a weapon,

home invasion,

burglary,

and violating two restraining orders,

aggravated criminal property damage.

I don't know, my life is just

in shambles right now.

It's like sh*t just go, just go bad, like,

instant.

But we be stuck

'cause we don't got no help.

New Orleans is gruesome and heartbreaking.

Either our family on drugs

or we on drugs trying to cope with sh*t.

I I lost

My daddy was m*rder*d,

my step-daddy was m*rder*d,

my brother was m*rder*d.

Like,

that's just not right, like,

and it's just f*cked up.

[gentle music playing]

[Taylor] This is the first time I really

came to jail for something serious

and I'm just praying I could just

go home on probation

without doing no jail time.

I wanna get out, I wanna go back to school

and I wanna write books and

f*cking photography, and take pictures of

anything that I feel catch my eye

that I like to look at.

And raise my children, like,

and just be a parent full-time.

I have two daughters,

so they bring them every month

and we just spend like

two, three hours with them.

We eat, we do activities,

and you know, we just bond.

Girl Scouts is just like another form

of visitation, but it's like,

I could hug them,

I could touch them, you know,

instead of just talking on the phone

through a screen.

I'm not gonna be able to go

this week' cause of all this.

It's aggravating. I'm ready to just go,

I'm ready to get this sh*t over with.

[tense music playing]

We're gonna have a hearing,

a disciplinary hearing.

We're gonna have the offender

step in at this moment.

- Good morning.

- Have a seat.

Good morning, Miss Ellis.

- How you doing?

- You're before disciplinary board

for an incident that happened

on January 16th, 2020.

Yes, ma'am.

The charges you are being

have been accused of

possession of another person's property,

providing staff with false information,

interfering with the duties

of a staff member, and

property theft from another person.

How do you plead with

those charges, Miss Taylor?

Not guilty.

All three?

Yup.

So, I plead not guilty to, um,

- Providing staff?

- Providing staff with

false information.

And you plead guilty to the other three?

Yes, ma'am.

She could serve up to three,

as the minimum days,

and up to 15 days on segregation.

I say three, just because

they put the stuff in her cell.

So you have three days' credit

for time served.

- So that means you get off today.

- So today will be your last day.

- Oh, yes, ma'am. Thank y'all.

- You're welcome.

Do we want to give her the minimum?

- [both] Yes.

- The minimum, which is three days.

You already served, today's your last day.

You'll be off tomorrow.

Thank you.

Have a seat over there.

Miss Hall, good morning.

Good morning.

The charges you are accused of

Just one?

Interfering with duties of a staff member.

How do you plead with that one charge?

- Guilty.

- Guilty?

[tense music playing]

I feel like she should do

finish her time,

- That she already has.

- Okay.

Since she tried to beat the system,

and we could add

I think, five more days to that time.

I agree.

[Stamps] Lieutenant?

I agree.

Do you understand? You have

the remainder of the prior incident.

Mm-hmm.

And then you have

five more days added to that.

Okay.

Thank you, ma'am.

I would have talked my way

out of all this whole thing.

- Good on you.

- That, I'd have backfooted out of it.

I just hate when they just

lay down and not fight.

Like, give me a good argument. The men?

- The men will argue off your drawers.

- Yeah.

[atmospheric music playing]

Miss Evans, how do you plead

with your charges?

Guilty with a statement.

Go ahead with your statement.

Yes, ma'am, all that happened,

but listen, uh,

at first I did lie to Miss Picard

and Miss Steele, but in the end,

didn't I tell the truth?

- She did.

- I did tell the truth.

I told them, "I feel bad for lying

to y'all, let me tell y'all the truth."

Okay.

And, uh,

Bartholomew had money put on her books

week before last by inmate Hall.

To make store for her.

So let's tell it all.

Yes, let's tell it all.

Let's get it all out there in the open.

[interviewer] You gave up a name.

Oh, well.

[interviewer] Why?

Just to be dirty.

This is my first report.

Can you put a little leniency on me?

- I will try.

- All right, thank you.

- Have a seat.

- No, you have a seat.

Well, that's how you do it at St. Gabriel.

Good, but it's not over.

This is Orleans Parish.

