“He took control of me for forty-five minutes. This time Ill have control over him for the rest of his life. If he gets out fifteen years from now, Ill know. Ill check on him every three months through police computers. If he makes one mistake hes going down again. Ill make sure. Im his worst enemy now.”

“No! I am not Prince Hamlet, nor was meant to be:
Am an attendant lord, one that will do
To swell a progress, start a scene or two,
Advise the prince.”