Mm-mm. So,

we're gonna find you guilty

of the three charges.

The max of the time

that you can serve for this is 15 days.

Do you think she deserves 15 max?

- I would go half of the 15.

- [Stamps] Okay, we'll do seven.

So I get the max?

- That's half.

- Max would have been 15.

- Everybody else got three days.

- [Stamps] You Your part

- and their part was different.

- It's different.

Your charges are different.

Looks like you're gonna be seven days.

Credit for time served

- I won't tell the truth no more.

- [Steele laughs]

Yes, you will.

- Keep telling the truth.

- If you don't, you would have had 15.

So you're not thankful

for the seven days you haven't got

- Not at all.

- No?

- Bye, Miss Evans. Let her go.

- [Steele] I think you're good.

[Jamie] I want Bartholomew investigated.

[Steele] 10-4.

What you all gonna do with her?

- I don't know.

- Jesus!

- [Jamie shouting indistinctly]

- She's loud. You hear her?

She's a very loud person,

for a person so small.

So what you wanna do?

You wanna just do wraps

- instead of potato logs?

- No, we're doing potato logs too.

We're doing all this?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- [Amber] Hot pickle juice with Kool-Aid.

- [Julie] Okay, so it's sweet pickle?

[Amber] Sausage, tuna

- All right.

- hot pickle.

And this is my trash, cause I'm trifling.

[Crystal] Hot pickle, what's with that?

- You don't like spicy?

- I love spicy, I'm from the South, babe.

- You like me.

- All right.

[Julie] They got knives upstate?

- [Amber] No. In St. Gabriel.

- Where'd you come from?

I was in work release in,

um, Lake Charles.

Work release ain't really where

it's at, though, no more.

Them people work you like a dog and

disrespect you every chance they get.

Escaping work release was probably

one of the best things I did.

- I needed to get out.

- You see a chance and got to go.

[Messy Bun] I was a runaway a lot.

I ran away a lot.

Get out of Juvenile, run.

Break up with a boyfriend, run.

Once I got in foster care

I hated foster homes. Couldn't stand them.

So, I ran away.

Always on the run ♪

I lost a finger and everything,

running from the police.

I lost all feeling in it.

Maggots came out my finger

before I got it cut off

'cause I was scared to go to the hospital,

because of the police.

[Julie] So, how did you escape?

- From, um, work release.

- Girl, listen,

- you just

- [laughter]

[Amber] We had a window in my bedroom,

and then I took some Klonopin.

- Ooh!

- And,

in my mind, I'm telling my loaded self,

"Am, you can make it out of

a second story window."

[tense music playing]

Like the as*h*le I was, on Klonopin,

I jumped out the window.

Took off running.

I jumped two barbed wire fences,

ran through the woods,

was cut up from all the thorn bushes.

I made it to a little gas station,

and, um, some man pulled up

and I told him that my old man

just beat the sh*t out of me and

- Hmm. You're running.

- [laughs]

that I took off running,

and he brought me to the bus station,

gave me some money to get a bus ticket,

and I made it all the way

down here overnight.

That reminds me of something I did

years ago, it was so stupid.

- Tell me. Come on, tell me.

- But I got away with it.

After Katrina,

a guy staying across from me,

he had a stolen truck.

[Julie] He had a stolen truck off

the showroom floor.

[Crystal] The boy next door?

[Julie] The boy across the hall.

He had a stolen truck off the showroom,

'cause after Katrina, they did that.

- They took trucks.

- [Crystal] Yeah.

- I mean, and just went wherever.

- Yeah.

It even had the things that hold the tire

from moving in the back of the truck.

He said, "You can use my truck."

I went and took his f*cking truck,

and I took off to Tallahassee.

[engine revving]

- [Julie] It was a stolen truck already.

- [Crystal] Yeah.

- You re-stole the stolen truck? [laughs]

- Re-stole the stolen truck.

And I just I get paranoid because

I saw a cop, um, circle.

Well, I pull over and I f*cking just

walk out the truck and leave it.

Well, I saw a park with a pond.

I jumped in that f*cking pond, took off

my pants, and I ran into a guy sitting

and said, "This guy was trying to r*pe me.

Please, can you bring me to my hotel?"

And he f*cking did it,

that's why it reminded me of that.

That was crazy. That was wild.

And I ended up getting caught

I had cocaine in my hotel room.

Ended up getting caught with that cocaine,

and that's what got me

in the trouble I was in to go to prison.

Well, just think about it.

The sh*t that we done and did

Man, I'm lucky I didn't get k*lled.

[announcer] Pill call, ladies.

Get out and have a cup of water

ready for the officer.

Pill call.

Well, I'm ready right here.

I'm the first one.

I'm just here to get my meds, Miss Levar.

I got to make sure that

they're taking their medicine,

make sure that they're not

trying to hover it, or you know,

put it in their cells or, you know,

do whatever with it.

I just need my BuSpar.

- My anxiety's bad.

- [woman] Yeah, I'll bet it is.

A 30 milligram BuSpar

is just, like, the hot thing.

- Ah!

- It's a non-narcotic anxiety pill.

So what it makes you feel like is like

you just smoked a bunch of weed.

I get my own BuSpars

three times a day, and then

I get other people's during the day too.

You got it?

You gonna give me a little bit?

Yeah, I buy other people's medication.

[Heather] She said she got a 30 for sale

for two snacks.

30 milligram BuSpar cost two snacks,

which is usually like a noodle and a chip.

[Juicy] I get BuSpars.

And I don't like taking them,

I don't really need them,

so I sell them.

Ah, ha, ha!

If they want my pills,

they got to have something

I'm interested in.

Like maybe braid my hair.

I keep my towel game up, you know, soap.

I take commissary, of course.

Anything I want and they got,

I'mma get it.

Okay. Candace.

This my girl.

Life here is,

just do whatever you have to do

to get through to the next day.

Whether it be snorting BuSpars,

talking in the toilet,

whatever it is

that gets you through till tomorrow

without shedding a tear, without breaking,

without letting this place break you.

That That's what it's about.

[hard rock music plays]

[Heather]

I got a possession of crack charge.

Uh, my very first felony

that I've had since, ever.

Right now, I'm here

on a parole violation.

I got caught with a bottle of Xanax

and I've got my second felony.

Yeah. In less than a year.

Hold on, let me go grab it for you.

Hold on.

I know everybody.

I wheel and deal with everybody.

Diamond, downstairs,

she wanted a BuSpar, so

I went and asked Candace

if she had a BuSpar.

She gave me

a little piece of one in my hand

so I'm walking down the stairs,

and Miss Stevenson saw it

and was like, "What's in your hand?"

Huh? It's

Uh

I'm coming. [chuckles]

I walked towards her

but I dropped it on the floor

right underneath the chairs.

[tense music playing]

You throwed it on the floor?

Girl, what? Baby, I didn't throw nothing.

- All right.

- All right.

[Heather] I just got caught,

so I got to go pick it up off the floor.

All right?

- By Stevenson.

- [inmate] Oh!

So give me a second, okay?

[Heather] Tsk.

Yeah, you heard it?

Oh, you about to do

designs on her head?

Know what I'm saying?

Is this yours or hers?

All right, can I have some of yours?

Just a sip.

[tense music continues]

[indistinct chatter]

[Heather] Huh?

Over there by the chairs.

[chuckling]

[tense music rising]

Huh? By Diamond.

You got it?

All right.

- Girl, I just got busted.

- What are you talking about?

She said, "What you got in your hand?"

I said, "thunk."

Fingers.

Fingers. I said, "What you wanna see?

Nothing? Nothing?"

"Oh, girl, I'm not stupid."

I'm gonna try to get up

in my cell real fast.

- So I can get that

- Me, too.

- [Stevenson] Heather.

- Yeah.

Come here.

So, what you really did

when you went down there?

I went and I got a Tylenol

and I gave one

But you can't do that.

You supposed to take all your pills.

[Heather]

Okay. Don't Don't lock me down.

[Stevenson] I gotta You gotta lock down.

[unlocking door]

I mean, I told you the truth.

You told me the truth,

but that's not the point.

Okay, so what's gonna happen?

I'm gonna be on lockdown all day?

You writing me up?

Ugh!

What the f*ck?

I never thought that I would be

34 years old in this place, like

[laughs]

It's surreal.

[Picard] You learned your lesson?

Yeah.

- For real?

- For real.

So when you come out, what you gonna do?

What's your changes?

Ooh.

I'm not gonna put my money

on crackhead's books ever again.

[Picard] But you the one who started this,

to be honest with you.

Trying to beat the system. Let's say that.

I paid her to do something for me.

But you know it wasn't

You trusted in her?

She did it last week.

Oh, really? Hmm, okay.

- News I can use.

- You know what?

- See what I'm doing, Picard?

- Oh, that's so nice, Jamie.

- So you can take a break.

- You know what, though?

You could have been doing all that

and you wouldn't have did what you did.

All right, and I told you

the truth, didn't I?

Something inside of me was like,

man, just tell her the truth.

Don't lie to Picard.

Picard don't ever do you wrong.

I never I helps!

Right. Can I apologize to Magen?

To me, to be honest with you,

it takes a woman to apologize.

- What I say, what you want me to do?

- No, don't do it because I want you to.

- You got to be within your heart.

- All right.

- And you got to be sincere.

- All right, come here.

Man, listen, listen, listen!

I don't even wanna be the b*tch,

but listen, I don't want

to hear this sh*t. For real.

She a straight flock.

So you don't want her

to apologize, Magen?

She a flock!

She can't f*ck with me.

She not Listen, I don't want to hear it.

So, there's something you really

wanted to apologize,

- or you just doing it to be doing it?

- Just to do it.

- If you're not sincere, then go ahead.

- I'm sincere with you!

- Right, but why

- That's all that matters, right?

[blues music playing]

Julie!

[laughs]

Heather.

Miss Stevenson is on one today.

I was getting a BuSpar,

Candace just handed it to me.

And she's like, "Heather, come here."

Girl, I dropped it.

But I went back and picked it up

and she followed me.

I told her I gave her a Tylenol.

You can get Tylenol on commissary.

- So

- Oh, f*ck.

And she's writing me up.

- How long do you think I'm gonna be here?

- [scoffs] You get

Um, if she writes you up, you can get,

you can get 30 f*cking days for it.

I hope it's not that long.

Clean your room up

cause they might do a shakedown on us.

- Huh?

- Get rid of all your straws and sh*t

- and clean your room.

- All right.

I got to go get something out of my room.

[scoffs]

f*ck it, it is what it is, baby.

[Heather]

Well, I have everything in the world.

I have a great man, I have, um,

a brand-new car at home,

I've got my own house.

I've got all the money in the world,

and, I just can't get it right.

And it's just me being an addict.

I can't deal with everyday life.

I've been an addict since I was 14.

Born in Chicago.

I was raised there

until I was about eight.

Um, me and my mom

don't have the best relationship,

so, um, I was sent down to Biloxi

to live with my father,

and um, my I mean, I got in a lot of

trouble growing up as a kid.

[tense music playing]

[Heather] I started hopping trains

and, like, traveling.

You know, coming from Biloxi down here,

um, the Mardi Gras after the hurricane

I hopped my first train.

And to be honest with you,

I moved down here

because I was a heroin addict

and there was no heroin in Mississippi,

so I moved down here where it was.

I want to be able to stay out of jail and

stay sober and be okay.

[interviewer] How do you do that?

I don't know.

You know? It's hard.

["Kiss Me Like Summer"

by Sam Shrieve playing]

Thanks.

[indistinct chatter]

- [inmate] What is it?

- [Harley] It's Jambalaya.

[inmate] Let me see!

[indistinct chatter]

[laughing]

- You want some pap?

- No.

[Harley] I will be leaving in less than

48 hours on almost a year incarceration.

I'm nervous, but I'm very excited.

Laura, since you're my monkey,

you approve of this message, correct?

- Message?

- Our plans?

- What message?

- For lockdown?

- Yeah.

- Okay, just wanted to double-check.

So, we might have a little, you know,

going away party or whatever

to send me off.

Robin.

- [Robin] Robin and

- Me, you.

- Ask Magen and Nancy.

- You're welcome.

And you're more than

welcome to join us, but

I don't know if you want to lock down

in our room for lockdown.

We're allowed to do that?

No, not necessarily.

We have to make a dummy in our bed,

and we have to hide underneath

the bed which is gonna kinda be a problem.

You don't have to.

We're inviting you in case you wanna come.

[giggling]

I have a million emotions right now,

but I know that I have been

through things with these women

that nobody's gonna be able to forget.

[chuckles]

I'm trying to get

a group of people in my room.

[Nancy] Who else is sleeping over?

Um,

Robin is,

and, um

Who's Robin?

Last time I was in here, last year,

I knew I wasn't gonna get it together.

This time, it's a completely different

a completely different vibe.

Um, and when I get home,

starting before I get home,

but really when I get home,

I'm wiping my hands of it.

My son, he's five.

He turned five January 1st.

I'm 23,

so I had him when I was 18.

I need to change the way that I act.

'Cause I always had that excuse.

"Well, he's young, he won't remember.

He's young, he won't remember."

Now, he's gonna remember.

That's actually I wanna read something.

Can I read something?

Can I get it from my folder?

It's not really a poem,

but it's a, like a just a piece.

It says, "Mommy is sick.

She's at the doctor."

"Mommy is at work.

Mommy is at Mom School."

"Mommy can't lie anymore.

You're getting old enough to understand."

"I'm in big girl timeout

for making bad choices."

"I have to change my behavior."

"My name is Harley Himbor

and I'm an addict."

"My clean date is 1-1-20,

and my drugs of choice are

crack cocaine, heroin, and meth."

"I pray every day I make it home to my son

so he doesn't fall in my footsteps."

"I love you, son.

I will fight my hardest for us."

That made me feel like,

"Okay, it's time."

Like, I'm really ready.

My friends are at their wit's end,

my parents are at their wit's end.

Like, my sister's at her wit's end.

Everybody's at their wit's end with me,

and losing all these relationships

is not something I'm willing to

forfeit for another five years

of partying, if I make it five years.

[indistinct shouting]

Mellow!

Oh my God!

[Nancy] You heard him?

[Magen] Fu Fu!

[male inmate] Hey, what's up girls?

[all screaming]

I was just yelling for Fu,

and I guess they're out

in the yard of whatever,

so I can hear him yelling right now.

Yo!

I love him!

I miss him so much.

Oh, man.

Fu Fu!

[Stevenson] Do not stand in that window.

[Magen] My bad.

[Magen]

I'm gonna go talk in the toilet now.

Some guys play cards.

[Fu Fu] Some guys watch TV.

Some guys doing the phones.

And some guys get in the toilet.

You know, we guys,

so we wanna hear a woman's voice.

You know, it's a sensual thing.

What you doing?

[Magen]

We've been talking for a few weeks.

It's like, three or four weeks,

but it seems like longer than that.

We don't have nothing to do

but talk all day, so we know, like,

everything about each other.

Mediterranean food.

He's 29,

he's tall. He's got some long, curly,

good hair.

[Fu Fu] She likes to listen to

um, rap, R&B, pop.

[Magen] I haven't really just seen him

up close and personal,

but I've seen him

through the door and stuff.

You start out as just friends.

You know, just conversation

starting out as friends until, you know,

one thing leads to another.

I love him because

he's helping me, like,

forget about a lot of sh*t

that's going on.

She's on a pretty, you know, bad charge.

["Gepard" by Mai Ligne playing]

[Magen] I was basically like living free,

doing what I wanted to do.

I came with two

of my friend girls from Memphis,

and we were just down here for Mardi Gras.

It's like, um, letters Life, L-I-F-E.

Well, how many years

or how many months they have.

Okay.

[Harley]

It can be all fun and games in here, and

It's not.

This place is not fun.

I do want bigger and better things

for myself, and for my child.

I'm very, um,

worried about

how my decisions

will affect him later in life

if I don't get myself together.

I'm just tired of being around so many

females in one place. It's too much!

Too many personalities,

too much attitudes.

Too much different opinions on things.

Way too much f*cking drama.

It's time to get my life together.

I don't tell anybody this because

I don't want them to think anything.

Actually, my past is

My background is corrections.

Yeah.
